#Newsfoo at a Distance
NEW YORK -- Curating Newsfoo Camp, Dec. 3-5, 2010, at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication, Arizona State University.

#newsfoo - What the Hashtag?!Description, links, stats, and real-time stream for the #newsfoo hashtag on Twitter- Shame the link above doesn't embed the data, but if you will click you will see updated tweet stats from the #newsfoo event at Cronkite Journalism Arizona State University this weekend.Editing nearly 2,000 tweets down to around 85, I went through each of the attendee's Twitter handles as well as searched Flickr, YouTube and Facebook to curate, capture and share some of the great information shared at this event. It's labor intensive but I'm really enjoying learning how to use Storify as a tool.Is it journalism?
