Yesterday's wrapup

Many thanks to the good folks at the Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication for asking me to participate in a panel discussion on social media. It was a lot of fun, and the students and educators there are so leaps and bounds ahead of the curve when it comes to emerging technologies, it's not even funny (they had to explain what Twitter was to me).

Lots of coverage of it ...
