Of course, that then brings up the question of where the line is drawn between blogger/journalist, or if there even needs to be a line at all. But that's a whole other blog post!

In that scenario, it's funny, that Blogger is local media in Idaho. She is the expert/official nobody knows the ends in outs of the politicians in that area better than she does. Keep up the good work and thanks again for the mention! Erik Qualman Author of #! Best Seller Socialnomics Lauren: Thanks for the Socialnomics mention.

We're certainly hearing more and more about publications going 100% digital. This isn't just small titles either. The Guardian announced recently that they were pulling the print version of their technology section. Whether there is a future for printed papers remains to be seen. I know the NYT are investing in new online applications in which to view their papers, hoping to replicate the physical experience of spreading a newspaper out. The future of newspapers is a really interesting area to watch right now! Hi Sabina. We’re certainly hearing more and more about publications going 100% digital. This isn’t just small titles either.

The whole industry of print is changing and regional newspapers seem to be slower embrace this medium. However, the economic climate is forcing some well established print mediums to rethink their entire existence and make the transition. National Geographic recently decided to pull their Adventure magazine from print and continue to nurture the brand online and in mobile applications. But with change comes sacrifice, the decision resulting in the loss of more jobs.
