Some days ago I sent a message to this list to ask for help in preparing a course on the opportunities of new media for journalism students. I wanted to create a glossary with relevant terms. I wish to thank Julian, Kath, Ismael & Alex for their suggestions. This is the glossary so far. If you have any new suggestions do not hesitate in replying. I will send updates as the glossary grows… Citizen media editor Citizen journalism Weblog Rss Mash-up Podcast Youtube Social bookmarking Web2.0 Social media Online community Folksonomy Social networking Tagging User generated content Wiki Gatekeeper vs Gatewatcher CAR Twitter Vlogging Digg Second Life Mobile internet ubiquitous computing privacy participative democracy reputation intellectual property rights/ creative commons smart mob flickr photoshop geotagging __________________________________________ niels.hendriks(a)mda.khlim.be docent & projectmedewerker Communication & multimediadesign http://c-md.khlim.be (mob) 0032 476 24 29 45 (skype) nielshendriks Favourites: http://del.icio.us/nielshendriks LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/nielshendriks __________________________________________ No virus found in this outgoing message.

The editors are now seeking papers for a special issue on Cultural Aspects of Interaction Design. The special issue editors are Prof. Keiichi Sato of the Institute of Design at Illinois Institute of Technology and Prof. Kuohsiang Chen of the Department and Institute of Industrial Design at National Cheng Kung University, Taiwan.

writers striking for internet payment?
by Marcela Musgrove 31 Dec '07

31 Dec '07

I hadn't really been paying attention to the writer's strike going on but just found out today that it's over writers wanting to be paid residuals when their TV shows are shown on the internet. So now I'm surprised that there hasn't been more online discussion/activism/petitions though I was able to see some videos on YouTube that explained what was going on. Has anyone been following this closely? Would this be relevant to EFF or any of the other advocacy groups? Happy new year! Marcela

Glossary: new media + journalism

Hi there I am working on a course for journalism students. I was asked to give them insight on how new media can help the way they gather, create, select & publish news. I wanted to create a glossary with relevant terms on new media & journalism. I don’t know whether I am still missing things… Maybe you could give me a hand?

How fortunate to have known the man himself! You probably already know, Barry, that Oscar was also a favorite of Miles Davis and if memrory serves one of his sources of inspiration. I've admired Oscar's playing since undergrad days in the sixties :-| and probably understandably now more. Really great music!

Final reminder: Broadcast News and the Active Citizen conference, University of Leeds, 7 January
by Stephen Coleman 28 Dec '07

28 Dec '07

BROADCAST NEWS AND THE ACTIVE CITIZEN A Dialogue between Media Researchers and Practitioners about the changing relationship between Broadcast News and Citizenship Monday, January 7, 2008, University of Leeds KEYNOTE SPEAKERS PETER HORROCKS, Head of (the recently converged) BBC Newsroom JOHN DOWNING, Southern Illinois University (author of Radical Media) Presenters include: Brian McNair, University of Strathclyde Chris Atton, Napier University Nick Couldry, Goldsmiths College - University of London Vicky Taylor, BBC Interactive Simon Bucks, Sky News Mark Waddington, ITV Local USER GENERATED CONTENT - CITIZEN JOURNALISM - INTERACTIVITY - PRODUSAGE - COMMUNITY MEDIA - LOCALISM Broadcast news institutions are responding in unprecedented ways to a public which increasingly produces and consumes its own journalism. The conference will explore the changing relationship between Broadcast News and Citizenship. These trends challenge traditional notions of citizenship and the role of broadcasters. While enabling exploration of a broad range of topics related to these phenomena, we seek to develop insights, in particular, into how the major news broadcasters of the UK - at the local and national levels - adapt to an increasingly active, engaged, and demanding public. The cost of the conference (including lunch and wine reception) is ?25. The reduced fee for students/unwaged is ?10.
