fantastic service for sharing large files

without comments

Thanks to a contact with an AlJazeera journalist I discovered Yousendit.com
Maybe some of you already know about it. But I did not and I found it very useful for sharing large files like videos and big photos.

An incredible CV

with 2 comments

I have been trying to post this as an embedded video on this post but for now I give up. Nevertheless I want to share this video. It is a video CV for video editors and directors. I think it’s great.

Is Twitter the future of journalism?

without comments

I just found on journalism.co.uk this presentation on slideshare. I think it is very interesting. Although one question arise now. Is twitter really the future of journalism? I am using it and soon I am going to add my twitter feed on this blog.

Though for what concerns journalism in Italy, many journalists here still have problems trying to figure out how to use email and websites. Let alone the fact that Twitter does not support mobile updates in Italy. I still wonder why is this.
