Description

There’s more to online journalism than taking a 30-inch newspaper story and posting it on the Web!
How can your stories be presented more effectively online?
What skills should you develop to be prepared for the future?
What new story structures can be used to expand storytelling possibilities?

Join SABEW for a discussion of:

  • The latest thinking in how the Web can be best used for news
  • The biggest mistakes to avoid in online journalism
  • What you can do to make your stories more interactive
  • What journalists can learn from video games and I-Phone Apps
