Interesting discussion at DAVOS 2007 regarding how MSN and new media [bloggers, etc] can get along or if it is possible to do so. Classic quote:
“A blogging entrepreneur drew a useful distinction between old mainstream media (MSM) which had attention deficit disorder and the best bloggers, who were obsessive compulsive. Newspapers started out on stories or campaigns and then got bored. Bloggers never got bored of their own subjects.” Guardian
The discussion reminds me of the old vs. new media conversations at London’s WeMedia Fringe that i participated in last year. It also reminds me of the tension between institutional church and emerging church – and the desire to work together to be a ‘mixed economy’.
