Brian, there's NewsML as a way to package news, but this has a focus on syndication. This uses XHTML in the body of the content (AFAIK).

But this is an interesting alternative approach, and attractive from a SEO and spidering perspective which drives so much traffic (and hence revenue).

@Ezra Cooperstein: hey ezra,

i'd be interested to talk to you about your work at current, as i'm interested in citizen reporting/producing of media and journalism. perhaps we could grab a cup of coffee at a break?


comment to:

@Mary Louise Schumacher: The last phrase of your comments interests me, "how people consume media." I'm in newspapers, as you are, and trying to morph our newsroom while riding out the sea change. I'd be interested in reading or hearing your perspectives.
