The Age, now also on your mobile
The Age yesterday had this flyer inserted with the newspaper. This is a clever promotion around access to The Age through Telstra BigPond on a mobile phone.

Tom Burton talks about the future of journalism
The Business of Video: Will free media kill journalism? I think the larger point here is that the web won't be able to do what mass media can do well and that is aggregate the large audiences that are needed to fund expensive content. Every medium finds its niche.

Return of the digital native
Sated by the success of the Future of Journalism summit this poster has been strangely quiet for the past couple of weeks while reflecting on "what it all meant". For one thing, as Chris Warren said in his closing address, we may not have answered all the questions, but we got the questions out there. It was worth the price of admission to hear Campbell Reid say he dreams of the day when he is released from the millstone of having to physically print newspapers.

In my opinion, let's stick to the facts
There is a widespread belief that the journalistic future is commentary, analysis and opinion. News will take care of itself. The raw data will somehow appear, whether in print or on screen, and the "added value" will be the spin.
