I couldn’t make the Guardian’s Changing Media Summit 2007 through work commitments, so here’s a round-up of the coverage from around the web.
First stop: good overviews from Organ Grinder and Mike Butcher.
Then, for your print-out-and-skim-on-the-way-home pile, you’ll want to dive into a mix of brilliant near-transcripts from Suw Charman and Kevin Anderson at Strange Attractor, coverage from Greenslade, and updates from my former colleague Jodie Hopperton from the Editors’ Weblog at WAN.
Session by session:
- Opening remarks: Greenslade
- Reuters looks at the changes for ‘old media’: Strange Attractor, Greenslade, Editors’ Weblog.
