Monthly Archives: November 2009. November 15, 2009 · 9:43 pm. A guide to Interrailing around Europe. I haven’t posted anything on this site for absolutely ages – mainly because I was lucky enough to spend the summer interrailing across Europe. So I thought I’d mark my triumphant return to the blogosphere with a bit of a guide to interrailing and a little bit of information on all the places we visited…. The Rough Guide (along with Kim’s Lonely Planet guide) gave us a really good of what to see in e...

Communication, Media and Society: The value of citizen journalism
http://opinionsofthemedia.blogspot.com/2009/04/value-of-citizen-journalism.html

Communication, Media and Society. Tuesday, February 17, 2009. Pressure from the Spin Doctor and the News Desk - A lecture with Michael White. Today I went to a lecture by Michael White. Assistant Poltical Editor for the Guardian. Michael has been with the Guardian for over 30 years and before that worked in local news.
