My major agenda items for today's podcast are three: 1.) Twitter, Google Microsoft, real time search and all the implications therein, as discussed in Dave's post, Is Google/Microsoft/Twitter in the news business? http://www.scripting.com/stories... - Jay Rosen

2. Journalism School and what it should be, could be, is becoming. I want to talk about my new graduate program, Studio 20, and Jeff's own take on entrepreneurial J-school at CUNY. - Jay Rosen

3. If there is time, we can talk about collaboration across news organizations, which is finally starting to emerge full force. In Madison: http://atnmadison.org/ and nationally with Mother Jones and a bunch of national magazines coming together around the climate change story. http://adage.com/mediawo... - Jay Rosen

What about the NYT piece on innovation? I thought you asked a good question about that. "Only steal from the best" is my motto. :-) - Dave Winer

Also do you guys have any advice for me re what I should talk about in my 10 minutes at #140conf? - Dave Winer

which piece on innovation did you mean? probably it was this Tweet: Notice how no one says, "wait a minute, are these people *qualified* to be professional innovators?" http://jr.ly/9nhi NYT: Twitter Serves Up Ideas From Its Followers http://www.nytimes.com/2009... - Jay Rosen

Sadly, Dave's father did the night before. He had to return to New York to attend to family matters. So Jay did the show on his own with a live audience of 35 people. He decided to ask anyone who raised his or her hand to describe "an element of the rebooted system of news," and that became Rebooting the News #27. - Jay Rosen

The we are in is called Union Square 15 & 16. It's on the 4th floor of Tower Three at the Hilton. If you're a journalist, or a start-up, or just someone with new media dreams, you are welcome. You don't have to be a member of Online News Association or an official participant in the conference, just come. - Jay Rosen

Dave and I paid for the room ourselves, so that's why we can say that without fear of contradiction. Address: 333 O'Farrell Street, San Francisco, California, United States 94102 Tel: 1-415-771-1400 http://www1.hilton.com/en_US... - Jay Rosen

I'll bet that's the Hilton on O'Farrell. Wish I could get down there (3 hours away). Your timing makes it tempting. - USelaine

Thank you Jay, I'm planning on attending. - Peter Mullen

Using FF as a chatroom. I've seen it done for other podcasts and am interested in trying it for RTN. I'll watch this thread during the show. No guarantee that your comments will get in the flow of conversation, but I'll be here to discuss, esp since I won't be talking much this week (yeah right). :-) - Dave Winer

Thumbs up! - Greg Linch

Awesome. It'll give us a chance to get some "realtime" feedback. :-) - Dave Winer

love your show - the way you two chat and bounce ideas of each other really works well and it is very thought-provoking. One very tiny request... any chance you could invest in a new/better microphone? You sound like you are talking through your socks... - Ben Rooney

Ben, we're using telephones. That's as good as it gets. - Dave Winer

Skype is your friend! - Mark

We tried Skype, with pretty shitty results. - Dave Winer

@Dave Possible topic or just for this chat: What do you think about Gina Trapani's Twitalytics app? http://smarterware.org/2877... - Greg Linch

Odd, works great for Leo on every TWiT network show with up to 4 guests! - Mark

I know Leo Laporte has some amazing hi-tech set up (his fabled Skype-o-saurus), so that is probably outside what you want to shell out. I don't want to sound like I am whinging - I think it is a great show. - Ben Rooney

Is Gina Trapani's Twitalytics the first manifestation of a distributed Twitter? - Ben Rooney

BlogTalkRadio is working:) - David Solomont

whew! - Dave Winer

Dave, could you increase your volume? You're about 60% as loud as everyone else. - Carter Rabasa

sorry no can do - Dave Winer

But wouldn't an IPO open them to the same pressures that big corporate-owned news orgs face? That hasn't worked out too well, I think. One extreme example: Knight-Ridder. - Greg Linch

I guess I'm too late with this link, but am interested to hear thoughts on this, "A Costly Mistake?" in AJR from April/May 2009 http://www.ajr.org/Article... - Greg Linch

Twitter should let you tag your profile like Aardvark does for topics to ask you about. - Greg Linch

Paul Eedle ran something like this daily updating news slug plus updating backgrounder in a site called Out There News - waaaaay back in about 2001 or so - Ben Rooney

That's a wrap! :-) - Dave Winer

Good show! - David Solomont

Yup, enjoyed it. Feel better, Dave! - Greg Linch

"You can see real reporters dealing with a true breaking story not just a simulation of a breaking story, let their hair down and share everything they know with the world. This is the impulse of news, it's not about hiding things until they're ready, but when you know something for a fact, you want it out there as quickly as possible. And as long as something is clearly labeled as speculation it's every bit as true as a fully vetted fact." - Dave Winer from Bookmarklet
