Working on a post for the agency blog that lists the major sports blogs setting up separate hubs for Olympic content - like what Yahoo! Sports is doing with Fourth Place Medal.

Here's a brief conversation I had with A.J. Daulerio, Editor of Deadspin, on this...

ME: Wanted to reach out and inquire as to whether you'll be setting up a Deadspin Vancouver Bureau (a la the Beijing Bureau).

AJ: Do you know any weed dealers? We're looking for weed dealers.

ME: HA! If you're you're having trouble finding them (in Vancouver), you're not trying hard enough.

AJ: Hey, we're not out there, man! If you have some ears to the ground then let us know! We want a first-hand report from the weed dealers.

Oh, those crazy British Columbians and their rarely paralleled love of marijuana.

If anyone knows of or is involved in the Vancouver coverage for a sports blog, hit me up. Or if, quote, you're "those guys hooking up the snowboarders or ice dancers or whomever with their stash." Email A.J. directly.

I misuse semicolons all the time, and would like to not do that anymore; I'm a loathsome grammar nerd. (Was that ok?)

Mashable predicted story-streaming would be one of the 10 News Media Content Trends to Watch in 2010, and over the past week - under far less than ideal circumstances - we have seen a credible example of this - haitiquake.posterous.com.

The good people at Voice Project and Oxfam International, a non-governmental agency fighting poverty, started this Posterous right after the earthquake hit to provide the, as their tagline denotes, "Latest updates from those responding to the Haiti quake."

Thus far, Haiti Quake Updates have run the gamet, providing video, tweets, audio clips, articles from outlets like Paidcontent.org and The Guardian, and a healthy dose of content across all medians from Oxfam  - no surprise since Louis Belanger, Humanitarian Media Officer with Oxfam, appears to be the one steering the ship with the site. Belanger is among the 200 Oxfam staffers on the ground in Haiti at this time. He's also been phlogging via Haiti, and has posted four phonecasts thus far on his own Posterous.

Voice Project's mission according to their Twitter profile is "to connect bloggers with important political events and gives them unprecedented access to policymakers and world leaders." To provide a quick barometer of this, so far with Haiti Quake Updates, the linking has been pervasive within and outside the Posterous community (hit the links to see the search results).

Go here to subscribe to Haiti Quake Updates on Posterous. Send me any other quality examples of story-streams via email or Twitter.
