A signpost along the way
Beginning in 2005, I was getting a lot of speaking invitations to newspapers, conferences and journalism classes to talk about digital journalism. By far the two most frequently asked questions were:
* How do you find the time?
* Do you pay extra for blogging/video/filing online updates?
Speaking to students Thursday, I realized that the questions are different. I can't remember the last time I was asked either of those questions. I'm interpreting that as meaning that journalists finally understand that their jobs have changed.
