"The Platform: Harry Evans, Ace Newsman"
EVANS' wife, Tina BROWN, was part of the Monaco Media Forum last year. There is a lot in this column by Peter OSNOS that is worth considering in conjunction with this year's event. No doubt there is far more in the EVANS book itself.

"GlobalPost generating revenue of $1 million in first year" - Nieman Journalism Lab
One of the people funding this is going to be attending this year's Monaco Media Forum.
Only time will tell if rosy expectations become a successful business. I would not invest based on what I've seen so far......but maybe we'll learn more next week!

"Monaco Telecom : 15 000 km de câble sous les mers !" - nicematin.com
This is a story in French in today's Nice Matin newspaper that covers Monaco. The article recounts the connection that Monaco is in the process of making, through an undersea cable now being laid to connect itself to even faster transmission lines, through a link to India. Expected speed of the connection - 3.84 TerraBit/s.

"With the Afghan War Heating Up, Coverage Grows" - NYTimes.com
This raises a huge number of media, technology and journalism questions all appropriate for discussion in an international forum like the Monaco Media Forum.
"Foursquare, a Social Network Site, Puts Users Face to Face" - NYTimes.com
What a great opportunity. Everyone attending the Monaco Media Forum this year can join this and send a message that they are in Monaco; come join us!

"Media Cache - France Moves to Win Back Control of Content" - NYTimes.com
This would make for a great debate at the Monaco Media Forum.
"Microsoft’s Future, Beyond Windows 7 and the PC" - NYTimes.com
Several Microsoft people will be attending this year's Monaco Media Forum.
"Off the Shelf - ‘The Curse of the Mogul’ - A Look at Media Empires" - NYTimes.com
Having heard only an interview with one of the authors, this book seems to me to be prime reading material for the Monaco Media Forum this year. Are media moguls worth what they think they are?
"Held by the Taliban - A Times Reporter’s Account. A Five-Part Series by David Rohde" - Series - NYTimes.com
I sure hope - in the midst of bits, bytes and widgets - that this kind of media subject comes up at the Monaco Media Forum - journalism, and where it sits vis a vis all of the technological wonders and wunderkind likely to be on display next month.
"After NY's Princess Grace Awards, The Icon Is Honored Locally" - Canyon News
Although this is not precisely in the media field, it is part of the larger Monaco picture of media and entertainment.

"Peace and Sport: Berlin moment captures Image of the Year Award" - Sports Features Communications

"How The Huffington Post uses real-time testing to write better headlines" - Nieman Journalism Lab
Why don't they just let readers write the lede (first sentence) of the stories, too? Or allow readers to pick what subjects ought to be covered? Or which facts included or omitted?
Arianna HUFFINGTON and Eric HIPPEAU may get some questions on this at the Monaco Media Forum.

Here's another that I hope will come up during the Monaco Media Forum this year.

Princess Grace's 80th birthday would have been on the second day of this year's Monaco Media Forum. I hope this will be noted.
