The FJP — My question is - what exactly does FJP hope to contribute to the future of journalism? At the moment, is the tumblr just a funnel for content between contributors who have the same message, or is it meant to work almost as a form of digital networking? A guide to new journalists who grow up in the age of digital media, while the people who came before them - their professors, their idols, their older classmates even, as to give them some direction in starting their career?

The simplest answer is, yes. Yes to all the above.

The longer answer is that we’d like to be a great resource for all sorts of people in journalism and media. This ranges from students to professionals, from editorial to business, from digital neophytes to veteran multimedia producers and code jockeys.

The Future Journalism Project Tumblr is very much a preliminary stage for what we’re setting out to do, and basically reflects what we find interesting in journalism, media, technology and digital culture. Our Twitter account tries to do the same.

In the next few weeks we’ll start releasing a series of videos from interviews we’ve been conducting and soon thereafter we’re launching a tutorial series.

We hope you’ll stick with us as we continue along on this ride. We doubly hope that you and others find what we do useful and entertaining. Either in that order or the reverse.
