		<description><![CDATA[Dr. Ross-

I wanted to send you a quick message through oDesk, but I couldn&#039;t find a link to do it. :-) I understand your budget may be limited to use me for projects, but if you really would like to hire me to do something for you...just e-mail me through oDesk and propose a budget for any given project, and we can talk about it.  Thanks!

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks Ron, for the reminder that I don&#039;t have to fill every moment with noise ---- and especially the reminder to listen more than I talk --- yes, silence is hard to come by for a talker like me but a very good thing!  Good food for thought as we enter this very busy and noisy season of the year!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[*cough* Ahem. Okay... I&#039;ll start. I&#039;m Dawn and I&#039;m a blogger. (Hi, Dawn!)I think the blog as a mieudm is a more interactive mieudm than the traditional media (print, radio, and TV) because it invites discussion and builds a community of like-minded individuals. The mieudm can be networked into such communities. An example is clearly my connection with other Conservative blogs in the state. We build a connection among ourselves and often reference each other in our writings.As far as how blogs connect/compare/contrast with journalism as we used to know it? I&#039;m not sure. Obviously, I don&#039;t research and report NEW stories. I comment on and analyze what already published accounts are reporting. I do &quot;journal&quot; but I don&#039;t consider what I do to be journalism in the traditional sense of getting a &quot;scoop&quot; and chasing down the story. Blogs, in my mind, are more like &quot;letters to the editor&quot; but they are ALL published rather than being at the mercy of the editor of a paper or the screener of calls to a radio show. My opinion is out there in cyberspace for anyone to see if he/she chooses to read it. Transparency is a big difference between bloggers and journalists. Journalists, even though they filter their facts through their own biases, claim &quot;objectivity&quot; while bloggers put their biases right out there in front of their commentary. We make no bones about our allegiances and our ideologies. Journalists might tell you that they must claim objectivity to be taken seriously; however, most of us know immediately on reading a headline which angle the reporter has come at the story given his/her biases. We know Right-colored language from Left-colored language.So, there are my two-cents. Just thinking via the keyboard... I&#039;m intensely curious what you all think! People who read blogs must have some opinion on what they&#039;re reading on blogs versus what they read in their papers or see on TV; people who blog must have some opinion on what they&#039;re writing and why. Speak up, y&#039;all!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I also think it&#039;s a bad idea to be sneaky.  Too many citizen journalists don&#039;t identify themselves as journalists when they are investigating a story or interviewing someone.  This is bad, bad, bad!  This type of reporting is just gossip reporting.]]></description>
