Institute for Creative Technologies. Retraining Wire and Feature Editors to Be Web Curators. If the wire editor and feature editor roles are becoming obsolete for print newspapers, as Steve Yelvington persuasively argues, then those editors should be retrained — or retrain themselves — as web curators.
Rather than become obsolete, these editors could become essential to their news organization’s future on the web. Steve observes: On the Internet, we have no need of wire editors; if we wish to have wire content on our websites, we can plug in AP Hosted News, or run a full feed of AP Online or some similar product from another service.
But with everything on the Internet just a click away, the value of such branded and hosted wire content is low (and measurable), and even that may go away before long, based on simple cost-benefit analysis. We may be better off sending users to CNN, MSNBC and NYtimes. Best Online Collaboration Tools 2012 - Robin Good... Mind Mapping in Education - MindMeister. The Nueva School - Home. Main Page.
