We Media Fellowship Recipients--feeling not so bad now....

We Media is a conference in NYC where the focus is on all of my interests: blogs, technology for communication, digital collaborations, citizen journalism--but it is pricey (over $600 to attend.) I applied for one of the fellowships and was a bit miffed when I didn't get one (they had 140 apps for 14 places.) Well the list of who DID get in is online now and I don't feel so bad. I would have loved to go, but the interesting mix of attendees makes me feel that I was in good company. You can page through their statements and get a sense of breadth of the media revolution going on today. It is global, rippling through business, the arts and academe. It is a typical digital do, in that what you see is evidence that old boundaries and limits are now permeable to ideas and influence just as data is now digital and available anywhere you can get a signal. Check the blogs of attendees for their reports.morph: We Media Fellowship Recipients
