- Viva la Digital Media Revolución, aka “newspapers-are-failing-how-will-the-industry-survive?” is popping up quite a bit these days (if you haven’t noticed). Check out these sites on the subject:
- Mediashift (see logo above): Nice holistic coverage by PBS that covers “legacy media,” social media, buinsess education, culture and more.
- Eat Sleep Publish: A small, intelligent and insightful site on the future of publishing. Blogger Jason Preston presents a balanced perspective of big legacy media mixed with blogging.
- Editor Chat: A TweetChat hosted by Tim Byers and Lydia Dishman that brings together writers and editors to discuss in real-time the digital revolution. Prominent editors often moderate the chat, which is every Wednesdays from 5:30-7pm PST. Read my post on Editorchat here.
Tweet of the Week, by @megfowler:
Blogging is not a natural moneymaker. Killer content is.
How to Make Money Online: be generous with high-value content. Don’t believe me? Take it from these two pros. All you really need to read here are the titles:
- Dosh Dosh: Give Before You Try to Get
- Shoemoney says: What People Trying To Make Money Online Blogging Don’t Get
Blame it on Twitter, but the short form is here to stay. Microstyle: How to Get the Most out of Every Word and Phrase is the tentative title of an upcoming book by highly respected “The Name Inspector” (Christopher Johnson).
- Robert Scoble predicts something very strange, but plausible. Just read for yourself.
Ever get sunk on a word that confuses you, but you’re too embarassed to ask for help? Then you’ve got to try this handy, clever tool referred to me by Mary Ellen James.
