Multimediashooter down for the count

April 3rd, 2008 by Bryan

I didn’t blog about the last time Richard Koci Hernandez’ Multimedia Shooter web site was hacked and taken down. It may have happened again, and this time, it looks like Richard’s throwing in the towel for good.

I’m walking away this time with my head held high. It’s been fun. I’m closing the blog doors for good this time. There’s not enough Jack Daniels or Red Bull to get me back this time. Sorry for on again off again nature of the blog lately.
Thanks for the support through the hacks. This is a great time for me to step away from the blogosphere. Good Night and Good Luck, see you in the real world.

This is sad news, indeed. I was actually using MMS this Tuesday to find some good multimedia to show to my advanced online reporting class. It’s a resource that will be sorely missed. Until Andrew DeVigal’s Interactive Narratives 2.0 is back up and running, it’ll be hit and miss on finding multimedia from around the country and the world.

    I was devastated when I opened up Multimedia Shooter to see Richard was closing the door. His site has been a constant source of inspiration and motivation for me as a college journalist. He’ll be missed.
