    Dear Andrew,

    Working at the Center for Social Media, we research innovations in the field of public media 2.0 (futureofpublicmedia.net) and are featuring spot.us this month as a leader in this field.

    During this research I saw your pitch and was excited and interested in it. As a graduate student in the field of conflict resolution, I am increasingly fascinated by the intersects of healing/conflict resolution and the arts.

     I'll RSS your blog and I look forward to what you come up with.

    Cheers,

    Micael Bogar

    "NewzPool.com has purchased the publication rights to the story."
     

    I think this is a very good sign... members of spot.us can insure a story gets made by putting up their own money. If the story rights are purchased, it's a vindication of the pitch and the member's backing.

    The reporter goes to work and the donors get to choose again.
