Blogs: Halting the March of Mainstream Media
http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/features/story.jsp?story=561871

A revolution is sweeping the American media that will eventually spread to this part of the world. What is happening is that for the first time in decades, if not ever, the power of the mainstream media (MSM) in the United States is being seriously challenged by a mostly ragtag army of outsiders armed with little more than the Internet. The age of the blogger is upon us. A blogger is someone who keeps a
web-log, updated on an almost daily basis. They offer blow-by-blow commentary on current events. They can do so at almost no cost and their sites can be accessed by anyone with an Internet connection anywhere in the world. Basically the Internet has eliminated the cost of entry into the world of media and commentary at a stroke. Last week we had a clear demonstration of blogger power.

Blogs are beginning to be felt all over the world and the Internet is starting to become interactive ... what Sir. Tim Berners-Lee always wanted ...... we are living in truly exciting times!!!!
