Last week the 1st World Digital Publishing Conference took place in London. Unfortunately only the summaries of the different talks are available. There is also only little resonance in the blogosphere.

As somebody with a technological background i’m especially pleased with the following quote:

“We need to realize that our star software developers are as important to our business as our star journalists. I think if we said this three years ago, it would have been heresy, but I think it is true.”

Carolyn McCall, Chief Executive, Guardian Media Group

Compare this to the absence technical people i noted in my newspaper next article.
