Letter from the Editor

Welcome to May 2007 (Volume 1: Issue 5) of Youth Media Reporter (YMR).

This month showcases ways youth media professionals can use blogs, virtual communities, and Second Life, as well as revenue-based models from the field.

The articles in this issue covers:

• A funder’s perspective on revenue-based models to and from the field;
• Global Kid’s (a youth media organization) tips using Second Life;
• How professionals in the field can utilize blogs from the founder of What’s Good For Girls;
• An interview with a founding member of BLOC, Future 5000, and MyBloc.net
