  • Radio Needs To Fight To Remain In Cars

    Eric Rhoads on a prediction from panelists at Radio Ink's Convergence conference that car companies are phasing out radios in the dashboard: Radio stations "had better start working out a strategy to strengthen your brand relationship with your audience now so they'll still seek you out when they have tens of thousands of other choices."

  • The Next Newspaper Revolution

    Gary Stein, senior VP of strategy and planning at marketing agency iCrossing: "The biggest benefit for advertisers is for the newspaper industry to stop thinking of the product they create as being 100 sheets of paper with news on it. Rather, the industry needs to see itself as creating relationships that keep people informed. If it does that, then it is putting that consumer in the center."

  • Journalism’s Problem Is A Failure Of Originality

    Kelly McBride of Globe and Mail: "Our originality breakdown results from many pressures – the overwhelming volume of writing incessantly pushed out into the digital space, the pressure on writers to feed a content beast that’s never satiated, the diminishing economic forces that support professional writing."

  • 2 Moves That Say A Lot About Twitter's Future

    Mathew Ingram: "As it cuts off the third-party developers (and in some cases users) who helped generate much of its success, signs of where Twitter is headed are also abundant: they can be seen in the deals that the company has signed with corporate partners such as NBC."

  • Are Metered Paywalls A Mistake?

    Steve Outing points out the problems with metered paywalls and offers an alternative: "What I’m suggesting is putting editors back in the driver’s seat (to a degree), by selecting the best 10 articles or other news content of the day for non-paying website users."

  • Mobile And The Media's Imploding Biz Model

    Michael Wolff: "If the news business on the Web is depressing, contributing to the existential angst that has gripped every established news organization, mobile turns the story apocalyptic: there is no foreseeable basis on which the news establishment can support itself. There is no way even a stripped-down, aggregation-based, unpaid citizen-journalist staffed newsroom can support itself in a mobile world."

  • Paywalls Open Doors For Local News Sites

    Howard Owens: "As a matter of business reality, when an incumbent business moves deeper into sustaining innovation it opens up opportunities for disruptors. In every market where a newspaper puts up a paywall, an opportunity is created for an entrepreneur to start a local online news business."
