		<title>The giNetwork is getting noticed</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m just going to say it. It&#8217;s really AWESOME to talk to people about The Independent&#8217;s successful giNetwork program and then read a well-written post about it stemming from that discussion. Thank you Mark!
A couple of days ago, Mark gave us a call from his posh digs in Austin, TX to talk about the giNetwork [...]]]></description>

		<title>Using Twitter and Facebook finally pays off in revenue</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I understand the value of social media for a newspaper.  It&#8217;s not monetary value, but it&#8217;s pretty priceless in building trust, a rapport with readers, and as tools for reporting the news as quickly as possible.
But I still kept hearing the whole &#8220;but does it make money&#8221; line from above. Finally, I can answer them [...]]]></description>

		<title>Integrate Facebook&#8217;s Like Button into Wordpress</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Facebook&#8217;s new Like The Internet takeover is underway. I think I like it despite privacy concerns. I can fiddle with my facebook privacy settings or simply choose not to &#8216;like&#8217; stuff I don&#8217;t care to share. But, I can see the benefits for driving traffic bigtime.
I&#8217;ve been playing with it tonight and was having trouble [...]]]></description>

		<title>Six of one&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Imagine you are an advertiser and you know you should be using tools like Twitter and Facebook but whenever you go to either site to set it up, you get overwhelmed and bewildered and you talk yourself out of it. You&#8217;re busy. You don&#8217;t have time to invest in this. You&#8217;re doing just fine without [...]]]></description>

		<title>Funny thing about commenting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For all the fuss we&#8217;ve made over commenting in the past year (and by &#8216;we&#8217; I mean my newspaper), the funny thing is that since we&#8217;ve turned it back on a little over a month ago with strict moderation, we&#8217;ve had a grand total of 13 comments.
We said we would only turn them on for [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Triumphant Return of Commenting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In May of 2009, I wrote about theindependent.com shutting down commenting completely.  I had high hopes that the conversation on our stories could be better handled by taking advantage of &#8216;Tweet This&#8217; and opening Cover It Live discussions on hot topics, and of course the good old Letters to the Editor.The impetus behind the decision [...]]]></description>

		<title>Does your newsroom have a Breaking News plan?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At The Independent, we&#8217;re trying to come up with a breaking news &#8220;mobilization&#8221; plan to put into place that takes into account our tools (cameras, phones, other recording equipment), our software capabilities and reporter abilities.
What? Why haven&#8217;t we done this already?
Well, it&#8217;s not like we don&#8217;t know how to cover breaking news. We do that [...]]]></description>

		<title>A plea for help with rss feed mashups</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am hoping for a little help from the cloud here.
We use Yahoo Pipes currently to mashup multiple blog feeds. But getting the mashup to display just a blog title, post title and timestamp is proving to problematic for me. I am either making this harder than it needs to be or I am just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Real-time success! A Live Tweeting Update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today was one of those days that makes you remember why you love this business so much. And if ever a case was made for every reporter in every newsroom having a smartphone, today was it.
When I walked into the newsroom this morning, the publisher was talking to the city editor and our temporary mobile [...]]]></description>

		<title>Live tweeting. An all-day experiment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the next two weeks, The Independent will be live tweeting all day, every day. What the hell am I talking about? Don&#8217;t I already tweet all day every day?
Not like this.
We had the crazy idea to spend 8 hours a day (barring travel time) each weekday traveling around the town an tweeting what&#8217;s happening [...]]]></description>
