Goodbye To the Networked Journalism Summit

I slept in today.
But now I have to get to work. I’ve got research to do for Jeff Howe related to the upcoming crowdsourcing book, among several other things that have been on the backburner. Once I come up for air I’ll have a post with more substantial ideas.

The Networked Journalism Summit was fantastic though. I’m honored that I was able to help organize it and hope that everyone in attendance was engaged throughout the day. Now that it’s all done, I hope that the networking that took place leads to real production. Only time will tell. As for me — if you were part of this event — please keep in touch with me. I will remain curious about where everyone will go from here. And I hope to work with many of you, if only informally, in the future. (and a big p.s./personal plugg: If anybody is interested in publishing my recently finished masters thesis, let me know)

I’d like to mimic Ryan Sholin’s post below. In truth, there are close to a hundred people who I could give personal comments/thanks/wishes and advice to. But I’ll keep it to a few here — and then I’m going to get back to work.

Adrian Monck: If you want to talk more Digg/social news stuff – let me know. Also, please follow up when the book comes out.

Kenyatta Cheese: We didn’t get a chance to talk until the end. But I hope we keep in touch. If you need anything in SF. Let me now.

Rory O’Connor: Good luck with NewsTrust. I’ll continue to watch it with anticipation to see if you are able to take it to the next level.

Scott Karp: If you forget to invite me to the beta — I will hunt you down and shake it out of you.

Robin Sloan: Thank you for the beta follow up — I’ll see you in SF soon. Party on.

Bill Denismore: Journalism That Matters in California? I’d be interested in that.

Josh Levy/Micah Sifry: Excited to see what Tech President has in store for us all next week.

Leonard Witt: Thanks for dinner. Representative Journalism is about to splash on the scene.

Rachel Sterne: The pleasure is always mine.

Amanda Michel: As always — you rock. I can spend 10 minutes with you and learn so much.

Jay Rosen: I hope we are able to get interest in the beat blogging project — so I can refer to you as Boss Rosen again.

Jeff Jarvis: Thank you for the opportunity!!!!!

I could extend little notes to all. But I really got to get back to work again. Soon I’ll come up for air and write something that has actual thoughts to it. But again — if you are looking for something to read. Check out the 60 or so interviews I collected before the Networked Journalism Conference.
