This conference happens tomorrow, but I don’t know how much effort was put into letting people know about it. I read a “Breaking News” link on the Advertiser about it… today. I know I’m out of the traditional media loop, but c’mon.

I think it’s interesting how the Media in Hawai‘i – The Next 50 Years morning workshop panel consists entirely of “old” media, including KITV, KGMB, The Honolulu Advertiser, Clear Channel and Hawaii Public Radio.

I’d really like to hear this discussion. Maybe one of them will post a podcast online somewhere so people who have to work on state holidays can listen too. I mean, they are mainstream media in Hawaii. The idea of propagating engaging audio content on the web has got to be included in their “next-50-year” plan, right? They could even throw some huge Netflix pop-behinds on the page to monetize it… oh wait, the Star Bulletin isn’t on the panel. Nevermind.
