Hello MediaNetters
Hope today is working out well for you. What have we got? Well...
Let's start with jobs, and 3 new jobs up on theMediaNet site today - a feature writer and two Broadcast Journalist posts
On churchandmedia.net: there's quite a lot of stuff about websites now, including a new article on getting your site up in the search rankings on Google. More on this important issue to come! Also some news about the demise of a long-standing church newspaper and an interesting new survey about trust in the media.
Event: There's another Open Source event on 24th November. OpenSource is a forum event for those who meet on the crossroads of technology and theology. With engaging talks and opportunities to share, the regular events are mind-stretching, idea-inspiring evenings fueled by good food and refreshing drinks. Sounds your kind of event?
