Some great points from Steve Buttry on why journalists need to take over their own professional training rather than wait for their employers to do it for them.
The benefits of teaching yourself go beyond the skill you just learned: You underscore your own responsibility for your [...]
I popped into Cardiff city centre during lunch today, not something I often do, but decided to go to the deli (chorizo and morcilla if anyone cares) and Waterstones to have a look for a book on Ruby.
Talk about two very different experiences – which in a round-about way made me think about [...]
The other week I attended the Eduserve symposium as a virtual delegate, an interesting day which steamed the presenters and gave those of us at a distance the chance to join in via Cover It Live.
There were Tweets flying back and forth, people discussing and joining in via the back channel as [...]
I’ve mentioned this before briefly, but what continues to amaze me is how much my two spheres of interest are essentially colliding. Not only are the same issues being talked about in both journalism and elearning on a regular basis – how should we change the conversation, ‘push or pull’ and on-demand content – but [...]
Had a fun Flashmeeting with my tutor and some of my course mates last night.

We got sidetracked and started talking about social networks and then someone piped up with “But it is my FaceBook and I don’t want [...]
Paul Bradshaw (see previous post) has been in touch. I’ve misconstrued what he’s said. Have a look at his comment on the original article.
We’re in agreement about the role of the letters page after all.
Doesn’t change anything for me (apart from wanting [...]
Online communities are the order of the day for my master’s this semester. So we’re blogging, using an ELGG community and a wiki as part of the fun and games.
I’ve always had a problem with blogging – as a journalist I was always taught that my view isn’t important, it’s all about what the [...]
