The Amazing Power of the Internet


These links demonstrate how powerful a communication medium the Internet has become. Within hours of the London bomb attacks, these sites have been constantly updated with all sorts of information.

Sometimes, it really makes me wonder, will the Internet marginalize the International News agencies, just like what it is currently doing to the sales of printed newspapers?

Somehow, I have a strong feeling it will.

My thoughts and prayers to all those affected by this horrible tragedy.
