Hi Bill,

This idea seems to be gaining ground. There was a Washington Post Style
section article on the same themes a week ago, and I've been finding
possible applications in a variety of local markets.

I believe I'm the first person to post to the IVP forum, and I'd say much of
what I've already posted:

http://www.newshare.com/wiki/index.php/IVP_Wiki_talk:Community_Portal

Discussion:

*Who is moving this way or trying to establish this framework in their
current Web architecture?

*Our B2B site, [www.corridorinc.com], is moving towards some of these goals
on a shoestring budget. We provide news, links, aggregation and other data
products regardless of the source

*flexible pricing: we are strategizing what content should remain free, as
well as the possibility of different levels of subscription - if people let
us use demographic information - non-personally-identified - their
subscription rate would be lower. Specific pricing for individual stories or
information products - seminars, tutorials, etc., much like Poynter only
geared towards the entrepreneur. We plan to consider discounts and rebates
for user generated content. This feature could be an excellent invoicing
system for freelancers if done right.

*Partnering with other news sources: Our publisher is working with other
local publications - agreements pending

*What am I missing? What do organizations like ours need to keep in mind in
order to keep moving with the stream on this?

We are moving towards a redesign that will allow much more flexibility in
presentation of diverse content types - video, blogging, etc.

72.79.223.244: /* What went wrong with journalism over the past decade */

Dan Conover is a writer and filmmaker who spent 20 years in the newspaper business, 14 of them at the daily paper in Charleston, SC. His newspaper career
ended with a buyout in 2008.

Along the way he worked as a pasteup clerk, a reporter, a page designer, a political editor, a city editor (twice), an illustrator, a cartoonist, a
puzzlemaker, a web director, a blogger, a metro columnist, a features writer and a web video guy. He was named South Carolina's Journalist of the Year in
2005.

Conover hand-coded his first web page on Geocities in 1994 and began studying the digital revolution's effects on traditional media companies in 2004.

==What went wrong with journalism over the past decade==

By Dan Conover

A lot of things went wrong with journalism over the past decade, but the Web wasn't one of them. That's not an easy pitch to sell in 2009, not with the Web so clearly cast as the scapegoat for the newspaper industry's woes, but it's a truth we must confront if we want the second decade of the century to be better than the first.

We're smack in the midst of a media interregnum in 2009, and if you want to know how bad things are, here's a thought: Suddenly everybody in the newsroom is talking about “montetizing” this or that, and it's not because we wouldn't rather be talking about something else. We're just scared now, and for good reason.

Which is why I'm writing back to writing about business-minded things like The New Exotics and The Informatics Scenario. There's simply more interest in the future of professional media today – and more openness to new ideas.

But writing about new business models doesn't address our deeper problems: Poor quality, low standards, the denigration of journalism by management, and a bottom-line mentality that equates shallow popularity with newsworthiness (which is not to say that the alternatives are always better). For the professional press to regain a positive role in American society, we simply must confront these compromises. This means connecting to The People Formerly Known As The Audience in new ways, learning to communicate effectively in a networked environment, and earning trust with deeds, not words.

Networked media enabled a cultural revolution in America, but journalists missed it (psst... if you want to know where to look, start with cooperation and control) because we've focused instead on the economics of its technological tools. Our immediate survival depends on cutting our ties to the intransigent past and swimming after this wave. Those who oppose it have no future but drowning.

Dan Conover is a writer and filmmaker who spent 20 years in the newspaper business, 14 of them at the daily paper in Charleston, SC. His newspaper career
ended with a buyout in 2008.

Along the way he worked as a pasteup clerk, a reporter, a page designer, a political editor, a city editor (twice), an illustrator, a cartoonist, a
puzzlemaker, a web director, a blogger, a metro columnist, a features writer and a web video guy. He was named South Carolina's Journalist of the Year in
2005.

Conover hand-coded his first web page on Geocities in 1994 and began studying the digital revolution's effects on traditional media companies in 2004.

==What went wrong with journalism over the past decade==

By Dan Conover
A lot of things went wrong with journalism over the past decade, but the Web wasn't one of them. That's not an easy pitch to sell in 2009, not with the Web so clearly cast as the scapegoat for the newspaper industry's woes, but it's a truth we must confront if we want the second decade of the century to be better than the first.

We're smack in the midst of a media interregnum in 2009, and if you want to know how bad things are, here's a thought: Suddenly everybody in the newsroom is talking about “montetizing” this or that, and it's not because we wouldn't rather be talking about something else. We're just scared now, and for good reason.

Which is why I'm writing back to writing about business-minded things like The New Exotics and The Informatics Scenario. There's simply more interest in the future of professional media today – and more openness to new ideas.

