Podcast Notes: Mashups, Media, and Maps in a time of Cholera

We went a bit mashup crazy this week but I think it worked!

On this week's pods and blogs we featured:

• Steve Johnson of the Chicago Tribune spoke about the changing media there.


• Adrian Holovaty spoke about hyperlocal news and Everyblock


• Author of The Ghost Map, Steven Johnson spoke about John Snow and his 1850's use of mapping to fight Cholera


• Matthew Cashmore on Mashed08


• Mr Eugenides, with this week's britblog roundup

For your added pleasure, in there's a video below of Steven Johnson delivering a presentation on The Ghost Map at the TED conference
