OReilly: Margaret Atwood at Tools of Change conference
OReilly's Facebook page (here) has this snippet from a Twitter chat, part of the run-up to their Tools of Change conference:
In a twitterchat hosted by Tools of Change last week, Atwood reiterated the food chain concept. She wrote:
- author's role in publishing ecosystem: writers are the primary source for the foodchain. :) -2:08 PM
- Have heard authors referred to as "content," as if transmission medium were primary. -2:09 PM
- But w'out anything to transmit, transmission tools & networks would be dead. -2:10 PM
Conference starts Monday - would that I could go, but duty calls...
