Deployment Details

Pluck's relationship with Cox began with the Austin American-Statesman in 2005. The first major city publication to embrace open community blogging, the Statesman chose SiteLife to power a rich personal publishing network that includes thousands of Austin residents blogging on Statesman.com and Austin360.com. The Statesman now utilizes the extended SiteLife social media platform, including Comments and Personas, to maximize reader engagement and contribution.

Additionally, the central COXnet division has licensed BlogBurst for all major Cox Newspaper properties. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Austin American-Statesman, Palm Beach Post and Dayton Daily News use BlogBurst across dozens of major topical areas, ranging from sports and entertainment to breaking news coverage.
