...And then along comes Hermida with his BBC example. I'm not saying he's proving my point, or implying that there's anything wrong with the BBC's blog software. I'm just saying I'm often appalled at how limited and/or Byzantine news orgs' CMS tools are compared to Wordpress and other tools available to the general public. Just food for thought.

This particular line of inquiry is especially timely since in just under two weeks I'll be attending NewsTools 2008, "a flexible, three-day convening that will offer journalists, technologists, entrepreneurs and funders a chance to explore ideas, form partnerships, develop projects, outline systems and businesses for sustaining 'journalism that matters.'"

In preparation for this, I'd like to ask Tidbits readers: What bugs you about the tools you currently use to gather information, create news and information content, publish and share that content, and engage your communities? What tools or features would you like to have?
