Have trouble publishing? Our apologies -- and an offer

If you had problems publishing a new edition on Printcasting.com between February 8 and February 16, 2010, we want to let you know that we identified and fixed a small issue today that may have caused problems for some users. It would have only affected you if you manually created a new edition (using the "Build New Editions Myself" option).

If you chose the automatic option it wouldn't have affected you -- but you also wouldn't have gotten to use the brand new whiz-bang templates and d… Continue

Thanks for the congrats on my teaching award-- much appreciated.

On meeting up while you are in Rochester, I am very much in favor of it. I can walk you through our OPL activities to date and discuss about some of the on-going project work we have that relates to the Printcasting concept. From what I can tell, we have a great deal of common ground. . .

Dan,
Read your recent post on the Media Shift Idea Lab blog. You are so right about the on-demand revolution. In my field, it is already happening. I spend a lot of my time producing online political video which viewers on CNN.com can view at their leisure and according to their own preferences for particular content and the same is true for CNN's daily video political podcast which I also help to produce Traditional cable television is still king but that may not always be the case as more and more people become accustomed to getting their news from CNN when they want it rather than when we decide to broadcast it.

Hi, Pachecod, you have a nice site.
There are always all kinds of people either in the States of China, so any sweeping generalization is not fitting. But here in China uses of cellphones among the youth for fun and interpersonal comm is sure very popular. Online bulletin board are also very active. I think keeping two things in mind can help us know better about China's digital landscape: 1. though the Internet population is expanding very fast, nearly 4/5 of China's population (esp. those in rural areas) don't even know the existence of the net; 2. a significant of Chinese internet users are online for entertainment rather than information.

Thanks Dan-- an on-the-fly print widget would be great and GroundReport would be happy to test it! I think our contributors would love it.

Congrats, Dan! Let me know how I can help out. This is going to be really cool and hopefully can help bring RSS 'to the masses'
