The way that we interact with media has gone through several revolutions. Today, the conventional barriers between news production and consumption are undoubtedly gone.
Blake Eskin spent the mid-90s as a fact checker for The New Yorker, so he knew the organization well when he became the magazine’s first web editor in 2006. In his six years in that role, he helped make newyorker.com a platform for interactive coverage and blogging and brought the magazine to the digital world of e-readers and tablets.
The program for the 13th International Symposium on Online Journalism (ISOJ) has been announced, and the stellar line-up includes journalists from publications like The New York Times, the Dallas Morning News, the Washington Post, Spain's El País, and Argentina's La Nación, and panels on such topics as smart phones, social media, entrepreneurship, and database reporting.

Thank you for visiting the Web site of the International Symposium on Online Journalism at the University of Texas at Austin. You will find here a unique and rich repository of information on the progress of Online Journalism, with comments and insights from professionals and scholars who have been working on the frontlines.
Since 1999, editors, producers, executives, and academics from around the country (and lately from around the world) have gathered in Austin every year (except 2000) to discuss the evolution of this new genre of journalism. The Symposium has been a small, but very intense conference that serves as a barometer for the state of Online Journalism.
