The latest news:rewired conference took place on 13 July. With the tagline: Full stream ahead and a focus on tools, techniques and tips there were lots of juicy takeaways.
Stonking coverage – liveblogged using CoveritLive, followed by a summary blog post and then a compilation of presentations and video (although they aren’t quite all there yet and there’s no links on the programme page). Plus ace liveblogging from @adders and reflective posts from @currybet coming along as well.
Twitter: #newsrw | @newsrewired. For a flavour of the tweets plus a sense of the flow of the day see the Storify round-up, and if you are of a visual bent there’s a photo slideshow too.
My takeaways:
