For reports on news-industry gatherings, see http://www.newshare.org. And finally, please add a comment to this post if you have any suggestions for how you'd like to see GreylockNews.COM evolve. Or just do something low-tech -- call 413-458-8001. Is the emergence of "blogs" or "citizen journalism" an indication of dissatisfaction with established media? If so, why?
