[This review was originally posted at the Nieman Journalism Lab on Jan. 7, 2011.] A net neutrality compromise: The Review might have taken two weeks off for the holidays, but the rest of the future-of-news world kept on humming. Consider this more your "Holidays in Review" than your "Week in Review." Let's get to it. The biggest news development of the past few weeks came just before Christmas, when the FCC passed a set of Internet regulations that were widely characterized as a compromise between net neutrality advocates and big Internet service providers. In essence, the rules will keep ISPs from blocking or slowing services on the traditional wired Internet, but leave the future of wireless regulation more unclear. (Here's a copy of the order and a helpful explainer from GigaOM.) In the political realm, the order drew predictable responses from both sides of the aisle: Conservatives (including at least one Republican FCC commissioner) were skeptical of a move toward net neutrality, while liberals (like Democratic Sen. Al Franken) fervently argued for it. In the media-tech world, it was greeted — as compromises usually are — with near-universal disdain. The Economist ran down the list of concerns for net neutrality proponents, led by the worry that the FCC "has handed the wireless carriers a free pass." This was especially troubling to j-prof Dan Kennedy, who argued that wireless networks will be far more important to the Internet's future than wired ones. Salon's Dan Gillmor said the FCC paid lip service to net neutrality, paving the way for a future more like cable TV than the open web we have now. Newsweek's Dan Lyons compressed his problems with the order into one statement: "There will soon be a fast Internet for the rich and a slow Internet for the poor." From the other side, Slate media critic Jack Shafer, a libertarian, questioned whether the FCC had the power to regulate the Internet at all, and imagined what the early Internet would have been like if the FCC had regulated it then. The Los Angeles Times' James Rainey told both sides to calm down, and at the Knight Digital Media Center, Amy Gahran used the story as an object lesson for news organizations in getting and linking to the source documents in question. — WikiLeaks and the media's awkward dance: The long tail of this fall's WikiLeaks story continues to run on, meandering into several different areas over the holidays. There are, of course, ongoing efforts to silence WikiLeaks, both corporate (Apple pulled the WikiLeaks app from its store) and governmental (a bill to punish circulation of similar classified information was introduced, and criticized by law prof Geoffrey Stone). In addition, Vanity Fair published a long piece examining the relationship between WikiLeaks' Julian Assange and The Guardian, the first newspaper to partner with him. Based on the story, Slate's Jack Shafer marveled at Assange's shrewdness and gamesmanship ("unequaled in the history of journalism"), Reuters' Felix Salmon questioned Assange's mental health, and The Atlantic's Nicholas Jackson wondered why The Guardian still seems to be playing by Assange's rules. We also saw the blowup of Salon columnist Glenn Greenwald's feud with Wired over some chat logs between alleged WikiLeaks leaker Bradley Manning and the man who turned him in. It's a complicated fight I'm not going to delve into here, but if you'd like to know more, here are two good blow-by-blows, one more partial to Wired, and another more sympathetic to Greenwald. Greenwald has also continued to be one of the people leading the inquiries into the traditional media's lack of support for WikiLeaks. Alternet rebutted several media misconceptions about WikiLeaks, and Newsweek attempted to explain why the American press is so lukewarm on WikiLeaks — they aren't into advocacy, and they don't like Assange's purpose or methods. One of the central questions to that media cold-shoulder might be whether Assange is considered a journalist, something GigaOM's Mathew Ingram tried to tackle. Other, more open critiques of WikiLeaks continue to trickle out, including ones from author Jaron Lanier and Floyd Abrams, a lawyer who argued for The New York Times in the Pentagon Papers case. Abrams' argument prompted rebuttals from Jack Shafer and NYU prof Clay Shirky. Shirky in particular offered a nuanced comparison of the Pentagon Papers-era Times and the globally oriented WikiLeaks, concluding that "the old rules will not produce the old outcomes." If you're still hungry for WikiLeaks analysis, John Bracken's rounded up the best of the year here. — Looking back, and looking forward: We rang in the new year last week, and that, of course, always means two things in the media world: year-end retrospectives, and previews of the year to come. The Lab wrapped up its own year in review/preview before Christmas with a review of Martin Langeveld's predictions for 2010. PBS' MediaShift also put together a good set of year-end reviews, including ones on self-publishing, the rapidly shifting magazine industry, a top-ten list of media stories (led by WikiLeaks, Facebook, and the iPad). You can also get a pretty good snapshot of the media year that was by