Journalism is fully knitted into the web of information that exists in the world today. It links to it; sifts and filters it;
collaborates with it and generally uses the ability of anyone to publish and share material to give a better account of the world. Rather than considering open journalism a mode of journalism or as a type of journalism, we consider open journalism a system, or a form of the organization including different forms of journalism that are often produced by a third party.
