It's reading week so hoipefully your all not reading, and enjoying Family Guy season 8. Unfortunately I am, its even e-publishing related (helpfully).
I'm the wrong side of lots of research and 10,000 words of new media's effects on citizen journalism. But if your interested in the impplications of blogs, tweets and what ever next months craze will be on citizen journalism will be then this book will help you no end. Written by Dan Gilmour,whom I'm lead to believe is some kind of blogging god, the book is titled We The Media. It explores the effects of new media on journalism, and on current journalistic out-put. Good stuff.
The second piece of dissertation proposal filler that has turned up is a two part documentary on citizien journalism by the BBC. It explores the strenghs and weaknesses of new media and its benefits to citizen journalism. It also has some interesting case-studies, such as plight of Egyption bloggers.
That was a fun distraction, only 120 pages left... Laters.
