Another rapid evolution that could have a significant impact on many newspapers, either directly or indirectly.

"Will the Internet Save Newspapers?" - NYTimes.com
A very thoughtful piece from The New York Times' Bill KELLER. It strikes a great note on which to start the Congress next week.
"In Europe, Cooking Classes for Every Palate" - NYTimes.com
Note the Vienna class at the end - in apple strudel making. One hour. Looks like it might be a nice followup, or even an appetizer, after or before the Congress.
"Mashable, Once a One-Man Blog, Gains Clout in Social Media" - NYTimes.com
Following news is turning out to be a very complicated and critical process.

"Unforgettable Foods, from Austrian Apricots to Parisian Butter" - NYTimes.com
Note the Austrian apricots!
01 October 2011
"Deal Sites Have Fading Allure for Merchants" - NYTimes.com
Newspapers have a lot more to learn about these offerings, their impact on customers, and how best to respond.
"Have you been ‘Brandwashed’ as a consumer?" - TODAY.com
This might be worth reviewing for the Branding session at the Congress.
"Austria Travel Guide - Hotels, Restaurants, Sightseeing in Austria" - New York Times Travel
A variety of perspectives and news items relating to Austria from The New York Times. I would be happy to add links to other newspapers that have collected the same sort of informaiton about Austria - just send me the links?
"China paper urges Europe get act together on debt crisis" - Reuters
Sometimes we overlook just how important a role newspapers play in the economic challenges of today.

30 September 2011
"You Love Your iPhone. Literally" - NYTimes.com
How do you suppose this compares with loving your newspaper?
"Pork Cutlets From Two Continents" - A Good Appetite - NYTimes.com
For those planning to eat while in Vienna, and perhaps have a little background thinking from the New York perspective - at least on one dish!
"Tweets reveal worldwide moods" - Cornell Chronicle
I hope we will have a chance to talk about this study in the context of newspapers and news publishers. What actions might be worth considering as a result of this? Of course, no one can or should control the news, but are there some ways that newspapers could take advantage of this to serve customers better?
"Student Opinion | Do Apps Help You or Just Waste Your Time?" - NYTimes.com
It will be very interesting to see what students say in response to this post in The New York Times.
"OSCE Media Freedom Representative calls on Moldova to release Russian writer and journalist blogger - Representative on Freedom of the Media" - OSCE
I still don't know if the OSCE will be represented in any way at the Congress in the OSCE's home city of Vienna. Here's hoping that someone attends. These are critically important issues.
"Reporters' Worst Enemy Is Reputation" - NYTimes.com
Roy GREENSLADE, mentioned here, is scheduled to join us in Vienna.
"Why Magazine Publishers Like the Fire" - NYTimes.com
I hope we will be able to fill in the newspaper reaction to Fire in Vienna.
