Convergence and Society 2010
Well, I've been lacking in keeping up blogs from conferences recently. Right now I'm at the Convgence and Society Conference at the University of South Carolina. This is the ninth one, and I've been to all. Already some good new information from presenters about use of digital media. Current speaker, Feili Tu, has info about using Second Life to create a virtual library.
And ... When I've done this in recent years I've used a laptop...this is my first blog from an iPad.
The keynote speaker Monday night was Elizabeth Cohen of CNN, talking about medical reporting and new work activities as part of the digital media world.
Tuesday...Bill Densmore .. About Reynolds Journalism Institute ...Newshare.com/converge has his PowerPoint
Paying for content issues ... We need a trust authority for information on the web ... Is this an idea like a university having a contract with publishers and 'members' log in and are recognized, and use for 'free'
The idea is to have some kind of Information Valet ... A shared user network
See similar examples, like Visa credit card story
Then...
Augie Grant ... Problem of Google getting 10% of all advertising revenue ... They don't pay for content, and don't share revenue with content creators. Threre needs to be some kind of model for making money with news content. A Creative Alternative "copyright trolls" ... Finding copyright violations and suing people as a source of revenue. But, there can be realistic ways news organizations can find new ways to sell their content.
