The forum will be streamed live on CBCNews.ca and segments from the discussion will appear on CBC TV and CBC Radio.

Andrew Keen, author, The Cult of the Amateur
Leonard Brody, CEO, NowPublic.com

    The 2007 Online News Association Conference is the premier conference for those who work in, or have an interest in, online media and news.

    The Online Journalism Awards have become the top awards in online journalism. Each year a distinguished panel of judges selects the very best work in nine different categories to be honored at the awards. The OJA Banquet is the event where the awards are presented, and the winners are honored for their efforts.
