First: the SF Chronicle is doing an odd, interesting thing: posting a blog of little "remembrances" of staffers who have lost their jobs at the downsized paper. You can scroll through them here. From a media relations standpoint, these may be of limited use to you if the journalist is no longer working (many have found other writing-related ventures, not all are mentioned in the blog), but if you are at all interested in understanding the media mindset, these are very interesting and enlightening to read. PS -- I hate the title of this blog: "Colleagues Remembered." Makes it sound like they are dead.
Second: got the last issue of Business 2.0 in the mail yesterday with the cover below. As noted in the issue and in stories about the demise of the magazine, several staffers were offered jobs at a newly beefed up Fortune technology bureau in SF, including Josh Quittner, Phil Elmer-Dewitt, Paul Sloan, and Michael Copeland, according to this very interesting interview with Quittner.
