More fuel on the fire: Writing for the Nation, Eric Alterman asks if it's "time to abolish the editorial page."

Comments

In my "spare" time I occasionally speak and/or teach workshops related to Internet news publishing and participative/citizen media.

Upcoming:

Ifra India CEO-Publishers Conclave, Sept. 16-17, Goa, India.

Southern Newspaper Publishers Association annual convention, Oct. 19-21, Turnberry Isle, Florida.

Forum Lokaljournalismus 2009, January 21-23, Schwerin, Germany.

I spoke on social networking earlier this year at
PNA’s e-Edge Conference (America East) and at Ifra's PublishAsia conference in Macau SAR, China, and I appeared on panels at Leadership 08: Transforming News, Knight Digital Media Center, Los Angeles, and a conference on The Future of Journalism at Harvard's Joan Shorenstein Center.

In 2007 my appearances included Paris, France; Istanbul, Turkey; Barcelona, Spain; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and Rust, Germany.

If you're a conference organizer, you can contact me by email.
