How mobile brought the chaos to media - with GigaOm senior writer Mathew Ingram
Does print survive? This seems like a very important question but, in reality, the only people asking it these days are the guys doing print. The rest of the world seems to have moved on and by moving on I mean moved to digital or mobile.
\n\nThe truth is that print and digital are just forms of the same thing but the thing that has changed more dramatically than the way we consume media is the way it is created and shared. This is where the conversation with GigaOm Senior writer Mathew Ingram moves quickly. Mathew has a very unique perspective having spent a huge portion of his career writing for Canada's national newspaper, The Globe and Mail. He jumped over to GigaOm about 5 years ago and hasn't looked back or reconsidered his move.
\n\nOur conversation jumps from his move to GigaOm, his take on the news/media industry as a whole today, what companies he's looking at for inspiration (or that will change media once again), the impact that mobile has had on his profession (as a consumer and creator) and a number of incredible insights into his craft.
\n\nThis episode, for me anyway, is a look at what the future of the media industry will look like: Part amazing creator, part amazing marketer, part amazing community builder and part media personality.
