    Hi, Megan. Thank you for linking to Brazen Careerist. I enjoyed poking around your blog tonight.

    Seems like it’s a great time to be studying journalism. I am constatnly amazed how different conversations with my editors at the Boston Globe are from my conversations with other widley read bloggers.

    Seems like there should be some meeting of the two somewhere, and the students studying journalism today will figure that out.

    Thanks Penelope. I really love my journalism classes, though currently most focus on traditional journalism. I get my ‘online journalism’ education from blogs and Web sites, and it really is fascinating to find different ways for news to be made available via the ‘Net.
