I’m at Dan Gillmor’s talk about citizen journalism at Berkman right now.
Webcast: freenode.net

I imagine the talk will go until at least 8 pm, possibly 8:30 pm. Join us if you can!

I’m not sure how many notes I’m going to talk.

Dan calls his car, which is a Prius, a computer on wheels. I thought at least one of you would chuckle at that.

Quite a few people in the room are working on or very interested in specific citizen journalism projects, so we’re going around the room talking about them, like H2otown. (Check out the post about a new library with a cafe and someone working on a solution for lost luggage.)

Dan’s looking for people to help with his center’s projects. If you’re interested, drop him a line. He’s particularly interested in how the media is trying to tap citizen journalism.
