It’s a very good point – a specific problem is how you quantify reach/depth: does older coverage ‘fade’ over time or is it indeed cumulative?

I think there’s a serious problem with the Mishra’s diagram. By plotting a time axis against a reach/depth axis, he’s created a useless paradigm because the reach/depth can never come down, it only goes up as the cumulative total increases. This is in keeping with the long-tail theory of information. I realize this may be a picky point but I hardly see how his diagram advances the model.

Hmmm.

Is it useful to have one view oriented around a live-blog as the timeline and backbone for impact of the different tools, since this method is used more and more for real stories?

We have an organisation view, and a story view.

Developing yuor point, I think we also need a perspective which catches the involvement of the reader community as they participate in conversation with, and around, an organisation, about a story.

I’d start off by putting one reader at the centre of the new diagram, and imagining flows in and out via different channels to that single person.

I agree. The point is increasingly about how to integrate the conversation. Also, in many ways this model also works for planned events, not just breaking news, certainly in the inital stages.

Yes, agree completely. Gaurav is right to highlight that my diagram is from the news organisation’s point of view, so the dotted lines are points at which they are taking in and inviting inputs from users. That doesn’t mean that conversation won’t take place around the article or the database, just that (at the time) I imagined it to be peripheral. I’d probably just make the whole thing porous now as comments on an article will still inform the analysis, etc.
