*Reynolds Journalism Institute consulting researcher Bill Densmore explains why news organizations must move from a physical-product-centered business to one focused on service -- helping people find the information they need to get through their day and be more engaged citizens. He argues this means helping users with their "personas" -- the demographics and preferences presented to service providers. He cites this as a new business opportunity for news organzations and lays out a scenario for a non-profit [http://www.infotrust.org Information Trust Association] which could transparently establish protocols and business rules for a "shared-user network for trust, identity, privacy and information commerce."

*Excerpted from the Amazon summary: New York Times technology writer Nick Bilton's book explains how tech is disrupting media, creating the possibility for exciting, engaging experiences, creating the new "consumnivore," a world where immediacy trumps quality and quantity; why social networks, Internet openness and new gadgets are becoming the foundation for anchoring communities and taming information overload; why they are centered in "me" -- calling for a new approach to shaping content and why people pay for <i>experiences</i> not <i>content</i> and why great storytelling and extended relationships will prevail and enable businesses to engage with customers in new ways that go beyond merely selling information, instead creating unique and meaningful experiences.

She writes: "The identity-based model of journalism is not about dumbing down the news. It is about serving individuals so well that they are getting what they want and what you—the journalist—think they need . . .  the identity-based model of journalism focuses on serving the individual while rejecting the notion that general-circulation news has value."

 +
Key findings:
 +
*Tablet usage is exploding; 31% of the U.S. internet population, ages 8-64, uses a tablet, up from 12% in 2011 and projected to rise to 47% by early 2013
 +
*Tablets have become embedded in people’s lives; the majority of tablet users are on their tablets several times a day, averaging 14 hours per week.
 +
*Content consumption continues to dominate tablet usage with 94% of tablet users accessing content & information regularly, and nearly three-quarters of tablet users accessing content at least daily.
 +
*Tablet users have an appetite for paid content; 72% of tablet users have paid for tablet apps in the past year, and 61% of tablet users have purchased any tablet content in the past year.
 +
*After seeing tablet ads, tablet users are driven to actions, including research and product purchase. Tablet users spent an average of $359 purchasing products using their tablets in the past year.
 +
*Tablet content purchasers and cross-platform tablet users are more positive about tablet ads and are more likely to purchase products from their tablets.

[[Image:Fidler.jpg|180px|thumb|left|Roger Fidler]]
 +
*Contrary to popular belief, the results of this survey show that young adults are seriously interested in consuming news provided by news organizations. Two-thirds (67%) of media consumers ages 18-34 said they used their mobile media devices to access news provided by news organizations for an average of 5.0 hours per week. Of those who also owned Apple iPads, 84% said they accessed news provided by news organizations for an average of 7.3 hours per week.
 +
*Media consumers overall are most likely to use their mobile media devices for interpersonal communication and entertainment. As percentages of actual users, both categories ranked first or second across nearly all users of the individual devices and groups of devices.
 +
*Media consumers ages 18-34 tend to spend significantly more time using their mobile media devices for nearly all categories of applications than those in older age groups.
 +
*Well over half of all mobile media owners in all age groups tend to use their devices to keep up with news provided by news organizations.
 +
*Owners of Apple iPads in all age groups were much more likely to consume news provided by news organizations and to average more time doing so than those who did not own Apple iPads. <br><br>

 +
*In 10 slides, Boston-based Forrester researcher James McQuivey uses the example of his own family budget to illustrate that users pay for access to content rather than the content itself. How do we take this fact into consideration as we reinvent the form and delivery of news? Does this mean that content companies that are just selling content (without an associated curation/personalization service) are heading toward oblivion? Or can timely, highly unique content command user payment on its own?

 +
*This post is specifically aimed at some of Apple's faux reality UI designs such as realistic-looking book pages, bookshelves as indexes to reading content, etc. (something Amazon does as well on the Kindle Fire). But there is a larger message here which is that attempting to translate traditional forms into digital spaces (or to replicate rather than recreate any design convention from an old medium to a new one) is a mistake from the get go. So, touch-tone phones don't look like dial phones, digital watches are not made with analog hands, etc. We know that the newspaper business made this mistake big time in replicating printed news reading  on the web. Newspaper paywalls, as currently structured, are attempts to translate physical home delivery to the web. Magazines are still trying to sell "issues" rather than news streams. Etc. The challenge at PivotPoint is to develop ideas that are not skeuomorphic (as defined in the post), not just in terms of UI design, but in terms of complete content delivery concepts. Things like Tapin Bay Area fit this bill. I think it's a constraint we need to put into the process for PivotPoint: let's not fall into the trap of translating stuff from one medium to another. Let's invent stuff that's native to the digital technology of the 21st C, just as physical newspapers were native to the mechanical technologies of the 19th C.  <i>Chuck Peters comments: "I liked this article, and particularly liked the last line - 'At the end of the day, there's always a temptation to go with the familiar, but the real value is going to be found elsewhere.'

*Few mid-sized U.S. dailies have made as exensive a commitment to changing to a more "infovalet" business model than <i>The Day,</i> in New London, Conn. (circ. 20,468, daily). Last year, Publisher Gary Farrugia hired Dan Williams from the New York Times Co. to begin a serious audience-development effort. In one important shift in terminology, <i>The Day</i> now refers to its customers as "members" not "subscribers," and adopted a multi-tiered membership model for services that span print, web, mobile and commerce. <i>The Day</i> invested many thousands in user demographic data about its 108,000-household primary market from Nielsen and other sources that allows them to focus on "users" not "addresses"; adopted a single-sign-on user authentication across all platforms; and offers loyalty programs and transaction opportunities for ticket sales and other items.Their goal is to be "a hub of distributed content and conversation with a local connection from a trusted source."  Williams presented slides on the transition at an industry conference in early June.
