Jay Fidell of ThinkTechHawaii has watched the evolution of Hawaii’s news media over the last decades and played a part as a columnist, tv show host, and blogger. He brought together over 200 people including speakers from Washington, D.C. and a U.S. blogger in China, and one of the top Silicon Valley industry watchers plus Hawaii’s top media together on March 18th, 2010 in Honolulu. These are several hours of video but worth watching. The finale of the conference was the presentation by John Temple of Peer News (see separate posting). Just before he spoke, Jay April of Maui’s Akaku Community Television presented a 5 minute video on the role citizen correspondents are playing on Maui. This video is at the bottom of this post.
