I was looking to draw up a list of ten essential books on online journalism - but it seems to me that there are really only six. Have I missed something? Let me know. In the meantime, here are my six essential reads for online journalists:

1. For a different angle on the whole shebang: Gatewatching by Axel Bruns: not the most famous of books - perhaps because it is so far ahead of its time. Gatewatching looks at peer to peer publishing, and non-traditional news organisations: the likes of Slashdot, Kuro5hin, and Wikinews, among others. An essential read for an insight into how news reporting can be organised completely differently. See also: Digitizing the News by Pablo Boczkowski.

2. For an authoritative history: Online News by Stuart Allan: a refreshingly rigorous look at some of the most famous moments in online journalism - Rathergate; 9/11; Drudge. Helps supply the reality behind the mythology. See also: Online Journalism by Jim Hall.

Read the whole list
