Journa-list
I've just stumbled upon journa-list, an interesting site that is intended to help members of the public find out more about UK journalists, what they write about, and who they write for. Type in a writer's name and read off what the site can find out about them: it gives you their most recent article, previous articles, and the topics they mention most. All very ingenious. I notice it says about me that I have "fewer bylined articles than the average journalist". It's true, too, especially when the survey is based on a survey of only 15 sites. Nice name for the site, too. I wonder how they thought of it?
