"Technology is constantly changing the way we define and consume media in our daily lives. It's advancing the relationship between news organizations and their communities, reinvigorating advertising and creating new business models.\nWhen it comes to the future of media, the possibilities are endless and a number of questions arise: How will we consume news and information? Can media companies be sustained? Is print truly dead? \nThese questions and more will be addressed at the Mashable Media Summit in New York City next week, and we want Mashable readers throughout the world to be a part of the conversation. We're thrilled to invite you to organize or attend a post-Media Summit breakdown to discuss the lessons learned about the future of media.\nThe Mashable Media Summit Meetup will take place on Nov. 16, about two weeks after the Mashable Media Summit itself.
