Jeff Jarvis has revealed how Guardian Media Group gave some of its journalists a test on online reporting tools last week.
Simon Waldman, director of digital publishing for Guardian Newspapers, devised the hour and a half test in which various execs had to:
- Take pictures and upload them to Flickr
- Make a video and upload it to YouTube
- Start a wiki page and add links and a photo
- Start a blog and embed photos and video and
- Join a Facebook group.
How long would it take your newsroom to complete the test?
