Alison Gow has posted a great [lifecycle of a news story](http://headlinesanddedlines.blogspot.com/2008/09/lifecycle-of-news-story.html) over on her blog, [Headlines & Deadlines](http://headlinesanddedlines.blogspot.com/). In particular, I just love the way she’s split the process into the Web 1.0 and Web 2.0 ways of doing things. It’s an astute decision. Most titles went online in some form years ago, and it’s getting people’s heads around the idea that the web evolves and the processes needed to support it need to change to that’s so tricky right now.Alison’s post is essential reading for any journalist working on the web right now.
