Got News?
It's been emerging for a little while now, and it's not going back to the way it was. News, newspapers, news shows, how you find out about events in the world around you is changing.
The folks who wrote We the Media described it well, and the story continues on their blog. And if you've checked out Oh My News!, you know it's happening. News submitted by average Joes and {gasp!} non-journalists about things they see and do.
I read on JoHO today that news blogging legend Dan Gillmor is leaving the San Jose Mercury news to work on a citizen-journalism project.
hope to pull together something useful that helps enable -- and demonstrates -- the emerging grassroots journalism that I wrote about in my recent book. Something powerful is happening, it's in the early stages and I have a chance to help figure this out.
I can't wait to see what comes of it. And I love that even Dan got scooped on posting about it by his colleagues. The dynamic nature of participatory journalism keeps us all on our toes.
I expect Dan Gillmor's new project will help accelerate the revolution -- and some of us don't think it can happen fast enough. It's going to be a wild and wonderful ride!
