History will be written by the net savvy

I continue to be amazed at the uses people keep finding for the Internet. Right now I’m listening to an mp3 stream of live coverage of protests at RNC-NYC put together by anoise.

People call in by cell phone live from rallies to give updates on what’s happening. The show hosts coordinate all the information together to give a bird’s eye view of what’s going on. The segment I’ve been listening to has a lawyer making sure the callers are taking the right legal precautions. The whole thing seems to be put together with commodity technology.
