Update on NewAssignment.net

Jay Rosen's NewAssignment.net has launched a temporary space while he "gets his act together." From the first entry:

New Assignment.Net is a non-profit site that tries to spark innovation in journalism by showing that open collaboration over the Internet among reporters, editors and large groups of users can produce high-quality work that serves the public interest, holds up under scrutiny, and builds trust.

You'll find more details on PressThink.

Also, news from my own little citizen journalism project called the Springfield Citizen-Press: I have one reporter preparing a local election story and another who has expressed interest in reporting. That's two more than I thought I'd have at this point. Hoo-ray!
