<p>Phew. I&#8217;m back, after a Christmas break in which my immune system saw fit to relax and welcome in a stinking cold, thwarting any grand plans I might have had about coming up with irresistible feature ideas, sorting out my contacts book and getting my accounts in order.</p>
<p>It was almost like the cumulative mental stresses and strains of 2008 congested in my head only to be blown out with gusto as 2009 arrived. Which brings me onto my next point – Happy New Year.</p>
<p>Ah, New Year, a time for reflection, reinvention, and of course, New Year’s resolutions. This time last year I was resenting being back at work – now (like many people in this country) I&#8217;m thankful to have any work at all.</p>
<p>So, as I dust off the last of the mince pie crumbs and attempt to wean my body off regular doses of red wine, cold turkey, Quality Street and every other kind of oral fixation I seem to have developed whist watching re-runs of Home Alone and the Antiques Roadshow, here are my top five, ever-so-slightly over-ambitious but necessary New Year&#8217;s, New Freelancer&#8217;s Resolutions / Commandments:</p>
<p><em>1. Thou shalt stop procrastinating.</em> Any time I feel inexplicably compelled to tune into 80s videos (read: Foreigner, Toto and Chris De Burgh) on YouTube, or sneak into the kitchen to prepare a strangely frugal yet hybrid snack made from the collective ingredients of my  kitchen cupboards, I will resist. I will use spare time wisely: chasing invoices, brainstorming ideas, reading other features and researching. Twittering however, and other genuine modes of online networking, will be self-permitted and encouraged.</p>
<p><em>2. Thou shalt aim high</em>. I must remember that my experience, expertise and capability are precious – and will not be tempted to sell myself  short or write for free. Because thou is worth it, right?</p>
<p><em>3. Thou shalt be more persistent. </em>I will make sure I&#8217;m being proactive about pitching and will not be afraid to bang on doors – everyone else is doing it, after all.</p>
<p><em>4. Thou shalt diversify and leave thy comfort zone.</em> Surely there is money to be made writing about all sorts of esoteric subjects I haven&#8217;t thought of yet?</p>
<p><em>5 Thou shalt blog, like there&#8217;s no bloggin&#8217; tomorrow.</em> Because it&#8217;s quick, effective, a great way of joining the debate and networking. I&#8217;ll be one of those bloggers with a book deal before I know it&#8230;</p>
<p>So, I&#8217;ll keep you updated as to how I get on with those &#8211; and why don&#8217;t you share any you might have with me? Right, I’m off to Dubai for ten days in an attempt to mix pleasure with work. Tune in next time to find out how I got on…</p>

<p>Season&#8217;s greetings to one and all! Journalism.co.uk is going to be tucking into its turkey and nut-roast dinners tomorrow, so in a short time we will be on holiday until January 2.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve got any news or ideas over the next week, please drop a line to <a href="mailto:judith@journalism.co.uk" target="_blank">judith at journalism.co.uk</a> or <a href="mailto:laura@journalism.co.uk">laura at journalism.co.uk</a> and we&#8217;ll be in touch soon.</p>
<p>Enjoy the break everyone, and hope your eyes rest a little from the web (though no doubt the computer screen will be replaced by the television one).</p>
<p>So, here&#8217;s raising an online glass to the media industry&#8217;s 2009. Let&#8217;s hope there will be some success stories to report alongside the ominous challenges that loom ahead.<strong>Similar Posts:</strong>

<p>It&#8217;s the season of good will, so here&#8217;s a plug for two worthy events:</p>
<blockquote><p>In aid of Leonard Cheshire Disability, newsreaders Nicholas Owen, Emily Maitliss and Katie Derham will take part in a fundraising Christmas concert.</p>
<p>Music at the event, which will be held on Thursday December 11 at the Royal Festival Hall on London&#8217;s Southbank, will come from the London Chamber Orchestra, London Philharmonic Choir and stars of stage and screen.</p>
<p>Tickets are priced from £10-£50 and are available from the Southbank Centre on 0871 663 2500 or <a href="http://www.lcdisability.org/sparkler" target="_blank">can be booked online</a>.</p></blockquote>
<p>Can&#8217;t make that? You can take part in the <a href="http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/standard/xmas-auction.do" target="_blank">Evening Standard&#8217;s ebay auction</a> from the comfort of your own desk (or lap, depending on what you use&#8230;):</p>
<blockquote><p>To raise money for charity Greenhouse, the ES is auctioning off a host of meeja-related prizes from dinner with editor Veronica Wadley, lunch with Robert Peston to accompanying Sir David Frost to a screening of Frost/Nixon.</p>
<p>The auction closes at 12pm (GMT) on Monday 15 December, so get bidding: <a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;ssPageName=STRK:MESCX:IT&amp;item=320322585369" target="_blank">lunch with Andrew Gilligan</a> is already up to £259.00 or you can get <a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;ssPageName=STRK:MESCX:IT&amp;item=320322579911" target="_blank">an audience with Brian Sewell for £101.00</a>.</p></blockquote>

