Of course inspired by the now famous “Stuff White People Like” blog.

Interview – Michael Rosenblum
For last year’s Networked Journalism Summit I did 60+ interviews with leading thinkers and practitioners in the participatory journalism space. This year for the New Business Models for News Summit I did ZERO preparatory interviews. What I will be doing in the aftermath is talking with people who attended to find out what they got out of the day, what they are doing next and what they think we, as a larger community, should be doing.
That begins today. Here’s a quick interview with Michael Rosenblum
All interviews will be posted at NewsInnovation.com – some may be republished here.
Daily Dose of Meta
Here’s a photo of J.D. Lasica interviewing Premal Shah, president of Kiva.org.
I’m absolutetly enthralled by Kiva.org and Premal is actually a big supporter of Spot.Us. I met him a few months ago and after this interview was going to re-introduce myself – but to my surprise he remembered me and Spot.Us and professed that he is cheering us on. I was beside myself.
Somewhere Peter Dietz from Social Actions was taking a picture of me, taking a picture of J.D. interviewing Premal.
New Business Models for News – Summit
Today is the second Networked Journalism Summit which I’ve helped to organize with Jeff Jarvis. This year’s focus is on new business models for news. Part of the day will be live-streamed. Check below.
Gary Vaynerchuck Lays It Down
When I spoke about passion last week I brought up Gary Vaynerchuk (who is now synonymous with the word in my mind).
In a post this week Gary talks directly to us in the journalism/content industry.
I know he can be tough to handle at first because it feels like he is going to explode off the screen. But scroll forward to 1:33 seconds when he starts with magazines. Then watch as he explains why newspapers are dying (and will be dead in five years).
