  • More talk about new media classes

    Steve Sloan has posted the second half of the Pizzacast, a discussion about a New Media class to be offered next semester in SJSU’s J-School. I’m going to stand by my idea that this class should be a training ground for Online Editors going on to student media, in the way that the 133 Copy…

  • Pizzacasting for answers

    I had an interesting time last night at the Pizzacast session. It was a small group with a wide range of interests (journalism, public relations, computer science, theater, business, aggregators), and the conversation ranged wildly from the on-topic question of what to teach in the upcoming New Media class at SJSU’s j-school, to some pleasantly…

  • Geek pizza dinner tonight

    Just a reminder: There’s a geek dinner tonight for anyone and everyone interested in talking about the New Media (lab?) class being offered next semester at SJSU’s School of Journalism and Mass Communications. If you’re an undergrad or grad student planning on taking classes in the department next semester, stop by for a slice (and/or…

  • How to cover the President

    No, I didn’t cover the Bush-in-San-Jose event, but J-School photobloggerjournalist Daniel Esch was one of the Spartan Daily staff at Cisco last Friday with the Commander-in-Chief. Check out what Daniel has to say about covering W, Arnold, and friends.

  • SJSU blogger shout out time

    There are a bunch of bloggers these days in the SJSU journalism program, and although I don’t regularly point out the ones who aren’t writing about media much, I do catch plenty of what they write in the feed vacuum known as my aggregator. So without further preamble… Andrew the “Soapbox Prophet” hasn’t posted since…

  • Talking points for a visit to Journalism 132

    [I’m sitting in on Prof. Greene’s information gathering classes this morning…] Hi everyone. I’m supposed to be providing some constructive criticism on your blog posts, but the odds are pretty good that I’ll be going off on a tangent or three, so here are links to a few things I figure I’ll be rambling on…

  • The Soapbox Prophet

    I just subscribed to this SJSU J-Schooler’s blog yesterday, then I spot him at the Salam Pax talk today, blogging it and shooting it with a webcam. Keep it up — we need more print students blogging here. The Soapbox Prophet

  • Let’s just pretend this makes any sense to you

    The word “meme,” familiar to me as more of a piece of postmodern philosophy vocabulary than a LiveJournal-esque passing around of an idea, has reared its long E twice in two weeks. First there was the ill-conceived Safire column on Blargon (and my rant about it), and now this. I usually don’t participate in this…
