Journalism as a process
In middle of paper writing, and no Swedish keyboard. But, I found this article that I think describe where journalism needs to go. And, since I know some of you are a bit interested in journalism and media, I thought you might be interested in Jeff Jarvis suggestion that journalism needs to step away from the foundation of it all: the story:
I want a page, a site, a something that is created, curated, edited and discussed. It will include articles. But it's also a blog that treats a topic as an ongoing and cumulative process of learning, digging, correcting, asking, answering. It's a wiki that keeps a snapshot of the latest knowledge and background. It's an aggregator that provides curated and annotated links to experts, coverage from elsewhere, a mix of opinion and source material. Finally, it's a discussion that doesn't just blather but tries to add value. It's collaborative and distributed and open but organised.
I think he is on to something very important, read the whole post here:

Now I will return to final paper writing.
