Another day on the run, but I’ve had time to track down these:
- Yahoo ad gone awry. This photo of real-life ad juxtaposition made me laugh out loud. And then it made me realize what a full-on geek I’ve become.
- Citizen Journalism, not perfect, just good enough. A tale of the often-overlooked first part of the term “citizen journalist.”
- Hate being a 97-pound weakling? Alan Mutter has some wise words for newspapers: get better and start charging more for your journalism and your ad rates.
- Blogging Breaking News: When a Big Story Happens in Your Backyard. Chip Scanlan interviews Mike Gangloff of the Roanoke Times about the use of blogs for breaking news. Instructive. Update: Today he expands the coverage with an interview with reporter Greg Esposito.
- Why can’t newspapers get linking right? Paul Bradshaw wonders how newspapers will ever adapt to a new age when they can’t get something as basic as linking down.
- Journalists: How to Feed the Blogging Beast. Amy Gahran has some help for those newspaper writers who want to (or are being asked to) add blogging to their workload.
