on the weblogs-as-journalism question, a study on the subject has finally been published. The good folks at the Shorenstein Center at the Kennedy School of Government have published a case study about the Trent Lott affair.

John Battelle, who knows a lot more about this stuff than I do, has posted an entry about the reaction to the news about the CAP at Yahoo: Initial Resistance to Yahoo’s CAP and more. Good stuff there – basically in line with my comments, but in a bit more detail.
Stewart Butterfield,
Ben Cerveny, and Eric Costello: Transcendent Interactions. Ludicorp’s Presentation at the O’Reilly Emerging Technology Conference. Important stuff in here.

David Brooks,
New York Times columnist, is simply amazing. In his column today, he argues (with a straight face, I presume) that poor people didn’t get that way due to a lack of access to resources, and furthermore that the main problem is cultural, not economic. In other words, they deserve it. I guess it’s not that amazing, really – it’s really just another repetition of the common conservative theme that people are evil and must be forced, by their betters, to become virtuous. At least he doesn’t bring god into the whole thing like 90% of his American colleagues.
