Blogging Evangelist on the Future of Publishing

When newspapers began to make massive layoffs, Six Apart’s chief evangelist Anil Dash proposed what he initially called the Typepad Journalism Bailout Program.

Thousands of writers flocked to his blog network looking for answers in this confusing new media economy. GalleyCat caught up with Dash during the two-day Mediabistro Circus extravaganza for this exclusive interview.

Dash joined a future of publishing panel with PCMag.com executive editor Dan Costa led a discussion between Eileen Gittins (CEO of Blurb.com), and Rob Samuels from the NY Times. Our sibling blog FishbowlNY had an excellent report on the panel.
