web 2.0

Today I had a session with the team web developer who helped answer all my web 2.0 questions and I had some pretty basic ones such as 'what is it?' He took me through various websites showing me which ones are using the technology and encouraging user generated content. We also talked about virals and creating your own channel on youtube etc. I've got a lot still to learn but at least now the thought of creating cross-platform programming doesn't sound so scary.

Welcome to my blog

Hi I'm Lee and this is my first attempt at a blog site. I work as a freelance television producer and I'm writing this blog as part of a project called the Digital Media Exchange where people who work in the traditional media industry spend 20 days working with digital agencies or production companies. I'm assigned to Liquid Solution in Liverpool and I'll be keeping this blog to let anyone who's interested know how I'm getting on and in an attempt to learn about some of the tools at the disposal of citizen journalists.
