- Share your thoughts about how the newsroom of the future should be different . (And if you do, please post a copy of your answer in the forums).
- The newsroom of the future should focus on gathering information and storytelling in platform-flexible (or agnostic) ways. However, we still need specialists -- people who are especially good at writing or photography or graphics, but I hope the people we need will expand to include videographers, database experts, computer programmers and the community.
Earlier this year, the Newspaper Association of America published "Imagining the Future of Newspapers," a series of 20+ essays from some of the best thinkers in the digital media and newspaper industries. Go to www.naa.org/blog/futureofnewspapers to read the perspectives and comment.