taking a look at AOL's list of the top tech writing of 2010. Poynter's Rick Edmonds examined the year in newspaper stock prices (not great, but could've been worse), while media consultant Alan Mutter explained that investors tended to stay away from debt-laden newspaper companies in particular. As for the year to come, the Lab's readers weighed in — you like ProPublica, The Huffington Post, and Clay Shirky, and you're split on paywalls — and several others chimed in with their predictions, too. Among the more interesting prognostications: New York Times media critic David Carr sees tablets accelerating our ongoing media convergence, The Next Web forecasts a lot of blogs making the Gawker-esque beyond the blog format, Mashable's Vadim Lavrusik predicts the death of the foreign correspondent, TBD's Steve Buttry sees many journalism trade organizations merging, and the Lab's Martin Langeveld thinks we'll see John Paton's innovative measures at the Journal Register Co. slowly begin to be emulated elsewhere in the newspaper industry. Two other folks went outside the predictions mold for their 2011 previews: media analyst Ken Doctor looked at 11 pieces of conventional wisdom the media industry will test this year, and the University of Colorado's Steve Outing outlined his wishes for the new year. Specifically, he wants to see News Corp. and The New York Times' paid-content plans fail, and to see news execs try a value-added membership model instead. "This will require that news publishers actually work their butts off to sell, rather than sit back and expect people to fork over money "just because" everyone should support journalism," he wrote. — Rethinking publishing for the tablet: One theme for the new year in media that's already emerged is the impending dominance of the tablet. As The New York Times' Joshua Brustein wrote, that was supposed to be the theme last year, too, but only the iPad was the only device able to get off the ground in any meaningful way. Several of Apple's competitors are gearing up to make their push this year instead; The Times' Nick Bilton predicted that companies that try to one-up Apple with bells and whistles will fail, though Google may come up with a legitimate iPad rival. Google has begun work toward that end, looking for support from publishers to develop a newsstand to compete with Apple's app store. And Amazon's Kindle is doing fine despite the iPad's popularity, TechCrunch argued. Meanwhile, Women's Wear Daily reported that magazine app sales on the iPad are down from earlier in the year, though Mashable's Lauren Indvik argued that the numbers aren't as bad as they seem. The magazine numbers prompted quite a bit of analysis of what's gone wrong with magazine apps. British entrepreneur Andrew Walkingshaw ripped news organizations for a lack of innovation in their tablet editions — "tablets are always-on, tactile, completely reconfigurable, great-looking, permanently jacked into the Internet plumbing, and you’re using them to make skeumorphic newspaper clones?" — and French media consultant Frederic Filloux made similar points, urging publishers to come up with new design concepts and develop a coherent pricing structure (something Econsultancy's Patricio Robles had a problem with, too). There were plenty of other suggestions for tablet publications, too: GigaOM's Mathew Ingram said they should focus on filtering the web, MG Siegler of TechCrunch asked for an easy-to-use newsstand rather than a system of standalone apps, and Alan Mutter suggested magazines lower the prices and cut down on the technical glitches. Three others focused specifically on the tablet publishing business model: At the Lab, Ken Doctor gave us three big numbers to watch in determining where this is headed, entrepreneur Bradford Cross proposed a more ad-based model revolving around connections to the open web, and venture capitalist Fred Wilson predicted that the mobile economy will soon begin looking more like the web economy. — Reading roundup: A few items worth taking a look at over the weekend: — The flare-up du jour in the tech world is over RSS, and specifically, whether or not it is indeed still alive. Web designer Kroc Camen suggested it might be dying, TechCrunch's MG Siegler fingered Twitter and Facebook as the cause, Dave Winer (who helped develop RSS) took umbrage, and GigaOM's Mathew Ingram and The Guardian's Martin Belam defended RSS' relevance. — Add the Dallas Morning News to the list of paywalled (or soon-to-be-paywalled) papers to watch: It announced it will launch a paid-content plan Feb. 15. The Lab's Justin Ellis shed light on Morning News' thinking behind the plan. PaidContent's Staci Kramer alsobroke down a Pew report on paying for online content. — For the many writers are considering how to balance social media and longer-form writing, two thoughtful pieces to take a look at: Wired's Clive Thompson on the way tweets and texts can work in concert in-depth analysis, and Anil Dash on the importance of blogging good ideas. — Finally, NPR's Matt Thompson put together 10 fantastic lessons for the future of media, all coming from women who putting them into action. It's an encouraging, inspiring set of insights.

