About The Evolving Newsroom
The Evolving Newsroom is Julie Starr’s blog about the news business and journalism and such.
It’s a personal blog updated as time and inclination allow.
A journalist by trade, Julie has worked in the media for 20 years or so in NZ and the UK.
In that time she’s been a reporter, sub-editor, page layout sub, chief sub-editor, radio presenter, workflow specialist, change agent and editorial manager.
She was part of the team who designed and launched the Daily Telegraph’s integrated web-and-print newsroom in the UK, having a particular focus on future workflows.
Now based in New Zealand after 10 years overseas, Julie has launched an easy-to-use online media marketplace for quality stories called All About The Story. It’s a place to sell and buy news features, reviews, opinion pieces and other stories of interest to newspaper, magazine and web publishers. It’s easy to use so check it out!
Julie is also Editor-in-Residence at Wintec’s School of Media Arts in Hamilton, does some journalism teaching and presentations on changes affecting news companies, and takes on project work.
She has a strong interest in news workflows and delivery and increasingly in using social networks and web applications to gather and distribute news.
Julie has no idea what the news business will look like in 10 years but she’s enjoying the ride in the meantime.
You can find out a little more about her at LinkedIn and follow her, Evolving Newsroom and All About The Story on Twitter.
Julie also has a Tumblr called Magpie and runs a help site for TiddlyWiki beginners which she updates occasionally.
