The second Web Journalist Chat on Twitter (#wjchat) will be Wednesday (tonight) at 8 p.m. ET and I’ll be the guest moderator.
(Sidenote: #wjchat is not affiliated with Wired Journalists, the Ning network I administer for Publish2.)
Here’s a preview of what we’ll be discussing:
- The relationship between programmers and journalists in your newsroom
- Beyond coding skills, what journalists and developers can learn from each other
- General resources to learn skills and specific tips
Elsewhere, Emily Monacelli posted a Q&A she did with me about the topic.
As the guest moderator, I’ll be deep into things during the chat and would greatly appreciate some real-time curation help. Drop a comment below if you’d like to help save the most insightful tweets using a Publish2 Newsgroup I’ve created.
Please join us tonight and help spread the word!
