Interesting stuff I saw online from Dec. 5 to Dec. 8
Here’s some of the stuff I thought was interesting while stomping through the Internet from Dec. 5 through Dec. 8:
- Xark!: Twitter: Menace or Threat? – Awesome quote. I plan to steal it and use it regularly! "The strengths and weaknesses of Twitter and other social media tools are far more apparent to the people who use them than the people who don't, so you're not breaking any news to me when you tell me about their 'flaws.'"
- Readership Institute: Get Smart About Your Readers –
- Friday procrastination: the blog gender analyser | Journalism.co.uk Editors' Blog – It correctly determined that my blog is written by a man. It was, sadly, only 76 percent sure.
- Justice for exploited journalism students – Interesting item. As newsrooms are downsizing, will we lean harder on interns and students? "We came to the conclusion that the problem is becoming very serious — and it’ll only get worse….So I’m now in the process of putting together a site that will allow student journalists to submit their stories about work experience. I will collate the information on a page, just like on AngryJournalist."
