Mindy McAdams has a great post today about the types of online training that newsrooms should get for people in different positions.

You need to get audio equipment and Soundslides for your photographers.

You need to train the reporters in how to shoot video and WHAT to shoot -- if you're giving them cameras.

You need to fix your pathetic content management system so that your online people can do nice work for your Web site instead of spending hours cleaning up the mess made by the lousy CMS.
