matter. *cries*

The Los Angeles Times goes multimedia
The Los Angeles Times goes multimedia
03/21/2003 12:14 AM The Los Angeles Times goes
multimedia. For the past few weeks, the LA Times has begun a
significant push into offering video, audio, and interactive Flash on
their website. One of the most interesting aspects is that the paper
has moved one step beyond simply replaying AP Television clips as many
sites have done; the LA Times writers are stand before the cameras and
microphones themselves and report stories in a stuttering,
non-hairsprayed, introverted demeanor that I find very refreshing,
though so far I have gleaned very little additional information from
it. When does (or can) this mode of journalism on the web rise above
gimmickry or 'just because we can' and add value to a written article?
Can video/tv news rise above mere spectacle?

Fitzgerald, when shop owners hang up "closed" signs and the fierce

Figallo talks about "Putting conversation to work." He's one of the
founders of The Well and lived on The Farm, a well-known hippy
commune, for years; Stewart Brand, the creator of The Well, wanted
people with communal experience running it, not businesspeople.
"Attention is energy," he says: the person being attended to gets
energy from it, including people who are being jerks. Conversations
that work, he says, are different than ones where people connect for
enjoyment. He's thinking of conversations as something that
organizations do to get their jobs done....

Love the taste, fussiness and brown teeth of tea-drinking, but don't
have time to boil a kettle? No worries: tea in a pill!
Indian tea scientists have produced a tea-flavoured pill that can be
chewed or quickly dissolved in hot or cold water.
The brownish tablet weighs 0.3 grams and consists of 80 percent tea
and 20 percent other flavours -- a combination the inventors at the
Tocklai tea research centre in Assam say peps you up just like a
traditional cuppa.
"You can suck it, chew it or dissolve it in water the way you like to
have it and still feel the taste of a real cup of tea," said the
centre's director, Mridul Hazarika.
