Today's Story Highlights

How to Build a New-Media/Old-School Journalism Hybrid
2009 is rapidly turning into a vintage year for old-school journalism
whine. Traditional newsies -- both the ink-stained wretches and the
blow-dried TV variety -- were already approaching critical mass with
their complaints about the Internet, Twitter, social media and their
impact on journalistic credibility and accountability, not to mention
their ability to remain in business.

Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Freedom
In the United States, the 4th of July is celebrated as Independence Day,
recalling the time when Americans stepped away from a government they
viewed as repressive and forged a new future. Over the years, I've
worked for a number of harsh managers and companies. Some were actually
good for me -- others not so much.

Are Contentious Debates Derailing FOSS?
Well, the Mono debate has been raging in the Linux blogosphere for some
time now, and it shows no sign of abating. Ever since RMS himself
stepped into the fray to proclaim his own opinion, the fires have been
burning higher than ever -- as we noted last week. Close to 150 fresh
comments appeared on the topic in just four days last week on LXer, for
example, with no end in sight.

Axiotron: Living Comfortably in Apple's Neutral Zone
The deafening buzz over the prospects of an Apple netbook often drowns
out the fact that a Mac tablet computer does exist -- although it isn't
exactly made by the Infinite Loop crowd. Axiotron, of El Segundo,
Calif., has had a tablet notebook based on the Mac platform in the
market for two years.

They Tweet, You Decide
Cassy Hayes and Jasmine Coleman were among the first fans to arrive
outside the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles where
Michael Jackson was brought and later pronounced dead. How had Hayes,
25, and Coleman, 21, heard the news so quickly? Twitter. The two young
women had learned about Jackson's health like so many who get their news
nowadays.

The Rise and Fall of Traditional Journalism
The term "journalism" conjures up powerful memories for many people. For
some, it's the epic confrontation between Edward R. Murrow and Sen. Joe
McCarthy, which ultimately led to the senator's downfall and the end of
the Red Scare. For others, it's Walter Cronkite, whose stentorian tones
and skill in telling the story served to chronicle the 1960s.
