Robert Hernandez wrote a nice post about the birth of #wjchat, a Twitter-based chat for Web journalists.
We’re three weeks in .. I’ve found being involved with this group of young, energetic Web journalists fun, invigorating and a little bit exhausting.
Robert is a cool dude. He’s Professor at USC Annenberg. Worked at seattletimes.com, SFGate.com, eXaminer.com. If you read closely, you’ll see that he has a little Web journo harem going here.
He tells our story well: DIY and passion give birth to #wjchat
And as I told Robert ( @WebJournalist ), I want Kate Winslet to play me in the movie.

I moved to the Reynolds Center for Business Journalism in August. My first major project has been to redesign the center’s Web site. We launched this week and I love it.
The goal of the center is to help business journalists and journalists who cover stories with business angles to do their jobs better. The site is designed to help us make the Reynolds Center newsy, educational and a place for business journalists to gather.
Stop by.
Tell me what you think.

Why I’m taking President Obama’s gay speech personally.
The President’s speech, which was as strong as any of his best during the Presidential campaign, moved me to tears.

At this blog, I plan to maintain resume information and share details about what I am learning and doing and exploring at work.
I will also use this blog to explore ways to use WordPress. Shoot me notes if you see cool things I should try out. Or if you think of things I that might work well on my work site: BusinessJournalism.org.
Over there on the right you’ll find posts from other blogs I write .. on journalism, things I call Perfect Moments and my Twitter feed.
