Thanks Ron

If I’m honest the idea of kit loans was inspired by my University who offer a loan (paid back in the salary) towards a bike. They use it to encourage people to be more green and healthy. The loan is interest free and large enough to be worthwhile for people. It strikes me as a win/win. We have a big issue with parking and when people suggest the bike, without the loan, that can seem a bit like saying “you sort our crappy parking problem for us”. At least the loan it feels like a team effort. (almost :) )

In terms of the personal brand I agree wholeheartedly with your view that the power is shifting from the content publishers to the content producers. There is still a big risk for individual journos to solo. But the behavior of the big orgs is almost forcing that hand.

Andy: Great suggestions, especially about subsidizing multimedia kits. I’ve been preaching celebrating failororethan a decade and no one will listen. But your’re right that as long as managers refuse to do it, they will stifle innovation. Same with personal trademarks of journalists. That ensures out future. We should do it no matter what. What we are seeing is a power shft from the content pubishers to the content producers. Publishing is becoming easy. Finding information you can trust will be left to the personal trademarks that individual professionals can establish. You can see that with the audiences being built by people who know how to use blogs and Twitter and other social networks. That’s where the audience is moving. Spot-on post.
