@zhongnanhai Yes, due to Clinton's (Hillary) nomination this is supposed to be the last overseas #cgi
@imstevenlee Thanks! That sounds like what happens in Japan with cellphone novels: some have even been turned into top movies and TV series.
@zhongnanhai #cgi Yes, Clinton Global Initiative has great people and content. But won't make it out of the room if they don't let media in.
#cgi Clinton Global Initiative is very blogger and journalist unfriendly. Media prohibited from getting near delegates. They want coverage?
@moonstarlady #cgi No, I don't think there is a public part of the Clinton Global Initiative. At plenary they took only wrritten questions.
@imstevenlee Really? Do you have any good examples of big mobile phone novels in China? Are they any good?
@gregorylent the music analogy for journalism is very interesting, but problematic too. should do a posting on this, not a twitter!
Heading over to the Clinton Global Initiative in Hong Kong. Any twitterers there? #cgi
@gregorylent Oh no, are we are going back to the era of proto-journalism? Off with your head!
Reading about mobile phone novels in Japan. When will it spread? http://is.gd/9Pi8
@gregorylent Patronage may work for art, but a journalist bites the hand that feeds him/her: Afflict the comfortable, comfort the afflicted.
@gregorylent Exactly! You won't get the best and brightest to work for just food and shelter. Dangerous time if there is no media oversight.
RT @niubi "Has the Asian Contemporary Bubble Burst? - ARTINFO.com" ( http://tinyurl.com/5molfg )
@gregorylent Yes and those storytellers have more tools at their disposal than ever before. The problem: How will they make money?
@michetravi Yes, the downward trend for traditional media just got much sharper. Sadly, I don't see how it is coming back. Solutions anyone?
@michetravi Opportunities will be there for freelancers who hussle. Staff positions no longer exist, but they still need to fill pages.
@amichetti I spelled "grammar" incorrectly and invented "worsering" to make a point about bad editing. 3 people corrected me (inc my mother)
@imagethief Yes, hardly a day passes without layoffs of editors at publications. There is an impact. Sad because I see no alternative.
@amichetti Yes, publishing speed and mass layoffs have led to a worsering of grammer in publications.
@geraldinelemeur Perhaps your mac was rebelling against the stickers on the back that can be see on your profile photo.