But writing about new business models doesn't address our deeper problems: Poor quality, low standards, the denigration of journalism by management, and a bottom-line mentality that equates shallow popularity with newsworthiness (which is not to say that the alternatives are always better). For the professional press to regain a positive role in American society, we simply must confront these compromises. This means connecting to The People Formerly Known As The Audience in new ways, learning to communicate effectively in a networked environment, and earning trust with deeds, not words.

Networked media enabled a cultural revolution in America, but journalists missed it (psst... if you want to know where to look, start with cooperation and control) because we've focused instead on the economics of its technological tools. Our immediate survival depends on cutting our ties to the intransigent past and swimming after this wave. Those who oppose it have no future but drowning.

The trailing wave – looming on the distant horizon yet accelerating as it approaches – is the convention-smashing power of new tools that scale to the scope of the global information economy. This is the semantic future, and its philosophy of information is wildly foreign to the traditions of mass media. It promises to change the context in which information is created, communicated and stored, and professional journalists will be forced to account for its demands or once again seek other employment.

We failed as a profession when it came to understanding how communication was changing the world we covered, and though journalists didn't create each of the cascading failures that now plague us, it's past time that we stopped blaming our problems on the Web and “those people” on it. How we frame those issues for others will go a long way toward determining our collective fate.

==DISCUSSION: Saving newspapers: The case for "civic literacy" testing in America's schools==
Curtis Gans is [http://www1.american.edu/cdem/about/staff_gans.cfm director of American University’s Center for the Study of the American Electorate] and was a reporter for a wire service and a major city newspaper in his earlier professional life.

Gans argues that the central problem afflicting newspapers is declining readership, which has led to declining advertising, declining rates that
newspapers can charge for advertising and, in this severe recession, companies which have previously advertised no longer exist and those that
continue to exist no longer can afford to spend as much. None of this will be reversed until readership can be rekindled.

Gans argues that the decline in readership has been progressive and generational -- partly due to new technology, but also, in large measure, to
the abandonment by America's educational institutions in seeing the development of citizens as one of their primary missions. Colleges have
focused on graduate and professional education and in schools below the level of college, students are lucky if they get one civics course and one
U.S. history course in 12 years of pre-college education. The number of schools who use newspapers for the study, teaching, debate and testing on
current events has dwindled to a precious few.

Civic engagement, civic knowledge and thoughful consideration of current issues have all suffered. But relevant to this conference is the fact
that newspaper reading has suffered. A diminishing percentage of the young have developed a newspaper reading habit and less than 30 percent read
any newspapers at all. Most college freshmen fail civics tests and most now think they should be expected to be knowledgeable about politics and public affairs. Fewer than one third read a newspaper.

Restoring a knowledgeable and engaged citizenry, resuscitating newspapers and a newspaper reading habit and perhaps providing legitimate subsidy
for both begins with the one institution which has the capacity to do all of this -- America's schools.

Gans offers a five-point solution:

*Make civic and current events knowledge part of what is tested under the “No Child Left Behind” program.

*Testing, in turn, would force the development of a longitudinal civics and current events curriculum beginning in the third grade.

*Such a curriculum could and should include newspaper reading as the source for information and analysis of current events.

*This, in turn, would make possible government subsidies to newspapers for school circulation which would not impinge on editorial freedom and would substantially boost readership and likely substantially increase advertising revenues.

*If this program were carried out over the 10 years from grades three through 12, it would promote a newspaper reading habit which could last a lifetime.

Gans favors focusing on print newspapers for civic literacy programs because he says news delivery on the Internet is not commercially viable, and because online news readers spend far less time on the news than do print newspaper readers. “People graze the Internet,” he says. “They read newspapers.” The Internet encourages headline and single-story reading and fragmentation, he argues, while newspapers provide guidance, analysis, commentary across stories.

I wish I could attend, but can't. Let me just suggest, however, that the problem is not "whither journalism?" but "whither investigative
journalism?" and the absurdity of the idea that the genie of free news can be put back into the bottle of a pay wall, along with recent
congressional responses to the current newspaper crisis, including apparent rejection of the granting of monopoly exemptions, indicates that the
solution is going to be turning news organizations into non-profits that get funded by donors. A handful of those donors are going to be
civic-minded folks, while the majority are going to be folks who believe that investigations into their pet problems will demonstrate the
correctness of their cause. In other words, we are going to see a sort of return to the days when papers were politically partisan, with all that
that entails. That should keep people like those at FactCheck.org, and perhaps those at NPR and PBS, quite busy.Thanks for all you're doing,

==Jeff's observation==

Jeff VanderClute observes in email: 
This can probably just be stated verbally, but I'd like the group to
give itself permission to view Information Valet as a multiphase
evolution, so that we're not trying to solve too many problems
simultaneously.
