Drafts Of Possible Stories For Ohmynews 08/09

Drafts of possible stories for OhmyNews, autumn/winter 2006 Updated for autumn/winter 2008/2009

This text is a way to reach search spiders around future news stories and may be coherent.(see previous version). http://www.learn9.net/hs06.html This is not for "lean back" consumers of news though stories will be on offer. Meanwhile you can "lean forward" and check other sources with this timescale as a prompt. Since an OhmyNews conference on citizen journalism I have written several stories about UK trade shows. The same ones come round again so I will write similar stories. The progress is that the UK is now accepting broadband in a way comparable to where South Korea has been for a while. The websites I work on have recently not been updated as frequently as when I did less blogging. They tend to be more static but with more significant or at least considered content. I will start to put draft news on these pages or versions of future stories after the events. Also more comment and speculation in the blogs. the eventual reports for OhmyNews will be based on past events and verifiable facts.

------------------------------------------------version for Scribd May 2008 Hello Spiders (draft news) http://hellospiders.blogspot.com/ This text is a way to reach search spiders around future news stories and may be coherent.(see previous version). http://www.learn9.net/hs06.html This is not for "lean back" consumers of news though stories will be on offer. Meanwhile you can "lean forward" and check other sources with this timescale as a prompt. Since an OhmyNews conference on citizen journalism I have written several stories about UK trade shows. This is written just after the Adobe webcast for financial analysts and ahead of the drupa print event in Dusseldorf. Dates cover the period till Learning Technology early in 2009. So if the websites and/or blogs are not updated as quickly as they should be, do some searching yourself and treat this as a guide.Some of my writing may be fiction. May 1 Adobe Financial Analysts webcast http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/invrelations/ 2008_analyst_mtg/2008analystmee ting.html Shantanu Narayan is pleased with the strategic planning, aligning resources with trends. So this could be a real time take on what is happening around web video and mobile devices. However, other events are in another worldview it seems. Hard copy has more or less vanished in San Jose.

============================================ below here from 2006 I am getting to think in headlines so start with these. Probably the editors will think of their own. I am beginning to repeat myself as I have been writing for OhmyNews for a couple of years. Stories that assumed too much previous knowledge have been rejected by editors so I may carry on repeating things that need to be explained. I am registered as press for Digital Print World and Online Information. The stories will be ahead of these or soon after. http://www.digitalprintworld.co.uk http://www.online-information.co.uk Round about now the print industry is clearly enough in a digital context for a shift in perspective to be clarified. A lot of knowledge authority is tied up in books so there are ramifications in how this is recorded. Adobe skews away from Print London college still adjusting to "Communication" This is now submitted Previously Print morphs to Communication Open Source catches up with Quark 4 JDF still a mystery for print customers At IPEX I did a report on Open Source, mostly based on a presentation by Gee Ranishana from Dalim. I am aware that Scribus is making progress and Linux is appearing on many desktops. I can't see Dalim or Turning Point Technologies on the exhibitor list but there may be other info. Maybe Open Source now has the same sort of mindshare as Adobe and Microsoft so no longer needs to be represented at trade shows. Open Source discussion tends to be very aware about XML so the JDF options are not mysterious.

So far all the articles about JDF sem to be just about internal workflow. Surely the customers will find out about it eventually? JDF is not a new feature in Actrobat 8, it just appears that way as nothing was explained about Acrobat 7. It could be deja vue all over again. Quark job jackets are promoted to some extent. Previously Open Source arrives at the XML IPEX Flash fails to engage with information Text still scores for ease of editing My guess is that there will be almost no sign of Flash at Online Information. There is no Adobe stand. My opinion is that text is actually still the best way to engage attention because it can be easily copied or edited so someone else can combine it into their own understanding or offer a different version. Flash is best known for really annoying adverts. It may be useful for protecting copyright as there is no right click and save. Otherwise my guess is that the PDF preference will continue, with editing rights turned on. see blog and comment above Google seen as 'legit' at Online Information "Oh No It Isn't" say print publishers Stories developed in December will be well into the pantomime season. The determining precedents for copyright will be established around music and short videos. There is some base now of acceptance for the Google approach to scanning hard copy. How large that base is will be clarified by an event such as Online Information.
