Speaking at the Digital Media Round Table at the 58th annual World Newspaper Congress and the 12th annual World Editors Forum in Seoul, Korea, a few of Norway's top techno gurus elaborated on speeches about newspapers using mobile technologies made previously by Park Chang-hee and Jim Chisholm. Torry Pedersen, Online Editorial Director at VG Norway said that mobile is replacing the internet as the medium of choice not only in receiving news, but in reporting it. Using the example of Asia's December tsunami, he showed how SMS messaging trumped wire services and how MMS beat photo agencies in getting the word out to the world about the natural disaster. This phenomenon will only expand as mobile text, voice, and image devices proliferate. When asked how citizens will be paid for the material they contribute to such events, Pedersen responded that they should be paid the same as freelancers. Paying the mobile consumer creates a healthy system that will spread by word of mouth among the public, theoretically extending news reporting to everyone.

Concerning business models, Frode Ugland, Head of Business Development Mobile Operations at Telenor, Norway's leading telecommunications company, pointed out that younger generations are rarely paying for newspapers, but that they are used to paying for content through their mobile phone bill. Thus, by marketing and distributing their product through mobile devices to younger readers, newspapers will not only establish a new stream of revenue in youth, but will hold on to these readers as they mature. In order to succeed, however, Ugland said that newspapers will have to team with mobile operators and reform theri news to appeal to youth and adjust it to a mobile screen. Emphasizing her colleague's speech, Kristin Braa, Vice President Products, R&D at Telenor said that newspapers and mobile companies need to collaborate and learn from one another. She also noted how mobile news will change the editorial process: the key to mobile news is to create volume first and edit the content later.

In a follow up speech to Mr. Park Chang-Hee at the 58th annual World Newspaper Congress and the 12th annual World Editors Forum in Seoul, Korea, Jim Chisholm, strategy advisor for the World Association of Newspapers, described how newspapers can profit from mobile technology, declaring that "Mobile will accelerate the newspaper’s renaissance." Chisholm pointed out that, in fact, newspapers and mobile companies face a similar dilemma in that newspapers are trying to attract younger readers while mobile operators are having trouble signing up older generations. Working together could be very profitable for both media. He said that technology is changing the economics of consumerism in a manner that news organizations can no longer rely on being a single-media company and that newsrooms will have to learn how to better accommodate local news. Here are some of the ways showing how mobile technology provides the perfect medium for newspapers to expand their reach and increase revenue:

Four presentations about newspapers using mobile technology to distribute their content were given today at the Digital Media Round Table, one of the first meetings of the 58th annual World Newspaper Congress and the 12th annual World Editors Forum in Seoul, Korea. Park Chang-hee, General Manager of JoongAng Ilbo Strategic Planning, painted a picture of the Korean mobile newspaper market explaining that Korean papers have been evolving with cellular technology. Showing a television advertisement entitled “Sorry Mr. Newspaper” that portrayed a young man happily surfing the internet and checking headlines on his mobile phone while newspapers flew in his front door unnoticed, Mr. Park said that the demand for newspaper journalism will always exist but that newspapers themselves need to be open to new technologies. Mobile technology is simply a means of distributing newspaper content which also provides new options for newspapers such as customizing content to reader preference, he continued. Mr. Park also added that the Korean market is moving towards an Open Mobile Network Policy, a government initiative that would open up the mobile market to organizations other than mobile providers, essentially meaning that newspaper organizations may soon be able to distribute their own mobile news themselves without having to use the mobile service middleman.
