As New Media pioneers, the issu es, challenges, revenue opportunities and business models facing these influencers and enablers are equally unique. Previously the exclusive domain of glossy magazines, newspaper Features sections, PBS and terrestrial television, the changes in the Lifestyle media segment are simply revolutionary.

- Can newspapers' Features & magazines' websites successfully partner with online content providers other than Reuters and AP?
- What are the latest options for cooking videos, and what do you do with them after YouTube?

 ed yet?

- How do I become the next TMZ or Celeb.tv?

- Is there a future on television, can New Media and Local Stations coexist, and what is cable's Video on Demand strategic direction?
- Will online restaurant guides and reviews survive in print?
- Who is leading in mobile content, and how do I get on board with them?
- Why does it seem like Green New Media sites get more Venture Capital than other lifestyle categories?

The NEW MEDIA TASTEMAKERS SUMMIT was created because no other technology or industry conference or summit specifically focuses on the culture-shaping Lifestyle categories of New Media, nor their influence, creativity, profitability, dynamics, new players, innovations, and future.
