New Media Landscape

When I was in school, events like the recent disaster in Japan were available on the news, and we had our choice of three outlets: CBS, NBC, and ABC. Now there is an unimaginable collection of choices. More interesting and more useful for school audiences, I believe, are options such as the "before-and-after" slide shows such as the one that appeared on the Huffington Post.

I recall seeing similar slide shows after the 2004 tsunami in the Indian Ocean.
