Guest Speaker Mark Briggs

On October 19, 2009, Mark Briggs, owner of Serra Media, came in to talk to us about his company and progress over the years. Mark is also the author of the book, Journalism 2.0. Serra Media has offices in Seattle and is "a technology and services company that's taken a unique approach to the digital challenges for local publishers." They attempt to build community for hyperlocal news, shopping and information. Mark explained that the news business isn't dying, its changing, and that his company is positioned to support newspapers or whatever may come to replace them.
