PBS Launching Media and Technology Blog

Posted on January 14, 2006

Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) is launching a new blog called MediaShift on January 18th. The blog is billed as "your guide to the digital media revolution." It will cover new media including blogs, podcasts, wikis, citizen journalism, and RSS news readers.

The blog will be hosted by Mark Glaser, a journalist who has covered online media and technology for multiple web publications and major newspapers. Here is what Glaser has to say about the upcoming blog.

"I'm thrilled to be working with pbs.org, one of the most trusted names in media, to cover the topical subject of how technology and the Net are transforming the media. After writing about blogs and new media as an observer for so many years, I'm finally walking my talk by writing a blog, and actually practicing what I've preached for so long. I'm looking forward to writing about new forms of journalism and media while also submerging myself in this world even more -- and letting my audience participate in new ways."
