Content Cultures examines this key moment of digital affluence and creativity as the BBC embraced user-generated content across the news, civic and creative spheres.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBased on original research, the book explores the resources generated using UGC, from Blast to Adventure Rock, from the BBC Hub to Newsround and The Archers message boards. Whether UGC referred to citizen journalism, oral and digital\u003cbr\u003estorytelling, the civic, political or creative engagement of young people, disseminating stories from local communities, or reflecting on historical moments, it appeared to promote and transform longstanding BBC agendas into and within a digital era. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book also presents the lessons we need to carry forward as the digital and new media landscape evolves, and as the\u003cbr\u003eBBC continues to shape this terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eSimon Popple is Senior Lecturer in Cinema and Director of Impact and Innovation in the Institute of Communications Studies at Leeds University, UK.
