The Value to Society of Blogs

"Blogs and other modern media, like Twitter, have democratised information distribution. Rangerstaxcase.com has gone far beyond its half-baked "I know a secret" origins to become a forum for citizen journalism.

All that is required is an issue about which others are passionate and feel unheard."
