Agos Broadcast on the Internet
After long-running preparations, the Agos newspaper’s web-site, Agos Internet, will begin publication in English and Turkish pages with a brand-new look. In this way, readers from all over the world will be able to access news, commentary and files dealing with political and cultural developments in Turkey and concerning the life of Turkey’s Armenian community by means of Agos-Internet.
The principal goal of Agos-Internet, broadcast from the www.agos.com.tr (www.agos.com.tr/eng/ for English version) adress will be to make the content of the Turkish-Armenian language Agos newspaper available to its members in an on-line context. The newspaper’s daily news, society, art and culture, middle and back pages, commentary from staff and guest writers, history, cinema sections and dossier subjects will all be available on the website. The Armenian pages of Agos will also be accessible for the subscribers.
Not just satisfied to merely provide the content of the print magazine for access by computer, Agos-Internet also aims to direct its efforts towards the construction of a new concept of publishing, appropriate to the internet medium, and, in time, building up its own unique spirit and identity. Appropriate to this goal, through week-long news and commentary in the areas of politics, current affairs, art and culture, Agos Internet will try to present content that will keep its members’ fingers on the pulse not only of the Armenian community in Turkey, but also the whole of Turkey and even the whole world. The Internet site will be the bearer of the Agos newspaper’s peace-loving, humanist and universalist principals in the virtual world.
Members of Agos-Internet will be able to access back-issues from the site archives, just like from print archives, by means of headword searches. At this moment, Agos’ March 30 2007- March 25 2005 issues have been archived on the internet. Archival work is continuing and, in a very short time, all of the back issues from Agos’ founding in 1996 until the present will be fully accessible.
