Time For A Comeback (I'm renewed, refreshed, and ready to blog)

by Jonathan Coffman September 1, 2008

It’s been way too long since I last posted to my blog here. For that, I apollogize. It seems (and I plan to analyze this a little more later this week) that the more I Twitter and micro-blog, the more my full blog suffers. I’ve effectually decided to put my site and blog on hold, [...]

When TV Listens To Its Viewers, Amazing Things Happen

by Jonathan Coffman April 28, 2008

I’ve spent quite a bit of time looking at ways news organizations can connect and interact with their viewership.

Here’s what I’ve done: I now have only 2 visible email addresses, Gmail and my @jonathancoffman.com mail. Those other addresses (.Mac, Yahoo!, Mizzou, and my secondary Gmail) all now [...]

A Personal Update

by Jonathan Coffman April 19, 2008
