Mid-1800s, Whale Oil was an economy much like the Oil industry we see today. Lard Oil, Camphene, Kerosene. Still, many whale oil merchants argued that they would not be eclipsed by the competition. Then, in 1859, \"Colonel\" Edwin L. Drake struck oil in the small town of Titusville, Pa. This black gold gushing from the ground provided a new and much more plentiful raw material for the production of kerosene, which surged throughout the country and doomed the whale oil industry.
Page designers, the printers, the writers, the copy editors, everyone.
Rules like heirarchy
- If you’re a professor, teach the latest evolution of news, don’t let someone do it who has never been around the industry but happens to know all this “Web 2.0” shit - If you’re working in a company that could lose people because of technology advances, find talent that just needs to learn the technology to be useful

We’re murderers
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
We kill jobs
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
But that’s okay
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
The world is evolving

Experts at newspapers
are losing their jobs
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
And we’re actually
starting from scratch
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Don’t Let Them
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
on’t Let Them
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Evolve Them
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
If you’re afraid of losing
your job...
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
...you must evolve.
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
There’s a difference between
Change & Evolution
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Industries don’t change
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
... but people think they do.
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
People are afraid of
change

Whale Oil Market
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
No such thing as a
Whale Oil Market
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
It was an Oil Market
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
The world is evolving
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
The world is evolving
(Like it always has, durr)
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
There is no such thing as
a newspaper industry.
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
There is only a
News Industry
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
But there is value in what
the newspaper world has
given us.
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Have faith in what’s
already out there.

Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Aren’t computers
dynamic?
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
They won’t be until
programmers stop
directing design
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
What happens when
programmers design?

The enemy is
“overstructuring”
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
WHAT IN THE
F**K?!
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Facebook isn’t required
to make information
interesting.
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
The content industry
MUST make its content
interesting.
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Newspapers got it right
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
With content,
advertising is half the
battle
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Headlines are
advertisements
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
But so is the design
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Design defines
importance

Websites don’t got it
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Because websites are
still defined as
structures of data
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Content != Outline
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Some content should be
defined as outlines
or lists
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Some content should be
defined as outlines
or lists
(but it’s usually more personal
informative information)

THEY (ALMOST)
GOT IT!
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
So who’s going to
do this for you?
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
They’re already working
(or they’re already out of work)
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Print designers should be
teaming with web designers
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
But the web designers
should be learning
from the print designers
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
The analog world has value
if they want to evolve
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
So seek the motivated ones
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
AND HIRE THEM
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Some don’t want to do
it though...
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
And many aren’t even
thinking about it.
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
If you’re one of them...
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
EVOLVE
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Survival of the Fittest
