Great trip to Norfolk, Va.

A few weeks ago, my friend, Doug Fisher, and I presented research on newspaper Web archives at the 13th annual Newspapers and Community-Building Symposium (sponsored by the National Newspaper Association and the Huck Boyd Center for Community Media--directed by Gloria Freeland of Kansas State University.)

Fisher is an instructor at the University of South Carolina School of Journalism and Mass Communications. He's also an ace copyeditor and long time (former) journalist for the Associated Press. Read his blog at: http://commonsensej.blogspot.com

Also helping us: Will Atkinson, a May 2007 graduate of Winthrop University (mass communication/journalism track) major.

When the paper is posted on the Web, I'll put the link in this blog. For now, you can find the title of our paper at http://huckboyd.jmc.ksu.edu/symposium/papers.html

(Scroll down the page till you find title of our research paper.)

Soon, I'll upload a few pictures from Norfolk.

By the way, the correct prounciation of "Norfolk" is "Norfuck." (Accent on first syllable.)

Really. No kidding.
