The annual Online News Association (ONA) Conference, taking place September 11 to 13, is welcoming 750 journalists from around the world to Washington, D.C., to discuss news and technology, and how the two will fit together to form the future of journalism.

For those who are unable to attend, ONA is making the conference available via the Internet. In a podcast, ONA co-chair and IJNet digital media consultant Amy Webb called the conference the "most connected" ONA conference ever. Visitors to the ONA conference page will find (literally) up-to-the-minute coverage of all conference happenings through blogs, podcats, Twitter feeds, video, and more.
