Cardiff.
Another week, another presentation: Jean, Stephen, and I have now made it to Cardiff, where we’re participating in the Future of Journalism conference. Today, we presented our paper on Twitter research methods for journalists and journalism researchers, which offers a quick overview of our major ways of studying Twitter (and Twitter hashtags in particular). Our slides and audio from the presentation are below – the full paper is also online. For my liveblogging from the conference, check the Future of Journalism posts on snurb.info – and there’s also the #foj11 hashtag, of course.
