Interesting stuff I saw online, Feb. 21 to Feb. 24
Here’s some of the stuff I thought was interesting while stomping through the Internet from Feb. 21 through Feb. 24:
- Debate: The National Union of Journalists (NUJ) and online media – While I really, really wish "traditional" media would evolve faster, it has and always will evolve. There doesn't need to be an "us vs. them" mentality — especially if news is a conversation and we're all part of it. "Both the old and new media have their own wisdom," Salina Christmas, former newspaper journalist turned web editor, tells Journalism.co.uk.
- Another Way To Look At Terms Of Service Agreements: Wordle Visualizations – TechCrunch says: "Pointless? Very. Cool? Definitely…..This is what you get when you use a slick tool like Wordle (try it!) to run all the words used to make up the Terms of Service agreements of seven notable internet companies: cool visualizations that somewhat capture the essence of their content."
- WordPress Plugin List – Below is a list of WorPress Plugins that can come in handy when building your site.
- How Celebrity Imposters Hurt Twitter's Credibility – Interesting post about imposters on Twitter, though I think its headline doesn't do it justice.
