Surfing the web on a rainy Sunday has produced these:
video links . Alexandre Gamela shares a bunch of video how-to links that he’s been collecting. Lots of value there.
Announcing Flickr Slideshow . Flickr’s slideshow feature has added the ability to plop a video into the photostream and you can (maybe) embed the resulting show in another web site, a nice way to show a portfolio.
Poynter Online beta . Poynter’s website gets a long overdue makeover. Definitely easier to navigate and prettier, too.
Dealing with the elephant: Build the software you need, then sell it . The fourth in Ryan Sholin’s series on ways newspapers can deal with the changing world. “I heartily recommend you build an extensible Web application for the next unserved need in your organization.”
Some thoughts on ‘going local’ . A good Doug Fisher piece as we move beyond the mantra “Go hyperlocal,” and start probing what that means to real rea...

What The Newspaper Industry Could Learn About Do Or Die Innovation From General Motors . Scott Karp says what’s good for GM — throwing out the rule book and betting the farm on radical reinvention — is good for newspapers.
Cliché Photos . Gerik Parmele in defence of shooting clichés, with some very nice clichés to illustrate the point. Click around the site, Unbidden, for some of hi...

Once again, I have way too many open browser windows. They include these worthwhile bits from the web.
Links out = Links in. Check the math (please!). John Hassell with brief details on what he calls a “mathematically intimidating study” of what happens when media links out. (Hint: it correlates to the number of links coming in.)
Chris Hedges, get a grip . Yesterday, I pointed (a little snidely) to Hedges’s screed The Internet Is No Substitute for...
