Harvard conference : “Blogging, Journalism and Credibility”

Not sure how they survived the blizzard, but there was conference of blog big wigs at Harvard this Friday and Saturday entitled “Blogging, Journalism and Credibility: Battleground and Common Ground.”

The conference brought together a select group of thoughtful bloggers and journalists and was organized by the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at the Harvard Law School, the American Library Association’s Office of Information Technology and the Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government.

Though the conference represented more of a how the world of journalism is being transformed by blogging and vice versa as opposed to the marketing and PR power of blogs, I thought it important you be aware of the conference if you wanted to check it out. Reports from such participants as Rebecca MacKinnon and Jay Rosen, and links to transcripts and audio are on the conference’s blog.
