email interviews are fine, and actually more true to our nature :)

Hi all,
Thanks for the information about the SF Weekly story, Cary. Do you think that they would be willing to do email interviews, or are they looking for in-person? In-person would be tough for me.
I think we should get a friendly coast-to-coast competition going with Boston re: whose free paper can produce a better Wikipedia story (http://new.thephoenix.com/article_ektid52864.aspx) :)
To everyone: welcome to this new list! I hope we can make good use of it. Please encourage other Wiki/m/pedians in the area to subscribe.
cheers, phoebe

I suspect they'll want to do an 'on the ground' sort of thing at some point, but we can always let them work their way towards that, get some good email invus first, then build up for more questions or explore story angles with those who might be more readily available in person.

I just got off the phone with the reporter, she seems to be in background, "figure out how it works" mode right now. It was a good conversation.
