From the Online

I wasn’t convinced that this Guardian post really added much to the ’should journalists code’ debate (something we didn’t really discuss at news:rewired) but I thought Tony Hirst’s contribution was worth pulling out from the comments:
I was also at at the news:rewired event where Hadfield made his announcement, getting a feeling for the extent to [...]

As I noted over at Journalism.co.uk today, I’ll be occasionally posting or cross-posting over at Global Voices Online in future.
