It's good to have some practical "do this" ideas for those of us trying to put these ideas into play in newsrooms. Another argument I hear in Bradshaw's blog is that the focus on technology (video cameras, editing software, etc.) is Web 1.0 thinking as well. I was looking into a training session put on by Knight and they required editors to promise a $2,000 investment in tech in the next year as part of the application process. That's fine, but the techniques they should be teaching are what you're describing here: blogging, crowd-sourcing, mashups -- living online. Web 2.0 doesn't mean a big investment in "stuff". It means a sea-change in reporter culture. Thanks for this. It’s good to have some practical “do this” ideas for those of us trying to put these ideas into play in newsrooms.
