Rupe : "There are millions and millions of new writers on the Internet, mainly writing rubbish, but a lot are writing words of wisdom."
Rupert Murdoch on his worldwind Aussie tour has already ticked a celebrity wedding, offsided Islamic Aussies, and been named most influential Aussie ever by a Packer publication. He is pretty circumspect that news "may not be delivered on destroyed trees." His other great soundbite from the Herald Sun yesterday was :
"There are millions and millions of new writers on the Internet, mainly writing rubbish, but a lot are writing words of wisdom. As you find your way around it, it is a magnificent thing to see." I wonder when Rupert wil have a MySpace page if he doesnt already....
A Wired piece Switters sent me also has the Hep Cat talking the language of UCG : “To find something comparable, you have to go back 500 years to the printing press, the birth of mass media – which, incidentally, is what really destroyed the old world of kings and aristocracies. Technology is shifting power away from the editors, the publishers, the establishment, the media elite. Now it’s the people who are taking control."

One man's trash is another's treasure!
There is no doubt of the rubbish, but the good is worth the trawl.
I have tried it myself and so have respect even for those who not do it so well.
