Journalism Online tackles the pressing question of how to apply
fundamental journalism skills to the online medium. It provides an
essential guide to the Internet as a research and publishing tool.
In particular, it examines how to forge key journalism skills with
the distinctive qualities of the World Wide Web to provide
compelling web content. Trainee and practicing online journalists
will learn: - core journalism skills of identifying, collecting,
selecting and presenting news and information; - multimedia skills
such as audio recording and editing; - online research methods
including use of search tools, newsgroups and listservs; - story
construction and writing for the Web; - an introduction to HTML; -
web site design for the effective use of content. Journalism Online
takes the best of the 'new' and 'old' media to provide an essential
primer for this emerging discipline. Leading web designers such as
Jakob Nielsen rub shoulders with established journalists like
Harold Evans in the search for clear guidance in this rapidly
developing field. It also provides a useful insight for non-news
organisations into how to prepare and present effective web content
and avoid the deepest pitfall of the online world - being ignored.
