Just got around to watching this. It’s a good discussion of trying to build an online video experience that is best for both the user and the advertiser. For a little more information on the study check out the full article.
Just came across this older post from Kyle Neath:
Maybe it’s me, but the answer seems so clear in my head. We have thousands of unemployed journalists. Good journalists. We have VCs ready to hand out money for a shit sandwich. We have a proven business model. Why don’t I see a flurry of journalistic startups? Get rid of the cruft of the newsroom, give power to the reporters and content producers.
Stop trying trying to grasp onto idiotic ideas like “social news” or stabbing blindly at twitter in hopes of saving an archaic organizational structure. People aren’t buying printed newspapers? Stop printing them. People only want to read their news online? Let them read it online.
America needs to stop concentrating on how to save our dying industries and start concentrating on how to create the next booming industries. Isn’t that what the American dream is all about, anyways?
Sounds like a plan to me.
From Steve Woodward on the Nozzl Media blog:
We’ve gotten more than 60 responses to our survey on a next-generation “newspaper,” and I wanted to share the preliminary results, which are revealing. The feature that people crave most is a filter. People want less information, not more. But they want that information to be relevant, not noise.
This is just part of what I was trying to get at earlier with my post on minimalism. Good to see it’s supported by user feedback.
From the always good Seth Godin:
Isn’t it odd that were willing to spend $300,000 to buy an accredited but ultimately useless academic line on our resume, but we hesitate to do a month of hard work to create a chunk of experience thats priceless?
This is the whole reason why I got involved with CoPress. Even when I wasn’t an actual team member it was fun work that taught me invaluable lessons about the web, college media, and small companies. I wouldn’t trade it for a thing.
From the otherwise stellar Seed Magazine article on organic foods:
So here we have a nicely delimited study of available research with rigorous standards and a fairly worded conclusion, all publicly available to download and read on the FSA website.
Well if it’s so publicly available and downloadable then why can’t you take the time to link to it? The author (web editor?) took the time to go through and link to such blogs as Food Politics, Matthew Yglesias, and more but linking to the study that the article centers around? No, that’d be too much to ask.