Buy Kamagra Without Prescription, [This review was originally posted at the Nieman Journalism Lab on Aug. 13, rx free Kamagra, Kamagra in india, 2010.]

TBD takes off: One of the most anticipated new news organizations in journalism's recent history launched this week in the form of TBD, a site owned by Allbritton Communications (the folks behind Politico) covering local news in Washington, Kamagra from international pharmacy, Kamagra medication, D.C. As The Huffington Post's Jack Mirkinson wrote, buy Kamagra online no prescription, Buy Kamagra from canada, TBD is "something of a canary in the coal mine" of the future of journalism, being the protoype of a locally focused, order Kamagra online overnight delivery no prescription, Cod online Kamagra, community-driven, online-only news model whose effectiveness everyone's eager to gauge, Kamagra in us. Kamagra san diego, For the basics of the project, here are two local profiles from DCist and the more skeptical Washington Post, buy Kamagra online without a prescription, Buy Kamagra online with no prescription, a paidContent interview with Robert Allbritton, and a Poynter chat with TBD's Jim Brady and Steve Buttry, buy Kamagra without prescription. Kamagra pills, After TBD gave its media preview last Friday, quite a few people listed plenty of reasons to keep an eye on the site: Ken Doctor liked the "out of the box" nature of TBD's pro-am/social/mobile/multimedia efforts; Jeff Jarvis liked the collaborative, Kamagra paypal, Next day Kamagra, link-centric philosophy; the Lab's Laura McGann called attention to TBD's interactivity and collaboration through local blogs and social media; and Kevin Anderson was impressed by the project's commitment to profitability. Several TBD analyses focused particularly on TBD's interactive and collaborative news efforts, with Journalism Lives, Mashable and Poynter providing good area-by-area breakdowns, Buy Kamagra Without Prescription. Mark Potts, buying Kamagra online over the counter, Buy Kamagra without a prescription, who's starting up a similar blog-network effort, Growthspur, Kamagra to buy online, Kamagra buy, wrote a thoughtful piece about the importance of TBD's own network of local blogs: "TBD is without doubt the biggest, most ambitious effort yet to create a new paradigm for local news coverage of a major metropolitan area, where to buy Kamagra, Kamagra tablets, " he wrote.

Poynter's Steve Myers also touched on an distinct aspect of TBD's operation — it also includes an Allbritton-owned all-news local cable channel that will be branded TBD TV, buy Kamagra online without prescription. Kamagra from canadian pharmacy, He examined how a web-TV converged newsroom operates, and Cory Bergman of Lost Remote (a local TV and hyperlocal news veteran himself) wondered if we might see more TV-local online news partnerships, buy generic Kamagra. Over the counter Kamagra, Here at the Lab, Ken Doctor took a detailed look at the economics of TBD's web-TV synergy, Kamagra price, coupon, Kamagra gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, centering on its pioneering broadcast and online advertising hybrid. Buy Kamagra Without Prescription, Meanwhile, David Rothman had some detailed advice for TBD's competitors.

The site officially launched Monday, Kamagra in canada, Purchase Kamagra online, and the initial reviews were mostly positive. Rothman and Suzanne Yada had the most detailed ones; both were impressed by the site's presentation and several of its features, though both were concerned about how much local news content the site would actually be able to produce, buy Kamagra online cod. Where can i buy Kamagra online, PaidContent's Staci Kramer liked the smooth design, too, ordering Kamagra online, Kamagra over the counter, but wanted to see more out of the site's locally personalized features. The New York Times' David Carr ("extremely functional .., Kamagra craiglist. Kamagra in uk, kind of ugly") and Mediaite's Michael Triplett ("off to a good start," despite "thin and D.C.-centric" content) also offered quicker reviews, buy cheap Kamagra. The most thoughtful review belongs to Lost Remote's Bergman, who noted that while many of the ideas are old, their implementation is new."This is the first time that a local media group — especially in the TV space — has wrapped these ideas together and aggressively launched them with an investment to back it up," he wrote, Buy Kamagra Without Prescription. Kamagra for sale, —

