Whew, I am glad that our Topics class (Human Rights was the topic) worked to produce a CD-ROM of conference highlights. I like to keep a bit ahead of the commercial application crowd. If you would like to see Columbia College's Journalism students' CD-ROM, drop me an email. I think I will upload it, as though it is on a CD-ROM, it uses a browser to display its content.

The idea that the print version will build readership among the coveted younger audience by getting their interest via the CD is interesting. It could work, but I am wondering if the under 25s haven't given up the CD as media in favor of their MP3s and MP3 players which are like portable hard drives. Just a thought.
