Congratulations, Placeblogger, Global Voices, and the Citizen Media Law Project!
The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation announced its first Knight News Challenge awards. Among the many exciting citizen journalism projects that received funding are Lisa William’s Placeblogger, Global Voices, and the Citizen Medial Law Project. The latter two are Berkman Center projects, so there’s a post on the Berkman blog with more details. Lisa has a post with more info about Placeblogger’s award.
(Oh, hey, I’m in the credits. *blush* Wow.)
