Take that, Novel! (and a monologue)

Skyla — Sat, 11 Oct 2008 07:42:02 GMT

I defeated the Evil Planning Monster!

Also, I attempt to be The Joker. It sounded much better when I was practicing for the wall and not the video camera. The video camera scared me and messed me up. Hopefully it'll be epic by halloween.

National Geographic Drives Traffic with User-Generated Content Initiatives

User-generated

User-generated content plays a central role in National Geographic's dynamic multimedia platform, Senior VP for online content development Rob Covey told me at the Omma Global conference last month. Users can now share their own videos on the user-generated video hub Everyday Explorers, built with online community builder KickApps and recently launched in beta.

Covey gave a presentation at the conference about how National Geographic is successfully adapting to the digital world; initiatives like the site's "My Shot, Your Shot" photo-sharing community and World Music Hub have helped drive online traffic.

Covey says they are planning to build interesting applications with the user-generated content to create a more interactive experience.

Think Before you Speak: GLSEN (The Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network) and Hilary Duff address the use of anti-gay language.

multivu — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 01:17:01 GMT

The Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) joined with The Advertising Council today to launch the first national multimedia public service advertising (PSA) campaign designed to address the use of anti-gay language among teens. The campaign launch coincides with the release of GLSEN's 2007 National School Climate Survey, which found that nearly nine in ten lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) teens report having been verbally harassed in the past school year, and almost half have been physically harassed because of their sexual orientation.

Migrant
Migrant clashes in India?s Assam

How can the state officials in Assam blame the separatist National Democratic Front of Bodoland blame them for clashes and ethnic cleansing of Muslims? Recurrent bouts of violence between indigenous tribesman and migrant Muslim population are a direct result of Bodos getting marginalized in their homeland by the influx of Muslims. Bodos who feel neglected by the central government want the illegal immigration to stop which is depriving them of job opportunities in the region. The Bangladeshi migrants have no right whatsoever to be in India yet the Congress government in Assam continues with the policy of importing Bangladeshi migrants and naturalizing them as Indian citizens with an eye on the vote bank. Much has to do with the lack of region?s political representation at the centre and utter neglect of this region in spite of abundant natural resources. The nation needs to focus its attention on the region if it wants to solve the problems inflicting this region.

CNN?s iReport mishap

An iReport contributor reported that Apple's CEO Steve Jobs had had a heart attack. Within moments of the post, the companies stock began to dip until Apple quickly responded that CNN's third-party reporting was false, Mr. Jobs was fine. The stock then resumed its normal trading pattern. CNN has since removed the post, obviously. But the fact that such false information about a prominent American CEO could be posted, without verification, on the website of one of the United States' and the world's most reputable news organization raises serious questions about the conduct of citizen journalism: who are the editors and what are the standards? The standards to be maintained are simply and obvious, they are the standards upheld by most news bureaus: honesty, decency and thorough fact-checking. As to who are the editors: we all are. It also means that as public editors we s
