If A Wind Blows, Ride It | Rupert Murdoch @ Abu Dhabi Media Summit
At the opening speech of the first Abu Dhabi Media Summit, Rupert Murdoch is exhorting Arab nations to open up and let creative talents flow. Of course, he has his own agenda in mind: open it up to our content as well. This is the show-me-the-money quote: “When we look to the future, News Corporation is betting on the creative potential of the more than 335 million people who make up the Arab world.”

10 Hopeful Thoughts about the Future of Journalism | David Beard, PoynterOnLine, 8/10/09
So much gloom and doom, most of it warranted. You could almost predict this future-of-journalism talk. But let’s play contrarian. Let’s focus on great reasons to pay attention to — or participate in — creating, gathering and distributing news and information. Here are 10 hopeful points about the future of journalism.
La publicidad cambia en la era 2.0 | Alberto Borrini, La Nación, Buenos Aires, 22/9/09
Cuando confluyen, como en este particular momento histórico, las presiones de una economía incierta, consecuencia de la crisis, y el empuje imparable de los nuevos medios digitales, se impone una reflexión acerca de la adaptación de la publicidad, las relaciones públicas y el diseño gráfico al nuevo contexto comunicacional.
How social networking is changing journalism | Mercedes Bunz, Guardian.co, 18/9/09
The morning of the Oxford Social Media Convention focused on the impact of social media. Especially interesting were the statements on the panel ‘Breaking news: the changing relationships between blogs and mainstream media’.

Old Growth Media And The Future Of News (Steven Berlin Johnson en South By Southwest Interactive Festival, Austin, 14/5/09)
I
If you happened to be hanging out in front of the old College Hill Bookstore in Providence Rhode Island in 1987, on the third week of every month you would have seen a skinny 19-year-old in baggy pants, sporting a vaguely Morrissey-like haircut, walking into the bookstore several times a day.
Google’s advice to newspapers (Marissa Meyer, via Save the Media, 8/5/09)
Over the past two weeks, I’ve blogged about Jeff Jarvis’ book, “What Would Google Do?” as has my guest blogger, friend and colleague, Amber Smith. Both of us distilled ideas from the book, applying them to our experience at newspapers.
Lo que debrían escuchar los editores de periódicos (traducción del anterior)
La Asociación de Editores de Periódicos de EE UU (NAA por sus siglas en inglés) está reunida en San Diego, predicando desde el púlpito sobre su situación con un enfado y engreimiento incendiarios. El CEO de Google, Eric Schmidt, hablará ante ellos, pero de manera correcta, porque él es así y porque habrá unos cuantos cientos de editores entrados en años armados con trabucos apuntando a su corazón. Necesitan escuchar un mensaje nuevo, un mensaje rotundo que venga desde fuera. Este es el discurso que creo que deberían oír:
The speech the NAA should hear (Jeff Jarvis, BuzzMachine, 7/4/09)
The Newspaper Association of America is meeting in San Diego this week and they’re preaching up at their own choir loft with angry, self-righteous fire and brimstone about their plight. Today, Google CEO Eric Schmidt will address them, but he’ll be polite because that’s the way he is and because there’ll be a few hundred aging but armed publishers with blunderbusses aimed at his heart. They need to hear a new message, a blunt message from the outside. Here’s the speech I think they should hear:
Old Growth Media And The Future Of News (Steven Berlin Johnson, 14/3/09)
The following is a speech gave yesterday at the South By Southwest Interactive Festival in Austin.
The 21st century: comforting the afflicted. And afflicting the comfortable (Rupert Murdoch, Boyer Lectures, 7/12/08)
For the last few weeks I have shared with you my thoughts about some of the important trends and currents crashing up against our world. I have spoken of the challenging but ultimately liberating impact of technology. I’ve spoken about my own industry’s need to adapt to an internet age by turning newspapers into news brands that have what all great papers have, the trust and confidence of their readers.
The global middle class roars (Ruperto Murdoch, Boyer Lectures, 30/11/08)
Poverty is not pretty, poverty is not ennobling. Poverty is neither romantic nor rustic. We all have a responsibility to create the conditions for the poor to be less poor and then to be middle class and beyond. We all have a responsibility to challenge ideas and ideologies which have incarcerated hundreds of millions in poverty for far too long.
Fortune favours the smart (Rupert Murdoch, Boyer Lectures, 23/11/08)
As a child, I attended boarding school outside Melbourne. Bucolic and idyllic it wasn’t. So I made myself a promise. I swore that I would never become one of those fogeys who goes on and on about how his schooldays were the best days of his life.
The future of newspapers: moving beyond dead trees (Rupert Murdoch, Boyer Lectures, 16/11/08)
Today I would like to talk with you about a subject that always gets certain journalists going: the future of newspapers, and it’s a subject that has a relevance far beyond the feverish, sometimes insecure collection of egos and energy that is the journalistic profession.
