Last week, I appeared at the second annual Tech Policy Summit, held in Hollywood, which covered a wide range of important issues related to digital topics and public policy.
The one on content was titled, “How New Media Is Changing Content Creation and Distribution.” Conclusion: A lot!
I did video interviews after the session with two of the three panelists: Gregg Spiridellis, co-founder and CEO of JibJab Media; and Andrew Keen, author of the book, “Cult of the Amateur” (the other panelist was Jonathan Taplin, longtime entrepreneur and now a professor at USC’s Annenberg School of Communication).
Both Spiridellis and Keen discuss the changing nature of content and how new media will pay for itself.
Here’s the video (and here is another video I made for a panel I also moderated, on privacy):
