Guest Speaker, Mark Briggs 10/19/09

Last week Mark Briggs came to the class to tell us about his career in journalism. He used to work as an editor for Tacoma News Tribune for about 15 years; but left the company to start his own business, he is the chief executive of Serra Media. He wrote 2 books, Journalism 2.0: How to survive and thrive , which was released in 2007 and Journalism Next : A Practical Guide to Digital Reporting and Publishing , which will be published later this year.

I like the different sections on the website ( Serra Media), it consists of
* News garden ( local news)
* TownLuxe ( local shopping bargains and discounts :bargain babe.com)- LA
* Where to go ( maps, etc)
