  CBC 61:"I'm from CBCunlocked"

Did my first photo assignment for CBCunlocked this afternoon, a joint news conference by families whose relatives were killed in the Air India bombing and the September 11 attack, called "Memorials are not enough." Watch for the report and pix in Thursday's radio and online editions.

I walked into the building, the PR woman asked me what media I was with. "I'm from CBCunlocked," I replied. Without blinking an eye she sent me upstairs to the pre-newser reception.

That's what I am also hearing from other folks who are out in the field working on stories. People are glad to see us back on the streets--and I don't mean Front and John (or the front of buildings elsewhere across the country).

Senior management may have locked us out, CBCunlocked may be taking a few baby steps, but we are on our way.....

It was a busy day, two photo assignments for CBCunlocked and my usual snap the picket line duties, so I will continue my intelligence blogging on Thursday.

I write in a renovated garret in my house in a part of Toronto, Canada, called "The Pocket." The blog is named for a tree can be seen outside the window of my garret.

My Photo
Name: Robin Rowland
Location: Toronto, Canada

I'm a Toronto-based writer, photographer, web producer, television producer, journalist and teacher. I'm author of five books, the latest A River Kwai Story: The Sonkrai Tribunal. The Garret tree is my blog on the writing life including my progress on my next book (which will be announced here some time in the coming months) My second blog, the Wampo, Nieke and Sonkrai follows the slow progress of my freelanced model railway based on my research on the Burma Thailand Railway (which is why it isn't updated that often) The Creative Guide to Research, based on my book published in 2000 is basically an archive of news, information and hints for both the online and the shoe-leather" researcher. (Google has taken over everything but there are still good hints there)
