Time for a resurrection of this platform?
Claiming the name was one thing, publishing a couple of blogposts was a second. Dumping my whole TrueSlant-hitory on it an incomprehensible third.
In other words:
1. I claimed this platform a year and a half ago, knowing that a fusion of old fashioned journalism with modern style blogging could lead to something with “augmented value”.
2. I published a couple of maybe interesting thoughts and tried to ignite a discussion on other platforms. Which didn’t work out at all.
3. After the – most unfortunate – removal of trueslant.com (for which I was a blogger) from the Forbes-network, I had to dump my 100+ blogposts somewhere. And because I thought augmentedjournalism.com had gotten into a permanent state of sleep, I thought I might as well use this platform as a dump spot. Which I did, as you can see below…
But now I read this blogpost on owni.eu, and doubt has conquered my brain once again. It might not have been such a bad idea after all. So what now? Revamp this thing? Give it away? Invite owni-staff on it? Get active again? Or just fall asleep for ever?
Just tell me.
I say keep writing here if you have the time and the energy. And maybe you can ‘augment’ it by inviting others, such as the owni people, to post as well.
Sorry Bradutz, it took me a day to find out that you commented, and one more to get you out of the spambox… Anyway, what if I would send you some nice logins? If I promise you to start posting again, and we both try to activate some more people, wouldn’t that be nice?
First, I´ll get rid of all the trueslant/postings. They don´t belong here.
Let´s do it!
