[[!template new="1" text="""So what is best when you're thinking about your own workflow""" start="00:01:52.160" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and some things to think about journalism""" start="00:01:56.800" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and about using these kinds of tools""" start="00:01:59.200" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""in combination for this? So where do we all start?""" start="00:02:03.200" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Let's start with a simple-ish definition""" start="00:02:09.480" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""of what is a workflow. A workflow is""" start="00:02:11.560" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""any sequence of actions or tools you use to accomplish that.""" start="00:02:14.960" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""So it doesn't have to be through text processing,""" start="00:02:18.360" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""though obviously being a text-oriented community,""" start="00:02:23.200" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""it will most likely be partially text.""" start="00:02:27.760" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""But it's just about how we accomplish a task""" start="00:02:31.440" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and which tools and mindsets we go into it with.""" start="00:02:35.000" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""the terribly buggy interface, and I hate it.""" start="00:03:03.280" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""So there are certain tools that you have to use""" start="00:03:06.760" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and you have to modify your workflow""" start="00:03:09.120" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""or just adapt your workflow to the tools""" start="00:03:11.360" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""that you have to use. So for me, unfortunately,""" start="00:03:13.840" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""that means having to use WeChat. You compartmentalize it""" start="00:03:17.120" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and set it aside, try not to think about it too hard.""" start="00:03:23.400" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""And this is the part that hurts the most, right?""" start="00:03:27.480" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""You're thinking about your workflow,""" start="00:03:29.320" video="mainVideo-journalism" id="subtitle"]]
