Television News Cameraman Sees Rapid Change Thanks to Citizens Media
A little over a week ago, I pointed to a most excellent post from a blogging local television news cameraman who really seems to understand the rise of citizens media (Lament of a Television News Cameraman). Well, Lenslinger's Viewfinder Blues blog has another great post about how traditional media and bloggers will work together (The Revolution WILL be televised).
Citizen journos, plugged-in politicians and an army of laptop-spondents are changing the face of media even quicker than the out-of-town experts predicted. From my street-level perspective I see it every day, age old barriers crumbling to dust, dissolving the chattering classes into the multi-tasking masses. Even in my modest mid-market, what used to be a one-way flow of information is now a churning sea of give and take. Im not sure where all this is taking us, but the trip certainly wont lack for documentation. The dawn of the Information Age is truly upon us. As a compulsive communicator, caffeine addict and chewer of thought, I couldnt be more stoked, or more exhausted.

Bleh. I am not thrilled, excited, and a-shiver, with the prospect of being data-mined and an unpaid free-lancer.
I grasp that people who want to build business off data-mining and unpaid free-lancers are all a-quiver.
But it's still pretty much a one-way world. They're up there, and I'm down here, and it's *wrong* to confuse the two.
