I’ve been following the tweets coming out of @FishbowlNY as they faithfully cover MPA Magazines 24/7 Conference Fifth Digital Conference ‘Navigating a New Reality.’.

I’m posting some screen shots of their tweets, because, well, I can’t retweet them all!

This sounds familiar. Sorta like what The Media Consortium is doing for its members?

I think there are some great journalism, collaborative, data-driven projects that progressive media should explore. I even posted an example as I’m following media coverage about the economy.

And last, but not least…

It’s all about collaboration folks! How do we raise money, impact, influence by working together? (Are there ways to make lemonade out of lemons?) There is going to be a lot of coordination forced out of this economic crisis, but i actually think this was the natural progression that we were heading towards anyways. There are so many media projects out there now: organizations and advocacy groups, individuals, institutions, that there’s got to be ways to a) break the white-noise barrier b) organize content and coordination across outlets for maximum impact c) find creative solutions to reach new revenue sources or find backend opportunities to save money.