Demand Media's profit-less past: Demand Media, the new-media lightning rod du jour, purchase Kamagra online no prescription, Online buy Kamagra without a prescription, filed for an IPO last Friday, giving us the first detailed financial look inside the private company. Several sites took cracks at sifting through the numbers for significant bits, purchase Kamagra, Kamagra in mexico, but two pieces stood out: One, Demand Media has yet to make a profit, real brand Kamagra online, Kamagra to buy, losing $22 million this year; and two, 26 percent of its revenue comes from cost-per-click advertising deals with Yahoo, buy cheap Kamagra no rx. Sale Kamagra, That's a pretty sizable chunk of Demand Media's income, and GigaOM's Mathew Ingram examined one of the company's reported risk factors — that Google could use its own search expertise to create a search-driven content company to compete with Demand, Kamagra in usa. Where can i order Kamagra without prescription, Ingram pointed out that Google already has a patent for a process that identifies "underserved" search content. All Things Digital noted that Demand's heavy reliance on Google "could torpedo the company" if Google changes its search formula or changes its contract with Demand, buy Kamagra from mexico, Order Kamagra online c.o.d, but it also countered that every web publisher is dependent on Google. Buy Kamagra Without Prescription, Then there's the whole matter of profitability. The Wall Street Journal's Scott Austin contrasted the numbers in Demand's filing with its executives' numerous past descriptions of the company as profitable, buy no prescription Kamagra online, Fast shipping Kamagra, as a reminder that "no one outside the company can verify a start-up’s financial claims." Slate's James Ledbetter also noticed an inexplicably large and sudden drop in Quantcast traffic to Demand's sites a few weeks ago and wondered what was behind it. Meanwhile, Kamagra in japan, Saturday delivery Kamagra, the Journal also profiled Demand Media's efforts to court big-time advertisers on the web.

A proposal to carve up the open web: A week after reports emerged that Google and Verizon were near a deal that would more or less mark the end of net neutrality, order Kamagra from mexican pharmacy, Free Kamagra samples, the two companies came forward this week not with a deal, but with a policy proposal, Kamagra tablets. Buy Kamagra online without prescription, As for whether that would mark the end of net neutrality, well, purchase Kamagra, Kamagra in us, it depends on who you ask. Google and Verizon called their plan a "proposal for an open Internet," and their CEOs co-authored a Washington Post op-ed arguing that their proposal "empowers an informed consumer, ensures the robust growth of the open Internet and provides incentives to strengthen the networks that carry Internet traffic." The proposal has quite a few moving parts, but it essentially prohibits Internet service providers from discriminating against or prioritizing "lawful Internet content," while excepting wireless networks and some unspecified future services from that regulation, Buy Kamagra Without Prescription.

The tech blog Engadget broke down the proposal, Kamagra in uk, Buy Kamagra without prescription, noting that would set something close to the status quo into formal policy, rendering the U.S, buy Kamagra online without a prescription. Purchase Kamagra online no prescription, Federal Communications Commission powerless to change policy as the Internet changes. Most of the web was quite a bit harsher in its judgment, online buy Kamagra without a prescription, calling it an open attack on net neutrality by excluding its fastest part, wireless. CNET and The New York Times put together good summaries of the backlash, but here are some of the most to-the-point examples: Free Press' Craig Aaron ("one massive loophole that sets the stage for the corporate takeover of the Internet"), the Electronic Freedom Foundation (it limits net neutrality to "lawful" content, leaving "lawful" to be defined) Siva Vaidhyanathan (it gives Verizon control of the most exciting parts of the web) Public Knowledge's John Bergmayer (it divides the Internet into several public and non-public parts) Ars Technica (its rules "will become meaningless as 4G sweeps the country") Salon's Dan Gillmor ("a Trojan Horse for a modern age") Susan Crawford (future services is "a giant, enormous, science-fiction-quality loophole") and Harvard professor Jonathan Zittrain (makes way for "an impenetrable web of contracts and fees").

Noted Google watcher Jeff Jarvis had the most colorful response, illustrating the proposal's potential danger to the open web by presenting a future scenario with two Internets, the old "Internet" with everything pre-2010 and the new "Schminternet," with everything mobile and post-2010. "Mobile is the internet," he wrote. Buy Kamagra Without Prescription, "Mobile will very soon become a meaningless word when — well, if telcos allow it, that is — we are connected everywhere all the time." Meanwhile, Wired gets credit for the most fun phrase — "carrier-humping, net neutrality surrender monkey" — in its explanation of how Google got to that point.

