Knowledge, Learning, Community
A lot of people, when they compare blogs (and personal publishing in general), tend to compare on a one-to-one basis: how a given blog compares to a given newspaper, how a given blog compares to a course or program. This article shows nicely the effect of the blogosphere taken as a whole, not as one of its parts. And when you look at it as a whole, the picture changes dramatically. The blogosphere is more responsive, more creative, more varied, more inclusive, and ultimately, more accountable. This, now, is the standard to which both journalism and learning must look to, must look up to.
