Opportunity Knocks

Hi Nick

Juliette informed us about this awesome opportunity that was offered to you. We'd like to do a write up on you for our weekly newsletter.
Please could you supply us with a recent photo of yourself as well as give us a brief bio (a small paragraph would be perfect, it doesn't need to be too long).

Much appreciated and congratulations!

Kind regards

Tegan

Hello Nick
As discussed telephonically, Rhodes has offered to sponsor a reporter.co.za contributor to attend this conference in September.

I believe you'd be the best person to represent the cause of citizen journalism, because of your time in Korea where onmynews is so strong but, more particularly, because you have been reporting news and interviewing people of interest for our website - so you would be well-positioned to actively participate in the conference.

I'd hope it is interesting enough for you to actually report on it for reporter.co.za too.

Best regards

PS Rhodes will follow up with you on the sponsorship details, but here is the info they've put up on their website.
Join us for the first African citizen media and blogging conference on 14 and 15 September 2006
The event is hosted by the New Media Lab as part of Highway Africa 2006 and will take place in the Africa Media Matrix Building on Rhodes University Campus in Grahamstown, South Africa.