Reading Roundup: A few final items to send you off for the weekend:

— Mashable's Vadim Lavrusik has a smart overview of the shift toward personalized, socially driven news distribution, with a suggestion for a credibility and trust index to help sort through it all.

— Facebook has launched a media page and is pushing for more collaboration with media companies. PBS MediaShift's Mark Glaser has an informative Q&A with Justin Osofsky, head of Facebook's media partnership team.

— Google engineering intern Lyn Headley has written the first of a series of posts explaining the rationale behind his new Rapid News Awards. It's a short, thoughtful take on aggregation, accountability and transparency.

— Finally, some (possibly) positive news: Spot.Us' David Cohn takes a look at the data and notes that the wave of job cuts at America's newspapers has largely subsided. Cohn wonders if it means newspapers are bouncing back, or if they've just cut down to the bone. I fear it's more of the latter.

[This review was originally posted at the Nieman Journalism Lab Buy Thorazine Without Prescription, on Aug. 6, where can i buy cheapest Thorazine online, Purchase Thorazine online, 2010.]

A newbie owner for Newsweek: This week was a big one for Newsweek: After being on the block since May, it was sold to Sidney Harman, real brand Thorazine online, Thorazine craiglist, a 92-year-old audio equipment mogul who's married to a Democratic congresswoman and owns no other media properties. The price: $1, Thorazine medication, Cod online Thorazine, plus the responsibility for Newsweek's liabilities, estimated at about $70 million, Thorazine in japan. Online buying Thorazine hcl, The magazine's editor, Jon Meacham, where can i buy Thorazine online, Delivered overnight Thorazine, is leaving with the sale, though he told Yahoo's Michael Calderone that he had decided in June to leave when Newsweek was sold, Thorazine gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, Order Thorazine online c.o.d, no matter who the new owners were. Harman's age and background and the low sale price made for quite a few biting jokes about the sale on Twitter, dutifully chronicled for us by Slate's Jack Shafer, Thorazine in india. Thorazine san diego, Harman didn't help himself out much by telling The New York Times he doesn't have a plan for Newsweek. In a pair of sharp articles, The Daily Beast painted a grim picture of what exactly Harman's getting himself into: The magazine's revenue dropped 38 percent from 2007 to 2009, and it's losing money in all of its core areas, Buy Thorazine Without Prescription. The Beast noted that with no other media properties, Thorazine to buy, Order Thorazine online overnight delivery no prescription, Harman doesn't have the synergy potential that the magazine's previous owners, The Washington Post Co., Thorazine overseas, Where to buy Thorazine, said Newsweek would need. So why was he chosen, Thorazine pills. Thorazine from international pharmacy, Apparently, he genuinely cares about the publication, buying Thorazine online over the counter, Rx free Thorazine, and he's planning the least number of layoffs. (That, Thorazine price, coupon, Saturday delivery Thorazine, and the other bidders weren't too attractive, either.) PaidContent reported that his primary goal is to bring the magazine back to stability while he sets up a succession plan, Thorazine in canada.

Everybody has ideas of what Harman should do with his newest plaything: MarketWatch's Jon Friedman wants to see Buy Thorazine Without Prescription, Newsweek drop the opinion-and-analysis approach that it's been aping from The Economist, as do several of the observers Politico talked to. Buy Thorazine from mexico, (DailyFinance's Jeff Bercovici just wants Harman to make it a little less excruciatingly dull to read.) Two other Politico sources — new media guru Jeff Jarvis and former Newsweek Tumblr wizard Mark Coatney — want to see Newsweek shift away from a print focus and figure out how to be vital on the web. Media consultant Ken Doctor proposes pushing forward on tablet editions, over the counter Thorazine, Where can i find Thorazine online, multimedia and interacting with readers online as the future of the magazine. Jarvis also has some pieces of advice for magazines in general, Thorazine prescriptions, Buy Thorazine online cod, urging to them to resist the iPad's siren song and get local, among other things, next day Thorazine. Buy no prescription Thorazine online, Poynter's Rick Edmonds has the most intriguing idea for a new Newsweek — going nonprofit. That would likely require refining its editorial mission to a narrower focus on national and international affairs, with the pop culture analysis getting cut out, Edmonds says, but he believes Harman might actually be considering a nonprofit approach, Buy Thorazine Without Prescription. Ken Doctor suggests that with Harman's statements about the relative unimportance of turning a profit from the magazine, order Thorazine from United States pharmacy, Buy Thorazine without a prescription, he's already blurring the lines between a for-profit and nonprofit organization.

