Content towards the future
The CEO of Reuters, Tom Glocer, and CEO of the Associated Press, Tom Curley, have each given a talk that shows they understand what kind of possibilities the evolution of the internet brings and what the role of big media in the current era of user-generated content will be. Successfull media companies will have the following roles :
- a "seeder of clouds", they will need to attract people because just providing content will not be enough.
- a "provider of tools", using open standards they will need to allow disparate people to create content of disparate types, or like in the mashup context : they need to become "data providers"
- ?filter and editor.? The good stuff will rise to the top in the online world.
