Stay Current

Everyone in the public media world reads Current, right?
Well, Current isn’t just on paper any more. Be sure to join the fray online at a new Ning site setup by editor Steve Behrens. It’s called, cheekily enough, DirectCurrent.
So far writers from Current and readers are posing questions and sharing ideas both related to recent articles and just out of the blue. Good stuff.

For the last 15 years I've done what comes naturally to anyone with degrees in English, earth science and education: I taught high school for a year then worked as an IT pro in healthcare, banking, consulting and government contracting (of course!). But I also spent nearly 5 years in Alaska's largest public media company, taking the traditional radio / TV / statewide news operation online and realizing traffic gains of more than 700% in just 18 months. These days I simply turn over the occasional public media rock and tell you what I see.
