		<description><![CDATA[Today, I get a full five minutes to share at RemakeCamp about lessons I&#8217;ve learned from working on Mediactive.com. I plan on talking about principles for selecting good tools for citizen journalists. People at this thing are way smarter than me, so I&#8217;ll probably learn more than I share. In other news, I&#8217;ve started a [...]]]></description>

Things on my radar: Serious Games Summit as it overlaps well with newsPlay and democratized media topics.

		<description><![CDATA[Lately, I&#8217;ve been turning my ears to Another Castle, a series of interviews with exceptional games thinkers. The interview with Heather Chaplin in particular makes an amazing clarification that resolves one of my questions about the relationship of videogames to journalism. Chaplin&#8217;s comments target a common mistake people make when examining James Gee&#8217;s suggestions about [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;re coming to game development with a journalist background, chances are you&#8217;re looking for other skilled individuals who can supplement your programming and art skills (or lack thereof). This puts one in the dangerous place of being the &#8220;idea guy.&#8221; Purely &#8220;idea guys/gals&#8221; scare off the digitally talented for obvious reasons. They show up [...]]]></description>

All have unique gameplay and barely breach the threshold for &#8220;game.&#8221; It may be that they each deal with relationships in their [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Following yesterday&#8217;s Knight News Challenge post, I wanted to feature this useful interview with Knight&#8217;s Gary Kebbel by the Nieman Lab. The main thought is that some applicants try too hard to recreate ideas they&#8217;ve seen win in previous years when Knight is looking to support new and different things (usually). If you&#8217;re interested in [...]]]></description>

His site was a winner of the Knight News Challenge and the majority of the conversation centered around questions from people applying for this year&#8217;s grant. As the Challenge application is due October 15th, Dave&#8217;s thoughts are timely. Let me paraphrase what [...]]]></description>

Maggie Shiels focuses more on the development in the mobile phone sector, which is definitely a place news should give as much attention to as it does the Web. The biggest thought in the piece is whether North America will jump [...]]]></description>
