Recently Joe Hall and I found ourselves on CalTV talking about the recent spate of scandals surrounding Wikipedia. Check out these recent entries if you want some background. (1, 2, 3) Until they emailed me, I hadn’t heard of CalTV, but it’s a pretty neat project. It’s an entirely online news outlet set up something like a running video blog. (Actually, it looks like the site runs on a flavor of Wordpress.) But what I really like is that the way they set it up it’s all about the perspectives of people they interview - the reporter will set up the problem, but then the interface allows you to click on short edited segments of interviews. Good stuff.
