Ajay, I think this global connections can be useful in allowing us to support each other in our work, as reporters, bloggers, techno-philes, and students.
I think the question I bring to this site is: What is news? Everyone has their own take on that, and sources. I rely on more on my international community of friends than CNN to keep me informed. I often find the mainstream full of nonsense. But is that what people want? If CNN and Google news had made more of an issue about sub-prime lending three years ago would anyone have cared? Or would we have had to wait for a crisis? And now we are limping along, deeply in debt, and most people seem to have forgotten that our economy imploded.
