Here is what made it past the ‘mark all as read’ of the weekend:

• Swedish newspaper trials article on Pirate Bay – Interesting, Very Interesting
• The 10 questions I ask myself before I publish any blog post « These Digital Times – ” used to publish my blog posts immediately after writing them. Now I write, save, reconsider, save, rewrite, save, sleep, wake…oh, and then publish. The more time I build in before publishing a post, the more visitors I get to this blog.”
• CollegeJourn: Bring A Professor chat – The archive of a cover it live session about journalism education
• Journalism.co.uk :: BBC will link from local news sites to competitors – “The BBC is to introduce more online links to other local media from its news websites, the corporation’s executive has said.” Rising above the backbiting or sop to local newspapers?
• What would you put in corporate Twitter usage guidelines? – currybetdotnet – 23 February, 2009 – Martin starts a conversation about what corporate guidelines for Twitter. Stepping around the twiiter great/crap debate I think this is a great time to have this debate. Better to do it now rather than react the problems.
• Map or independent news sites in the UK – Justin Williams has neat map of independent news websites in the UK. Thanks to @craigmcginty for the tip.
• Online community management 101 | The Evolving Newsroom – A nice ‘check list’ style post as Julie Starr recounts her experiences at a recent community workshop
• BBC News Radar – Monitoring low flying news since 2008 – This is a nice idea but why no RSS feed. Thanks to David Black for the pointer.
• Skills training is not enough for the digital journalist – Nikki Usher ponders on what should be in a training course to “help journalists learn to see the potential of what these new tools can bring to the work they do – so instead of making multimedia experts, journalists can learn how to think like them. “
• Part One: What’s an online-first newsroom? « Save the Media – First of three parts. A nice set of articles.