Meanwhile, Thorazine discount, Thorazine for sale, others were busy speculating about who might be the editor to lead Newsweek into its next incarnation, buy cheap Thorazine no rx. Sale Thorazine, Names thrown out included Newsweek International editor Fareed Zakaria, Newsweek.com editor Mark Miller, Thorazine to buy online, Thorazine over the counter, Slate Group editor Jacob Weisberg, and former Time editor and CNN CEO Walter Isaacson, Thorazine from canadian pharmacy, Thorazine in usa, though Isaacson has taken himself out of consideration.

WikiLeaks and the need for context: WikiLeaks continued to see fallout from its unprecedented leak of 92, where to buy Thorazine, Buy Thorazine from canada, 000 documents about the war in Afghanistan two weekends ago, with more cries for it to be shut down and its founder, Thorazine in mexico, Order Thorazine from mexican pharmacy, Julian Assange, arrested, where can i order Thorazine without prescription, Buy Thorazine online no prescription, largely because its leak revealed the names of numerous Afghan informants to the U.S. Assange expressed regret Buy Thorazine Without Prescription, for those disclosures, and WikiLeaks said it's even asking for the Pentagon's help in identifying and redacting names of informants in its next document dump, though the Pentagon said they haven't heard from WikiLeaks yet. Not that the U.S, buy generic Thorazine. Buy Thorazine no prescription, government hasn't been trying to make contact — it demanded the documents be returned(!), and agents detained a WikiLeaks researcher at customs and then tried to talk with him again at a hacking conference this week, order Thorazine no prescription. Thorazine paypal, An Australian TV station gave a fascinating inside look at Assange's life on the run, and Slate's Jack Shafer contrasted Assange's approach to leaking sensitive documents with the more government-friendly tack of traditional media outlets, buy cheap Thorazine. Thorazine prices, WikiLeaks also had some news to report on the business-model side: It will begin collecting online micropayment donations through Flattr.

The ongoing discussion around WikiLeaks this week centered on what to do with the data it released, Buy Thorazine Without Prescription. The Tyndall Report provided a thorough roundup of how TV news organizations responded to the leak, Thorazine in australia, Thorazine trusted pharmacy reviews, and several others pinned the rather ho-hum public reaction to the documents' contents on a lack of context provided by news organizations. Former Salon editor Scott Rosenberg said the leak provides a new opportunity to shed an antiquated scoop-based definition of news and bring the reality of the war home to people, ordering Thorazine online. Fast shipping Thorazine, In a smart post musing on the structure of the modern news story, the Lab's Megan Garber proposed an outlet dedicated solely to follow-up journalism, Thorazine buy, Buy Thorazine online with no prescription, arguing that one of the biggest challenges in modern journalism is giving a sense of continuity to long-running stories. "What results is a flattening: the stories of our day, buy Thorazine without prescription, Thorazine from canadian pharmacy, big and small, silly and significant, Thorazine in australia, Thorazine for sale, are leveled to the same plane, occupying the same space, Thorazine in uk, essentially, in the wobbly little IKEA bookshelf that is the modular news bundle," she wrote in a follow-up post.

Mashable also examined Buy Thorazine Without Prescription, (in nifty infographic form!) how WikiLeaks changes the whistleblower-journalist relationship, while NPR wondered whether WikiLeaks is on the source or journalist side of equation. And PBS' Idea Lab had something handy for news orgs: A guide to helping them think about how to handle large-scale document releases.

Tumblr trends upward: The social blogging service Tumblr got the New York Times profile treatment this week, as the paper focused on its growing popularity among news organizations who are trying to jump on it as the next big social media trend — a form of communication somewhere between Twitter and blogging. The article noted that several prominent media brands have Tumblr accounts, though many of them aren't doing much with theirs. Over at Mediaite, Anthony De Rosa, who runs the Tumblr account for the sports blog network SB Nation, said we can expect to see still more media outlets jump on the Tumblr bandwagon, especially because it rewards smart media companies who have a distinctive voice.

