Hello to all who have been following the progress of the newly formed Public Journalism Network. We are making progress and a website is under construction. The elements we are building into it include:

The Home Page on which we will have a space for updating everything that is new in the world of public journalism and related areas. Think Romenesko for public journalists.

The Global Forum This will be our place for international discussions about issues concerning public journalism, the press and democracy.

Of course, we will be looking for ideas from each of you. We'll need tips for items of interest for the home page updates and we will need discussion topics that will interest journalists and educators worldwide. You might even want to help moderate one of the discussions. We are looking to have the new site up and running within a couple of weeks.

By the way, the shorthand for the Public Journalism Network is PJNet. Also when the new PJNet.org site is up, we will have lots housekeeping information concerning things like membership and events. So stay tuned, and if you have ideas, let me know via email. We'll be in touch.
