In front of an audience of about 50 local social media junkies taking part in one of the station’s regular “bloginars,” new media director John Daenzer pulled back the kimono a project called The Wire. It’s an interactive timeline for news and events that allows users — journalists and citizen journalists alike — to follow and influence a story’s development in real time. It is, in fact, a way for news consumers to become news reporters; to see and participate in how the journalism sausage is made.

“We want to break down the wall that says we are the brokers of information,” Daenzer says. “I think it’s time that we as the media admit that we don’t have all the answers.”

Twitter Prefers Right-Wingers

While I totally support you in your disgust with Baio’s rhetoric, you’re going over the line when you post addresses for the purpose of harassment. When you bring it to that level, you’re just losing credibility for your side of the debate.

The Macintosh uses an experimental pointing device called a ‘mouse’. There is no evidence that people want to use these things. I dont want one of these new fangled devices.

These kids need your help!
You can make a direct impact on a child’s education, and you get to track exactly who you helped and have them communicate directly back to you. That’s DonorsChoose.
It’s incredibly cool to be able to see what an instant and direct influence you can have. Skip that coffee you were going to have and use the money to buy these kids the tools to change their future.
