Digital Futures, EBU Geneva 7-8 October



Realtime breaking news da Ginevra, via GTalk. Tutti sul blogcast di Andrea B. dal convegno EBU su media digitali e nuovo giornalismo. Per adesso è un servizio sperimentale, basato sui server di Andrea, ma forse l'EBU farebbe bene a svegliarsi, magari fare anche del webcasting dei suoi eventi... La tipa qui a fianco - tra l'altro - è la "capa" del DRM Consortium e lavora per la Beeb.
Jeez, we *are* connected, aren't we? Please Mike, let's webcast meetings such as this, next time. I feel we need a realtime feed from EBU's experts when topics like these are being discussed. Web (and radio) audiences should be able to interact live, too.

A proposito, ecco il programma delle due giornate:
