Notes on slide 1

The original model
Quality product

Conversation!

to connect with the new audiences, to be relevant
enhance our content .. loop of content going from alj to people and back to alj

embracing creative commons

not true but it does it does lend itself to the new genre of reporting that is forming

A limit from the mobile world
Imposed on to an internet service
middle east the mobile service is not available

Most relevant and effective use of Twitter
War time reporting

trending topic thru out the coflict
there was a gap
conversations are happening
no one is quoting facts / propoganda
no dedicated authentic news source present

Providing verified information made an impact
RT
Even CEO
700,000 followers
Minbar Aljazeera

Twitter 12,266 members in the Arab world vs. WatWet 25,000 members (SponOn PR)
twitter IRAN

Enter Ushahidi
crowd sourcing crisis information - kenyan political unrest riots, south african violence against the foreigners
the mashup
2nd Jan 2009 - Day 7
