This is today's Reno Gazette-Journal; click on the image for a bigger view. Leveraging "reader-generated content" like crazy, Gannett newspapers this month are encouraging hundreds of thousands of readers to submit holiday photos. Here's one from the Reno paper's site; kind of reminds me of a Diane Arbus shot:
One of the most popular send-us-your photo categories: Christmas light displays. The Gazette-Journal has a clever twist: The paper is using Google maps to plot reader-recommended displays so they're easier to find. "If you have a holiday display or know of one," the paper asks, "take a picture and submit it to us." That's smart!The Gazette-Journal at a glance:
