Knight Announces News Challenge Winners

PBS Mediashift Idea Lab Blog
Thursday, May 15, 2008

Knight Foundation CEO Alberto Ibarguen (pictured below) announced the winners at the conference this morning. I think the most exciting aspect of the next round of winners is the international focus this year. There are projects in Africa, India, and Europe, as well as the U.S. -- all focused on connecting physical communities using technology and the Internet. There also seems to be a greater focus on rural communities and using mobile technology.