<p>A day that saw plenty of job cut announcements. Here&#8217;s the roundup for this evening and Journalism.co.uk will update tomorrow.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Trinity Mirror: 78 jobs to go </strong>as reported at <a href="http://www.pressgazette.co.uk/story.asp?sectioncode=1&amp;storycode=42550&amp;c=1" target="_blank">Press Gazette</a> and <a href="http://www.holdthefrontpage.co.uk/news/081127liverpool.shtml" target="_blank">Hold the Front Page</a>. Press Gazette reported that a restructure will see journalists divided into four centralised multimedia divisions:</li>
</ul>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The publisher has today entered into a consultation period with staff and said it envisaged 59 editorial jobs would be cut. It said it was committed to voluntary redundancies where possible.</p>
<p>&#8220;The bulk of the job losses will come in Liverpool, where the 175-strong editorial team will be cut to 132 and the Liverpool Daily Post will scrap its Saturday edition.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<ul>
<li><strong>The Telegraph: 50 jobs editorial jobs cut: </strong><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2008/nov/27/telegraph-media-job-cuts"> Fifty editorial staff are to lose their jobs at Telegraph Media Group</a>, management told staff today.</li>
<p>&#8220;It is understood the cuts represent a 13-14 per cent saving to the editorial budget and will be brought into effect by Christmas at the latest,&#8221; reports MediaGuardian.</ul>

<p><em>As the UK government announces plans for crime maps for offences in England and Wales, <strong>Kristine Lowe</strong> reports for Journalism.co.uk on how Danish paper <strong>Berlingske Tidende</strong> is using its own map as a source of news and a public service.</em></p>
<p>&#8220;Crime mapping is getting government push behind it, even if police are resisting,&#8221; wrote the Guardian&#8217;s technology editor Charles Arthur this week, as the <a href="http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/technology/2008/07/28/interactive_crime_maps_for_everyone_by_christmas_says_home_office.html">government announced plans to publish local interactive crime maps</a> for every area in England and Wales by Christmas.</p>
<p>In Denmark the national daily <a href="http://www.berlingske.dk/">Berlingske Tidende</a> is already pioneering the use of crime maps as part of the newsgathering process.</p>
<p>With the help of its readers, the paper has created <a href="http://www.berlingske.dk/article/99999999/forbrydelsen/80510026/&amp;template=stdtext_noinfo">an interactive crime map</a> detailing how well the police responds to calls from the public.</p>
<p>&#8220;We have just had a major police reform here in Denmark and decided to investigate how this has worked. The politicians promised more police on the streets and more money to solve crime. We thought the best way to check the reality of these promises was to get our readers to tell us about their experiences,&#8221; Christian Jensen, editor-in-chief of Berlingske, told Journalism.co.uk.</p>
<p>The reader reports are placed on a Google map of the country and, since its launch in May, 70 crimes have been reported and plotted.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1757" title="Screenshot of Berlingske Tidende\'s crime map" src="http://blogs.journalism.co.uk/editors/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/btmap.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="365" /></p>
<p>One of the crimes reported to the map related to the alleged murder of Danish woman Pia Rönnei.</p>
<p>Despite available patrols in the area, the police force did not send officers to investigate calls from neighbours, who reported screams and loud bangs from an apartment that Rönnei was in  &#8211; something it has been forced to apologise for after the publicity the story received.</p>
<p>&#8220;In classic journalism, it is the journalists who find the stories. In our new media reality, it can just as well be the readers who alert us to issues they are concerned about,&#8221; said Jensen.</p>
<p>The newspaper has had two full-time reporters devoted to the project, and used an online journalist, photographer and production company (for live pictures) in stories they have devoted additional space to.</p>
<p>&#8220;We encourage people to get in touch with stories both in our paper edition and online, as we see a substantial increase in web traffic when we draw attention to the project in the paper edition,&#8221; Jensen explained.</p>
<p>Every single crime report on the map generates the same amount of web traffic as breaking news, he added.</p>
<p>The project has been so successful that the newspaper is preparing to launch another project in the same vein. In the next few days Berlingske will unveil a database on immigration politics, where readers can tell their own stories and read and comment on each others&#8217; accounts of their experiences with immigration authorities.</p>
<p>But the biggest challenge for the paper has been verification:</p>
<p>&#8220;That is what makes this complicated. Our journalists read through all the reports to check their credibility, but we do not have the resources to verify every single detail. That has made it even more important to clarify from the outset that we are only reporting what the readers have told us.&#8221;<strong>Similar Posts:</strong>

<p>Yes, it’s that time again, the season of favourites lists, bests of, highlights of 2007, and rough guesses of what may happen in the coming 12 months.</p>
<p>I’ve brought together the few lists I have managed to find in between crazed bouts of gorging my way through East Sussex’s entire supply of mince pies and crapulent afternoons spent selecting the wine for the Christmas party (finally decided on Blue Nun – half bottles).</p>
<p>For what it’s worth, my predictions for the next 12 months are a pocket-sized Second Life for the Asian market, Google car insurance and marriage counselling by April and some kind of Granny app for Facebook so you can check on the vital signs of elderly relatives.</p>
