Vote now: What should I call my next book?

Many of you know that I’m working on an updated version to my first book, Journalism 2.0, that will be published as a college textbook in the fall and my editors and I are struggling to find the right title.

So I need your help.

People have asked if it will be called “Journalism 3.0″ and that is the working title. But I’m afraid the concept of tacking on a version number to a set of skills is tired, especially for a college audience. But there is some logic in maintaining a tie to the “brand” that has developed for Journalism 2.0.

The chapter outline is here. Please take a second and vote in the poll, or offer a better suggestion if you have one. And thanks in advance.

  1. Tim McCormick says:

    Title suggestion: Journalism @ The Speed of Light
    Subtitle: The Essential Enquiry
    Context: the vital elements of message development.
    Best wishes on completion of your updated tome.

  2. Ivica Profaca says:

    My idea would be Journalism 2.0.1

  3. The concept ‘Journalism 2.0′ isn’t a brand. And any 3.0 title will be seen early on to be trite and unimaginbative. Almost definitive of linear thinking.

    I would call it ‘Beyond Journalism’ or something like that. Or identify a key concept that doesn’t have the word ‘journalism’ in it.

    my superior suggestions:

    1. Journalism 3.1

    2. Journalism Y2K

    3. Jour-nihilism: Left Behind

  5. I’d say “Journalisn’t”, “Post-journal Writing”, or “Journalism in a Post-journal Era”.
    I won’t claim them to be neither sup- or inferior to PR’s suggestions – but I will claim that – though once great – anything including or refering to the 2.0-concept smells somewhat oldish.
