Tweet-up and panel discussion tomorrow (in Dubai)

While few, if any, of you will be able to attend, I still thought you’d be interested in knowing about an event I’ll be participating in tomorrow. I hope to send updates via Twitter, but I’m afraid of AT&T’s data roaming charges on my iPhone so probably won’t do any live-tweeting unless there is wifi.

From the press release:

On May 24th, SAE Institute Dubai will launch its inaugural Digital Journalism program with a Tweet-up and panel at Shelter Dubai, kicking off at 7 pm.

New media has changed how news is reported and experienced. Who are these new journalists? What are their tools? Can the ‘old’ media survive? And what do audiences gain from ‘Journalism 2.0?’

Speakers for the event are:

Mark Briggs–blogger, journalist and author of Journalism 2.0 (2007), Journalism Next (2009) and CEO and co-founder of Serra Media.
Pia Heikkila–documentarian, producer, and backpack journalist filing stories her laptop around the Middle East.
Nabila Usman–writer and journalist, business development executive at Newzglobe.com, an online news portal.
Khaled Khalifa – Head of Office, United Nations – Integrated Regional Information Network (IRIN) Middle East and Asia Bureau.

The discussion will be moderated by Reg Athwal, Co-Founder and Chairman of online television platform onetvo.com.

    Both of these can be enhanced and corrected through the use of virtual reality and at the same time that these things are happening an ultra-accurate three dimensional representation of the body can also be created to help you understand exactly how the pain is caused and what you can do in terms of orientating your body against it. Such technology is new and has all the potential in the world which means that it is only going to get better with time.

    People therefore prefer to shop from the convenient of their homes rather than drive to an actual pharmacy. Another reason why online pharmacies have become very popular is because it is possible to browse though a great number of medical prescriptions and drugs in a very short time. In addition to this over sweating in many cases is also a result when a person starts panicking and in under so much stress, so getting meditation can be a lot effective way of over sweating treatment. Many people face problems with mental stress and pressure that is caused when they go out with others. So now no more getting embarrassed going to parties, get together with families and friends. Birth injuries occur more often than most people believe and sometimes the injuries occur because of the negligence of doctors, nurses or the hospital. Mothers have a deep respect for the doctor and nurses who helped bring their baby into the world. Because of this a very sad and tragic result is that often the mother blames herself for the birth injury. She just cannot perceive the doctor might be negligent. Most doctors, nurses and hospitals are excellent but when malpractice is involved in a birth injury the baby and parents must be adequately compensated. And beyond compensation, it is important that responsibility be appropriately assigned so the mother does not suffer needless emotional stress.

    Das http://www.orthopaedie-berlin-pankow.de/orthopadie/ – hostels berlin Generator liegt im Stadtteil Kreuzberg nahe der S-Bahn Haltestelle Landsberger Allee und ist leicht vom Hauptbahnhof mit einmal umsteigen zu erreichen.
    Wenn man über das Wochenende nach Berlin reisen will oder sich kurzfristig entschieden hat nach Berlin zu gehen ist diese Unterkunft zu empfehlen da sie sehr billige Zimmer mit Breakfast anbietet.
    allerdings sind die Zimmer sehr klein.Eine Dusche und eine Toilette sind ebenfalls im Zimmer vorhanden.
