What I am learning

No surprise, but now 2 months plus from being cut loose from the newspaper, I am still wandering through the wilderness of the internets. But I Twitter and I am writing theatre news for this place. I am still writing freelance for the old media newspaper that laid me off. What have I learned? I love Twitter. I could spend my life there -- and quickly go broke. I learned that I am not fast enough for the new media sprint -- yet. I've also learned I need a new, more powerful laptop.

There were more layoffs at the Democrat-Gazette yesterday. At the end of this article you will see the publisher says that after they scale back that they will hopefully build back up. I guess anything is possible. But it sure seems from my vantage point that new media has won the war.
