Networks

Introduction

I'm editor of the Harvard Press, a weekly community newspaper, as well as a freelance reporter and book editor, with over 20 years experience in hi tech. I'm currently the principal wordmonger at Osborn Editorial.

Are you a hack (writer, content creator, etc.) or a hacker (engineer, coder, designer, etc.)?

I'm a hack first but an eager consumer of hackers work. I edit a community newspaper, publish computer books, and occasionally write content for hi tech upstarts.

Are you looking for partners to collaborate on projects, and if so, what?

Yes, I'm looking to network with journos and hackers with experience creating podcasts, screencasts and video for websites, as well as data miners with an investigative bent. At the Harvard Press, we would like to collaborate with local j-schools and papers on investigative projects.

What John Osborn is saying about this Meetup Group

It's great to to have a group that draws on the experience of working working journos and the experiments of content-oriented techies.
