Amateur Newsies Top the Pros - Like most people I was at work and had trouble getting any real info immediately after the WTC crashes. CNN and MSNBC were completely inaccessible.
Slashdot was a great resource for finding the smaller personal websites, people with almost real-time weblogs and web cams. Granted the Internet slowed down but it performed beautifully in disseminating the facts and pictures of the events.

Kate's brother
Brad sent her
this link to DaveNet. It's from an Afghani-American by the name of
Mir Tamim Ansary. (Dave Winer is the creator of
Userland and a pioneer in the weblog / personal publishing area. His
Scripting News is one of my favorite sites with lots of links on the recent events.)
But the Taliban and Ben Laden are not Afghanistan. They're not even the government of Afghanistan. The Taliban are a cult of ignorant psychotics who took over Afghanistan in 1997. Bin Laden is a political criminal with a plan. When you think Taliban, think Nazis. When you think Bin Laden, think Hitler. And when you think "the people of Afghanistan" think "the Jews in the concentration camps." It's not only that the Afghan people had nothing to do with this atrocity. They were the first victims of the perpetrators. They would exult if someone would come in there, take out the Taliban and clear out the rats nest of international thugs holed up in their country.

Little Big Science -
If Einstein were a graduate student today probing for a career path, a doctoral adviser would enjoin him to think small: "Nanotech, Albert, nanotech" would be the message conveyed.
