Reports of the news out of Pakistan this morning demonstrated an interesting trend in this decade...
Many authors point to the events of September 2001 as the motivation for many to begin blogging. Many who witnessed those events went to the blogosphere to share reactions and thoughts. Since then, user-created content has become a natural part of the web.
This morning's BBC reports of the reaction in New York to the events in Pakistan included the presenters reading Tweets of those who were on the streets in New York as well as the presenter noting the hash tag that was being used to contribute to the on-going online reactions.
