[Dialogue] News Services and Blogs

[George Holcombe]

For those interested you can get on Alternet by going to http:// 
www.alternet.org/  and sign up for the email newsletter, and/or  
Common Dreams at http://www.commondreams.org/

I'm wondering what blogs and other news services we are finding  
helpful these days in keeping up with the world.  I find http:// 
aljazeera.com/ and http://english.aljazeera.net/English a good  
balance to the US media along with some of the news from BBC and  
various Asian countries.  The RSS feeds are also very helpful where  
available and where you can taylor them to your interests.

Using tabs on my browser I can load up the major news channels from  
around the world and have them waiting every morning, where you can  
do a quick run down on what's being reported, sort of like the front  
end of one of our old news conversation.
