Judging for the 27th annual Best of Newspaper Design Creative Competition will be Feb. 11-20 at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications in Syracuse, N.Y.
SND.org will be your source for live news from the judging.
Here's a look at some things we are working on for the coverage.
Nothing is official – we're still ironing out details on all of this – but the goal is to add new things this year.
• Live, streaming video from the ballroom. There would be no audio, but users might be able to direct the camera online to some extent. The university currently runs a live campus cam here.
• A blog, much like the popular SND Houston blog.
• News articles and interviews where possible.
• Quicktime video that you can download.
• An announcement of the World's Best winners once the judging is complete on Monday, Feb. 20.
• An announcement of Gold Winners and Best of Show winners shortly after the competition judging and data entry is complete. Sorry, we can't set a firm date on this.
• Bad karaoke photos.
All of these ideas are ambitious and may only come to fruition in future years.
The most important thing, of course, is running a smooth competition, which is job No. 1.
Personally, I'd like to see good photos of bad karaoke, but I'll take what I can get, I suppose.
And don't forget this weekend's Flash Quick Course in Chapel Hill, N.C. If you're attending and have handouts and/or links send 'em my way and I'll post 'em. In case you missed this one, there's another in February at Ball State.
