One minor correction, though: When Keith Hopper created NPRbackstory, he did it while employed by Public Interactive, which was then acquired by NPR. So he was already at PI when he built it; it’s just that PI’s ownership has changed.

Public Interactive is somewhat different than NPR digital media – they operate independently and concentrate on building tools and services for NPR member stations at the local level, while NPR digital media, manages NPR’s national activities, such as NPR.org, the API, our social media activities, etc.
