While in London, I bumped into Dan Gillmor, the blogger, journalist and of the author of the book, We the Media, which, chronicling how the Internet is helping independent journalists combat the consolidation of traditional media.
The good news is that he is putting together a nonprofit Center for Citizen Media. The center will live virtually at citmedia.org. The goals are to study, encourage and help enable the emergent grassroots media sphere, with a major focus on citizen journalism. A project co-sponsored by University of California and Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University Law School.
I'm looking forward to meet the guy again next month in Qatar, where we both are participating in some international media conference, which I'll talk about then.
All the best, Dan!
