Well, maybe not quite live... but we are included in the picture with Chris Nuttall's article 'Newsgathering on the Net' which can be found at <http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_150000/150885.stm> Newsgathering on the Net. By Internet Correspondent Chris Nuttall As a foreign correspondent, I was always inspired by the quote that people like us were "writing the first draft of history." Now I am an Internet correspondent, I have been deservedly humbled by the realisation that even the most crafted online pieces really only amount to the first draft of a story. Several examples in the past week show that while the Internet can be the source of unfounded rumours and ill-researched stories, it can also repair any such damage, in the end creating something more solid and substantial than is possible in any other medium. -- Nils Lohner E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux Press Contact Press: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
