080520091344Last Friday I attended Jeecamp – the Journalism Enterprise and Entrepreneurship Unconference -  in Birmingham. The event, organised by Paul Bradshaw from Birmingham City's School of Media, brought together journalists, editors, academics and entrepreneurs for a day of interesting discussion.

For more coverage of the event, see Michael Haddon's posts for the Telegraph or Martin Belam's PDA Newsbucket piece on the Guardian website.
