I think it would be interesting to attend the Society of Environmental Journalists convention for several reasons. (Want to sponsor me? I’ll put your sponsor tag in every blog post!)
Get Some New Media Attention
In case you’re wondering about how you can get noticed in the new media world you might want to get yesterday’s Wall Street Journal. I’m sure this is archived online too if you’re a subscriber. It’s called, “How to get attention in a New-Media World.”

HAT Radio
It looks like Hoosier Ag Today is really on the air now.
