I plan to post videos and comments from Journalism That Matters - Adapting Journalism to the New News Ecology at the Poynter Institute, St. Petersburg, Florida, March 1 to 4, 2009.


I will be using my new little video camera, a Canon PowerShot SD790 IS, similiar to the the one I learned about on Mindy McAdams's blog. The video above was shot with the palm sized camera. Why the little camera? I don't have a video camera and the money. (Read why here on my blog.)

The other reason I am doing this is to see what great things can be done with little money. Sports Illustrated photographers did this with Mexican wrestlers, why not the newsroom ecology!

It's a place where journalists gather from around the world to learn the newest methods of reporting and the changing world of journalism. Watch the videos and learn!
