NJ in NYC: the future of news?

Imagine a room full of 150 people bursting with bright ideas about how to transform online journalism – and they are not just talking but doing it, too. That was the Networked Journalism Summit at City University New York today. I was hugely impressed by the diversity of the enterprises on show and the determination of the journalists to make them work and to make them pay. This was no academic talking shop. Instead media blogger and lecturer Jeff Jarvis led a concentrated effort to share best practice, brainstorm new ideas and to create fresh partnerships.
