I saw an article today in the Toronto Star - one of many similar articles from mainstream media - asserting that today's bloggers do nothing more than rehash stories found in the mainstream media. Well I read enough blogs to know that this is false. But how to show it? Well, maybe this: Daypop is a service that lists the top linked items in the blogging community (click on 'Top 40' for example). While you do indeed see items from the mainstream media a good half of the items listed are from private websites, corporate pages, special interest groups, or original entries in other weblogs.
