About Chris Russell
I'm the Head of Product Management for Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Journalism. My job title is one of those Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú classics which means very little to the outside world, but my team of product managers provides a key role in the ongoing development of various Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú interactive services.
We study how our audiences' needs are changing, our editorial colleagues' priorities and what the changing technology can offer. We turn these ideas into services which our designers and technical teams can build, and which you - the audience - will want to use.
The "products" we manage include all of Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Sport's , mobile services and , their equivalents from Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú News and Weather and many of our local, regional and international services.
So, while it's no longer my only objective, sport remains my first love. Previously I was Development Editor of Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Sport Interactive and part of the launch team for in 2000. We've come a long way since then but I believe all of the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú's interactive services have a lot further to travel amid the current relentless and breathtaking pace of change.
My sole aim here is to share some of what we're up to and get constructive feedback but forgive me if I occasionally stray onto , , , and the rest of my sporting passions.
