Want to be a media entrepreneur?

"Every citizen is a reporter" is a well-known motto of OhmyNews, a South Korean online newspaper. Then, how about this? "Any journalism student can be a media entrepreneur." This is what Jeff Jarvis, a professional journalist and blogger, said at the Exploring the Fusion Power of Public and Participatory Journalism conference last year. What he meant is that a journalism student can get out of school and use low-cost editing tools, camera and software to create a media Web site to be an entrepreneur. Well, cosidering what we have learned and witnessed in the class, it sounds quite promising. I might need to think about that, cause I am gonna graduate soon. How about you guys?
