This was a good show and I'd like to echo Steve Smith's comments about this being an exciting time to be in journalism and I, too, wish I was 20 y.o. and just getting started! It's exciting because technology now allows us the opportunity to hold onto the best of traditional journalism and blend it with greater community participation and debate. 

The Oregonian just launched four hyperlocal websites for: Tigard, Tualatin, Lake Oswego and West Linn. These websites are intensely local and a one-stop source for news. We're feeding them with great content by Oregonian staffers, and we're looking for a lot of community participation and conversation. Thanks TOL and let us know what you think.
