In July 2008, AlertNet hosted a blogging workshop at its London headquarters to help aid workers get to grips with the brave new world of blogging. The session kicked off with a discussion by a panel of experts from the media and non-profit sector:

Shane Richmond, Telegraph Communities Editor

Pete Cranston, former Oxfam Interactive Media Advisor

Neha Viswanathan, Global Voices Regional Editor for South Asia

Mark Jones, Reuters Community Editor

Here are edited highlights of the discussion.
