Update from Brad Wolverton – Chronicle of Higher Education, Spreading the Good Word
“….my discussion group has helped me immensely lately. I’m going on ESPN
Sunday and just got a bunch of great feedback from my members, both in
my Google Group and in separate e-mail and phone correspondence, to
help prepare me for a topic.
I’m still planning to
host a staff-wide meeting here at the Chronicle to discuss setting up
social networks around your beat. At least a couple other reporters and
editors are interested in creating their own groups, and I think we’ll
see lots more folks do it.

Interesting idea
there: editors establishing a network. I think it’s a great idea for
folks who want to stay keyed in on issues but don’t have time or don’t
have a normal beat of people to call on. I’m pushing some of our
editors to consider it.
In transitioning to my
new job, I haven’t had time to set up a new network for my broader
beat, but I’m slowly gathering names of people I want in my group.
Might take a bit of time, as I don’t know as many people in this area.
But I’m excited to get one started in coming months.”
