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 allaboutthestory.com. It’s a place to sell and buy news features, reviews, cartoons, caricatures and other stories of interest to newspaper, magazine and web publishers. It’s easy to use so check it out!
Julie is also managing the online version of the National Diploma in Journalism run by Wintec, where she was previously Editor-in-Residence for two years.
She has a strong interest in news workflows and infrastructure and how people are going about gathering, distributing and sharing news and information online.
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 allaboutthestory.com on Twitter.
Julie also has a somewhat neglected Tumblr called Magpie and runs a help site for TiddlyWiki beginners which she updates occasionally.
