Today’s annotated reading list:
- Pounding the keys…pondering life… I’m still looking for the essential book on video storytelling. I Cyndy Green works through today’s list of subjects she wants to blog about, I may have found it.
- The Elements of Digital Storytelling. This, found through Angela Grant, may help me, too.
- The Original (and Future?) Facebook. Derek Willis doesn’t post as often as he should, given the interesting ideas he has for newspapers to better use the data they already have.
- Teens care little about news – Harvard. Not sure why we still have to have studies that point out things we already know. How do we get teens interested in news? A better question might be how do you get teens to do anything they’re not interested in? It’s not like we can cut their allowance.
- Martin Belam: British newspaper search plugins for Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox 2. Smart. And logical. Via Martin Stabe.
- Why a Denver furniture store keeps running newspaper ads. The reasoning: “”There are more and better filters for people to be able to weed out ads,” says American Furniture Warehouse’s marketing director. “But if you’re getting a newspaper and you’re reading it, you have no new filter for that ad. What other media can say that?” Except there is still a filter, and a very effective one: the reader. When I read a print edition, I rarely see the ads.
