We have to start thinking about our own work as a smaller version of what goes on in major news agencies. The difference is that for most of us, this activity is going to be a one man show. Where they get huge budgets and hire a big staff, we do not have the luxury of learning any particular discipline deeply. We will not be using technology that is anywhere near the quality of professional organizations. However, neither do we have a boss as such to answer to. We don't need to worry about nearly as many legal issues.
While we don't have the luxury of learning any single discipline deeply, we do need at least a passing knowledge of basic ideas regarding these different disciplines. I have very little knowledge myself on these issues, but I will be keeping track of my progress in the blog as I learn what is most important to know on a functional level. I obviously have much to learn, but I want to record and share my journey with the general public as I learn it. I hope people give me feedback even at the level of helping me understand what challenges I still have to overcome.
