> What is the impact of blogs, YouTube, Twitter, Hyves, Facebook, 
> LinkedIn, MSN, RSS, UGC, API's, iPhones, eReaders and other new 
> digital technologies and web 2.0 innovations on the media and 
> communication industry? Are newspapers, radio and TV still important 
> ingredients in the consumer's media diet? And if so, how do 
> traditional media use the new opportunities? What are the latest 
> strategies for content creation and distribution? Should journalists 
> and other media professionals invite users to participate, should 
> they employ new platforms for distribution and new ways of gathering 
> information?
>
> Crossmedia Impact stands for new ways of communicating, publishing 
> and marketing. The conference will present examples of good and bad 
> practices founded on solid theoretical models. Online media may 
> indeed have many benefits; but to be truly successful, media must 
> produce more and better targeted content in the appropriate media mix.
>
> Issues to be covered at the conference will include: collaborative 
> story-making and community generated content, the rise of on-demand 
> media, digital and mobile video production, social networks, new 
> digital business models, the use of blogs and Twitter for media professionals.
>
> This conference will give you an overview of the different ways to 
> deliver news, information and entertainment, thus analysing, 
> reconsidering and questioning the different experiences within a 
> broad context of issues.
>