New York's Nitasha Tiku tried to douse the hype, arguing that Mark Coatney's often-mentioned Tumblr success for Newsweek "wasn't thanks to the distribution channel on Tumblr, it was his irreverent, conversational style — and that will be difficult for the fresh-faced interns that old-media publications don't pay to run their Tumblrs." And Gawker gave us a graded rundown of traditional news orgs' Tumblr accounts, Buy Thorazine Without Prescription.

Two Internet freedom scares: From The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times this week came two stories that have had many people concerned about issues of freedom and the web. First, the Journal ran a series on the alarming amount of your online data and behavior that companies track on behalf of advertisers. Cluetrain Manifesto co-author Doc Searls argued that while the long-held ideal of intensely personal advertising is getting closer to reality, "the advertising business is going to crash up against a harsh fact: 'consumers' are real people, and most real people are creeped out by this stuff." Jeff Jarvis was much less moved by the Journal's reporting, mocking it as scaremongering that tells us nothing new. Salon's Dan Gillmor fell closer to Searls' outrage than to Jarvis' nonchalance, and media consultant Judy Sims said this series is a window into a complex future for display advertising, one that media executives need to become familiar with in a hurry. Buy Thorazine Without Prescription, Second, the Times unleashed an avalanche of commentary in the tech world with a report that Google and Verizon are moving toward an agreement that would allow companies to pay to get their content to web users more quickly, which would effectively end the passionately held open-Internet principle known as net neutrality. The FCC quickly suspended its closed-door net neutrality meetings, and despite denials from Google and Verizon (which Wired picked apart), a whole lot of whither-the-Internet concernensued. I'm not going to dig too deeply into this story here (I'd rather wait until we have something concrete to opine about), but here are the best quick guides to what this might mean: J-prof Dan Kennedy, Salon's Dan Gillmor and ProPublica's Marian Wang.

Reading roundup: Just a couple of quick items this week:

— Thanks to Poynter, we got glimpses of a couple of softer paid-content options being tried out by GlobalPost and The Spokesman-Review of Spokane, Washington, that might be sprouting up soon elsewhere, too. The Lab's Megan Garber profiled one of the new companies offering that type of porous paywall, MediaPass, and All Things Digital's Peter Kafka sifted through survey results to try to divine what The New York Times' paywall might look like.

— Google's social media platform Google Wave officially died this week, a little more than a year after it was born. Tech pioneer Dave Winer looked at why it never took off and drew a few lessons, too.

— Finally, the Lab's Jonathan Stray took a look at some very cool things that The Guardian is doing with data journalism using free web-based tools. It's a great case study in a blossoming area of journalism.

[This review was originally posted at the Nieman Journalism Lab Buy Viagra Oral Jelly Without Prescription, on April 9, 2010.]

The iPad unleashed: If you’ve been anywhere near a computer or TV this week, it’s not hard to determine what this week’s top journalism/new media story is: Apple’s iPad hit stores Saturday, with 450,000 sold as of Thursday. I’ll spare you the scores of reviews, Viagra Oral Jelly in mexico, Viagra Oral Jelly craiglist, and we’ll jump straight to the bigger-picture and journalism-related stuff. There’s a ton to get to here, order Viagra Oral Jelly from United States pharmacy, Viagra Oral Jelly tablets, so if you’re interested in the bite-sized version, read Cory Doctorow and Howard Weaver on closed media consumption, buy Viagra Oral Jelly without prescription, Where to buy Viagra Oral Jelly, Kevin Anderson on app pricing, and Alan Mutter and Joshua Benton on news app design, buy cheap Viagra Oral Jelly. Sale Viagra Oral Jelly,

If you’re looking for the former, The New York Times and the current issue of Wired have thoughts on the iPad and tablets’ technological and cultural impact from a total of 19 people, purchase Viagra Oral Jelly online, Where can i buy cheapest Viagra Oral Jelly online, mostly tech types. We also saw the renewal of several of the discussions that were percolating the weeks before the iPad’s arrival: New media expert Jeff Jarvis and open-web activist Cory Doctorow took up similar arguments that the iPad is a retrograde device because it’s based around media consumption rather than creation, buy Viagra Oral Jelly online no prescription, Viagra Oral Jelly medication, strangling development and making a single company our personal technology gatekeepers. In responses to Jarvis and Doctorow respectively, hyperlocal journalist Howard Owens and former McClatchy exec Howard Weaver defended those “consumers,” countering that not everybody consumes media like tech critics do — most people are primarily consumers, and that’s OK.

