"Are citizen journalists and bloggers 'real journalists'?"

Ground Report Founder and CEO Rachel Sterne talks citizen journalism and an interesting question arises: in our evolving journalism landscape, can sites such as hers serve as early warning systems to mainstream media organizations?

A meta-web is forming that connects the bits and bytes of our online social actions in new and startling ways.

When we choose the code that runs our computers, web sites, gadgets and phones, one of the last things we think about is the environmental impact of that decision. But in a world where changes in Facebook's underlying code base could reduce their carbon emissions by 49,000 tons, it's about time we do so.

Software is provocative art and our code slingers are poets to the highest degree. Join them as a team and you get jazz.
