• Poynter On The Frictions of Video-journalism (locally, at least)
  "When publishers turn the focus back on their Web sites, video has to be a big part of what they do. Look at what's happening outside of journalism. YouTube delivers over a billion video streams to consumers each day. New devices are allowing consumers to view video on [devices from] cell phones to e-readers. When I first started shooting video for my newspaper's Web site in 2004, I was an anomaly. Broadband-delivered Web video was new to both consumers and publications. Now it is mainstream."
