For most small newspapers, the first step towards being able to value structured data is getting their content in a database.
Quote: Unstructured data is typically said to account for up to 80 percent of information stored on business computer systems. While this is a widely accepted notion, I'm inclined to agree with Seth Grimes that this 80 percent rule is inflated, depending on the type of business. Still, If we could structure even a fraction of that data, it would create significant value for small newspapers. Added: March 20, 2010 at 12:39AM EDT

Looks like it was a great panel led by Matt Thompson, Jay Rosen, Staci Kramer, and Tristan Harris.
Quote: One of the continuing conversations about how to improve journalism is how to cover ongoing stories. Specifically, how do journalists provide the context that shows people the big picture, not just the latest developments? Added: March 15, 2010 at 12:30PM EDT

Bionic Journalism is leveraging the best of what machines can do against the best of what humans can do.
Quote: AOL has built a three legged stool to create content: part professional, part freelance, and part aggregated . . . but its model is far more hand-crafted than the other new players in the mass content creation space. “The essence of journalism has always been separating signal from noise,” says Hansell. “It’s all judgment. It’s all selecting the best bits.” What AOL hopes to create with Seed is an editorial machine which automates the assignment process as much as possible, but keeps the final selection part in human hands.
