More Blooks To Read

A followup to an earlier post on vooks (video + books) is this one on blooks - blogs + books. The website OurBlook is self-described as:

OurBlook is a website combining the dynamic online atmosphere of a blog with the researched, in-depth analysis of a book. Our online community is a collaborative resource created and used by academics, public policy officials, and journalists at the natural intersection of current events and the media. Everyday, these experts join OurBlook to engage in an on-going conversation with their colleagues that seeks out the responsible, sustainable ideas that will define our future.

If you have not used a blook, you can click to their blook, Future of Journalism, where experts discuss the future of journalism, what the information distribution map will look like in 20 years, and question whether traditional journalism is a thing of the past. Highlighed contributors include John Yemma, Chris O'Brien, and Charlotte Grimes.


Adobe
has announced that the next release of Flash will be available on iPhones and that will continue the process of redefining newspapers, textbooks and magazines.
