Paul Biggar (NewsLabs/NewsTilt)  // skype-in talk - 1:30pm-ish

I talked about how we came to create NewsTilt (http://newstilt.com), a service to handle all the difficult parts of being a journalist-entrepreneur. There were two points: that trust in a brand is important, and that old media are truly going to die. Assume those two are true, and you end up with news being about the journalist. NewsTilt provides the journalist with everything they need so they can focus on reporting (as opposed to, say, figuring out how to increase their ad revenue). http://newstilt.com
