Though I’m definitely not in this game for the money, you’re right, I’m quite optimistic about the future of news — though not necessarily the future of existing news organizations.

I believe that journalism is safe and sound on the web, but only the most savvy newspapers will make the transition intact. (Ditto TV news.)

One thing is for certain tho: journalism needs more nerds. My comrade Ryan Mark (http://www.pbs.org/idealab/2008/07/coderjournalist-governments-sh.html) and I are having a blast thinking about what comes next.
