a collection of feeds from other places I write (with a few other thoughts tossed in for good measure) about me Dan Sinker teaches in the journalism department at Columbia College Chicago where he focuses on entrepreneurial journalism and the mobile web. He is the creator of the mobile storytelling initiative CellStories and was the founding editor of the influential underground culture magazine Punk Planet until its closure in 2007. He is the editor of We Owe You Nothing: Punk Planet, the collected interviews and was a 2007-08 Knight Fellow at Stanford University. He currently blogs about media for the Huffington Post. Because the internet is infinitely large and allows you to do all sorts of things beyond what’s listed in this bio, all of his various activities on the internet are collected and presented on this site.
