My notes are quick notes for my reference… use it don’t use it. It could potentially be useful for some.
- Creating content on the web is about making content available. You need to point your audience to the best stuff. This builds trust and keeps them coming back. For those frowning here’s an example: I will keep returning to CapeTownMagazine. com because I know I will find up to date and relevant list of festivals and activities in Cape Town. I am assured that I will be able to navigate to relevant establishments and activities through the use of their site. It thus ads value to my life.

- There are no more secrets.
- Innovation is inexpensive. It’s relatively cheap to try new stuff. This is the best time to be a journalistic entrepreneur and to create your own job.
- Love the quote: Transparency allows us to triangulate reality.
