Changing times – we’re always one step ahead

From compiling a news sheet back in the 1960s to sending breaking news directly to your smartphone, the way in which we deliver the news has completely evolved over the past 49 years.

At the turn of the century, the development of new Internet-based technology revolutionised the distribution of content. The Zululand Observer was quick to embrace the digital revolution, evolving into a multi-platform information agency.

And now, partnering with PressReader, we are venturing even further, always remaining in step with the latest media trends and staying in tune with our community’s changing needs.

 

At Caxton, we employ humans to generate daily fresh news, not AI intervention. Happy reading!
