- Update 1: LA Fire Department using Twitter. Yikes.
- Big audio dynamite: How newspapers can kill the radio star (or how to read your newspaper while driving to work). John Duncan, aka The Inksniffer, not only really, really likes The Economist in audio, he also makes a good case that this is a space where newspapers could profitably play.
- Falling Costs for Online Ads–Headches for AOL, Yahoo and Newspapers. Newspapers, faced with declining revenues from print and looking online for (eventual) salvation, don’t need to hear this. It seems inevitable, though, in the post-scarcity information world.
- Another US daily cuts costs as profits plunge. This time the Orange County Register, which not that long ago was being touted as a fine example of how to compete against bigger players.
- Videojournalism: How-to implement it and why newspapers can beat TV. Editor’s Weblog talks to David Dunkley Gyimah about how newspapers can make video work. Solid, solid advice.
- The 14 Messages of New Media. Robert Logan extends Marshall McLuhan’s insights to encompass the new media age. Fascinating and important.
