[MGP-Forum Announce] Using video in community journalism?

[Barry Parr]

We've been playing around with video quite a bit on Coastsider and I'm
discovering there are plenty of interesting things you can do with it on the
Web that go beyond what you can do with it on TV, either broadcast news or
public access.  You can see some of our work on this page:

Lately, we've been doing too much public meeting coverage for my taste. If
you go further back, you'll see some interesting segments on other topics.

Are other folks experimenting with video for ultralocal/community/citizen
journalism?  I'd like to talk about what we've learned and what we'd like to
know.  What is the ideal role for video in this medium?