Meanwhile, two other writers made, judging from their pieces’ headlines, an almost identical point: The iPad is not going to save the news or publishing industries, Buy Viagra Oral Jelly Without Prescription. Leaning heavily on Jeff Jarvis, free Viagra Oral Jelly samples, Viagra Oral Jelly in us, The Huffington Post’s Jose Antonio Vargas made the consumption argument, saying that consumers want to tweak, where to buy Viagra Oral Jelly, Saturday delivery Viagra Oral Jelly, question and pass around their content, not just passively consume it, buy Viagra Oral Jelly without a prescription. Buy Viagra Oral Jelly no prescription, And Harvard Business Review editor Paul Michelman contended that publishers are trying to retrofit their media onto this new one.

News business expert Alan Mutter and Poynter blogger Damon Kiesow offered some tips for publishers who do want to succeed on the iPad: Mutter wrote a thorough and helpful breakdown of designing for print, the web and mobile media, buy Viagra Oral Jelly online without a prescription, Next day Viagra Oral Jelly, concluding, “Publishers who want to take full advantage of the iPad will have to do better by creating content that is media-rich, Viagra Oral Jelly paypal, Buy generic Viagra Oral Jelly, interactive, viral, buy Viagra Oral Jelly online without prescription, Buy Viagra Oral Jelly online cod, transactional and mobile.” Kiesow told news orgs to consider what the iPad will be down the road as they design.

Reading roundup: I’ve got a pretty large collection of items for you this week, starting with a couple of bits of news and finishing with several interesting pieces to read.

Columbia University announced a new dual-degree master’s program in journalism and computer science. Eliot Van Buskirk of Wired has a deeper look at the program’s plans to produce hacker-journalists who can be pioneers in data visualization and analysis and device-driven design, along with a couple of brutally honest quotes from Columbia faculty about the relative paucity of computing skills among even “tech-savvy journalists.” Just about everybody loved the idea of the program, though journalist/developer Chris Amico cautioned that more than just dual-degree journalists need to be hanging out with the computer scientists. ”The problem isn’t just a lack of reporters who can code, but a shortage of people in the newsroom who know what’s possible,” he wrote.

Down the road, this may be seen as a turning point: Demand Media, which has been derided lately as a “content farm” will create and run a new travel section for USA Today. As Advertising Age points out, USA Today isn’t the first newspaper to get content from Demand Media — the Atlanta Journal-Constitution gets a travel article a week — but this is collaboration of an entirely new scale.

Now the think pieces: Here at the Lab, former newspaper exec Martin Langeveldupdated his year-old post asserting that more than 95 percent of readership of newspaper content is in print rather than online, and while the numbers changed a bit, his general finding did not.

In an interview with Poynter, Newser’s Michael Wolff had some provocative words for news orgs, telling them readers want stories online with less context, not more (as several folks asserted a few weeks ago at SXSW) and saying he would’ve told newspapers way back when not to go on the web at all: “[Online readers'] experiences have changed and their needs have changed, and I just don’t think traditional news companies are in a position to really understand that kind of change or to speak to it or to deliver it.”

At The Atlantic, Lane Wallace wrote that journalists’ (especially veterans’) strongest bias is not political, but is instead an predetermined assumption of a story line that prevents them from seeing the entire picture.

And lastly, two great academically oriented musings on media and society: Memphis j-prof Carrie Brown-Smith wonders if social media furthers our cultural knowledge gap, and University of Southern Denmark professor Thomas Pettitt talks to the Lab’s Megan Garber about the Gutenberg Parenthesis and society’s return to orally based communication with digital media. Both are great food for thought.

— Mark Bowden of The Atlantic takes a case study of the discovery and development of Sonia Sotomayor's "wise Latina" and "make policy" videos to use as a launching point into a diatribe against advocacy journalists and the establishment media outlets that unquestioningly swallow their work. He does this by zeroing in on Morgen Richmond of the conservative blog Verum Serum, Zinc in japan, Buy Zinc online with no prescription, who unearthed the videos.

While grudgingly praising Richmond for doing his own work, Zinc in india, Buy Zinc online without prescription, Bowden spends most of his time blasting the blogger for not going out looking for damning clips and for not paying enough attention to the sound bites' contexts.
