Very well written and insightful article.

Whilst I’m a thousand and one places away from being a net video fan (hardly ever watch it apart from ripped off music vids) I can see that your work is enjoyed by a niche group of geeks, and I applaud the fact you guys service them with a channel.

Quite how penetrating this reporting model becomes remains to be seen, I think outside of small niche groups the majority will of course continue to consume through mass media reporting, but it’s good PR for them to let ya in, and very smart of Thomson Reuters to pawn your services of course.

Ben was talking of broadcasting model over here bringing in some theories and isms:

Good stuff, Mike.

Mike – I am looking forward to tomorrow’s event, almost more that our first collaboration. We are effectively allowing people outside the auditorium to be as close to the action as possible without actually being there…

…and giving them a voice, it will start as a small voice, but it can only get louder.

Those of you that want to be heard at tomorrow’s event ask a question or make a comment via Twitter, and add the term “#askDC” we will find it and retweet you on @Reuters_co_uk (www.twitter.com/Reuters_co_uk)

That feed will be used on the day to relay the sentiment into the auditorium via our very own Mark Jones (www.twitter.com/MarkJones)

you can also follow the action at http://tinyurl.com/DC-Newsmaker

Thanks for the hard work Mike – see you tomorrow
