| Kodak Ups Ante in Phone Camera Quality
In December, the picture-taking pioneer wrapped up a four-year, $3.4 billion overhaul aimed at transforming itself from the world's biggest film manufacturer into a leader in digital photography. Kodak slashed its work force to 26,900 from 64,000. Its stock has tumbled to near 30-year lows, and many Wall Street analysts have expressed unease over whether its transformation can succeed.

Live From Macworld: Slick Podcasting, Tricked-Out Tablet, Awesome ...
Just stick a microphone in your computer, start up a recording program, and put the sound file online. There, now you're a podcaster. However, iTunes makes it easy to find and organize podcasts for listeners and creators alike. This summer, Belkin will release Podcaststudio, a two-channel recording unit with an iPod dock that fits classic and nano models. It features a lot of different input options: combo jacks, 3.5 mm or its built-in set of stereo mics. One possible disadvantage, though, is an odd shape that makes it look like it would be a little awkward to stuff into a pocket, so those looking for a simple and easily portable voice recorder may want to look elsewhere. That same shape, though, makes it look like a good option for meetings or any other sort of desktop use.

Reviving the J-School
You do need to understand your audience, your community and the business you are in. You do need to appreciate the role of independent media, grasp the explosion of communications vehicles and value the First Amendment rights of a free press. And you’d benefit enormously from a solid liberal arts underpinning as well as a defined area of expertise. That’s why we have journalism schools. Our role is to prepare better journalists, provide them the tools to enter the marketplace and meet the demands of the industry for ready-to-work graduates that probably can not be met by English majors. Isn’t that what universities do for aspiring doctors, lawyers, chemists, engineers, teachers, philosophers and even businessmen? By the way, Michigan may not have a j-school, but I’ve taught a course in its journalism program, so I’d like to think it does value what we do.
