how to adapt the practice and business of journalism to the Web

Gather and manage user-generated content with NoteStar

NoteStar, enables teachers (and why not journalists) to lead information acquisition, verification and generation around topics of their choice.

If it seems too simplified, check out Wetpaint, a wiki creation service. Here’s a video tutorial on using it from Common Craft.

I’ve mentioned this before, but why not set up a public account with one of the many online storage services popping up? Think of it like a media mailbox for you and your customers. Options:

  1. Boxstr (10 GB, though it has been recently hacked).
  2. Box (I Like the widget feature for this one)
  3. divShare
  4. DigitalBucket
  5. MediaFire
  6. OmniDrive
  7. Openomy

And if keeping track of passwords is getting you down, check out password-management service Clipperz.
