Online quite seriously, and establishing background resources for our
reporters to integrate with each other in order to help drive marketing.
Online resources like this one https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AmUiW0bgxp4mdHBpQ0c2cXF5S3pkRHJZSkRMWlVhVEE&hl=en
can be used to help aggregate student blogs to the KUJSoc website,
not only journalism students, but also half field journalism/politics
students like first-year Mashaal Myler.
Of course as an MA student I won't be at Kingston for long (just till
next June) so I'm encouraging Mashaal and her associates to get
involved with KUJSoc now, and bring students to the elections in may
2010.
I have high hopes for this personal blog however. In the past I've
tried starting this blog and never gotten anywhere with it - yet,
however, this being a newswriting course I'm expecting to be churning
out articles and throwing them up here first, in order that they be
syndicated elsewhere as they're produced, and I've just set up a nice
little email method, whereby I can blog by sending an email out to my
(secret) address.
Seems to work fine, plus i can throw up pictures with ease, so I can
even blog from my mobile phone, which is pretty cool I guess.
All this technology does get in the way however. None of it is worth
anything if you can't actually produce content, and that's what I'm
about right now. That's why I came on this course, specifically so
that I could produce decent content and learn the ins and outs of the
news/entertainment industry.
As usual, there are endless things to 'talk/write' about, but only the
most interesting things ought be published here I feel. Well.. I'm
going to give it my best shot. .
See you on the trail amigos...
