I believe reader contributed content has a lot of potential, especially once it gets off the ground, and the sabatours are weeded out. It provides a kind of pulse on what people are concerned about on any given day. The format here is nice because it lets the people decide on the quality of a piece, based on the writing itself, not the ideology.This is where the internet is succeeding, by letting people have direct input into the organization they seek and use to get information. The passiveness of television is a thing of the past. This interaction is also better for buildi9ng brain power. Anyone can sit somewhere and be a TV antenae, but this actually requires a little critical thinking. The only danger lies in the powers that be trying to regulate through capitalistic means (regulate to get a piece of the consumer pie) or moralistically( we all know how that works out) The internet must remain free and clear from all molestation and infection of these forces. This is truly power for the people, so everyone fight any attempt to change this. We are all adults, and i for one, don't need any other adult deciding for me what is and isnt appropriate, and the minute you start pricing time on the net, this immediatly destroys the equality of service, whichwill lead to only the rich , and groups of people with an agenda, will but up all the time slots, and poof, end of freedom, end of everything.. The internet will turn into one big cesspool of lobbyists and wackos , like one big lo0ng presidential campaign that never ends.
