Beanstockd Class Field Trip to NC

Knight 2008 News Challenge Winner

It's the start of the fall semester at UNC and Beanstockd has just taken a trip down to visit the class, present on Beanstockd, and answer all their questions.

Prior to our arrival, the 20 students in the class had already done their preliminary research on us. They were very engaged, asking insightful questions throughout the class, and after our presentation proceeded with a 45-minute Q&A session.

In December, at the end of the semester, we will go back for the most exciting part of this course: the final presentations! Each team of 5 will present to us their step-by-step strategy for reaching our stated objectives, and we will begin the process of integrating and implementing their great ideas into our project.

This issue is more complicated than just newspapers wanting money and people wanting free content. People will pay when given a reason to pay -- as in something valuable and unique
