Interactive transparency 
| | ...where are his posts about HDNet? HD programming is a nascent market segment, and HDNet is doing some big deals (including rebroadcasting NBC's Summer Olympics coverage). Could it be that his good business sense prevents him from airing his dirty laundry in an area that's still highly competitive? Maybe he's more interested in the Mavs (always a possibility!), or maybe he thinks no one's interested in HDNet except for a few geeks. I don't know, so I asked him. |
| | Update: Wow, that was fast: an almost-instant response from Mark. Short and to the point: "Not much new or interesting to say about HDNet... we get the best programming we can, we play it..." Fair enough. Thanks, Mark. |
More how than what
| | Many2Many: Redefining friendship. ... the more the friends relax the rules that are supposed to guide behavior: If I'm your friend, you don't have to ask permission before you take off your shoes and if your feet stink, I don't exercise my right to insist that you re-shoe yourself. Principles are what we resort to when relationships are weak. Acceptance and forgiveness based on delight ... that's what I see in common among the relationships in my "friends" bucket. |
Welcome to the 'sphere
Frame out
| | The bottom line is people are fed up with bad journalism and so blogs are a nice complimentary addition to get additional information on a story, fact checking, and for adding more complexity to the discourse. It is because of linking, which is the basis for online conversation across blogs, and our ability to find those who link to us, that makes the blog AND journalism social media equation different than what existed before the internet, between journalism and the public. Journalism used to be a very one-way affair (despite letters to the editor which relied on a big time lag, and a different place for publishing the letters than the articles discussed in the letters -- front page verses page D9). Neither form, blogging or journalism, is a replacement for the other. In fact, they need each other and could not exist or live without each other at this point. Bloggers rely heavily on the reporting done in news stories, and Journalists often rely on stories bubbling up on the blogosphere -- for both framing and a pointer to sources and events. But far more important is the social interaction and increased quality of discourse that occurs now that the internet with the rapid interactive quality of personal publishing is possible with the social technology tool that is blogging, as it mixes with traditional media. |
| | On the whole I agree, except that I believe blogs are journals and therefore blogging is a form of journalism. |
| | The big difference is in the practice. |
| | A bonus (and belated) Happy Birthday to Sheila Lennon, one of the best pros practicing in both formats. |

Too hard for crackpot listeners to file indecedency complaints so lets have Radio do it. The FCC has a proposed NPRM that basically says radio stations have to record all their content, 24 hours a day 7 days a week, or the hours between 6 am and 10 pm.
Great time to be in the digital recorder biz..
