Knowledge, Learning, Community
A writer on the Second Life Educator's mailing list pointed to this site. The article he wrote has long since cycled off the home page, but the site is worthy of a look in its own right. It should be widely noted as a phenomenon shortly. "Welcome to a brand new beta site for uncensored, user-powered news. CNN built the tools, you take it from there. All the stories here are user-generated and instant: CNN does not vet or verify their authenticity or accuracy before they post. The ones with the "On CNN" stamp have been vetted and used in CNN news coverage." This, my friends, is the future of news. It is also the future of learning.
