So, what do you think is harder? The technology problems or the societal shortcomings? As much as journalism sounds like a good idea in high school, I feel like there are basic problems that schools need to focus on first so more students can participate... Maybe it's bad for me to ask which problem is 'worse' and instead look for common solutions? I wonder how new technologies are going to come into play... better voice recognition, video recognition/search, wimax, cloud computing - just a few things that come to mind. and... IT is high pay and low stress??? I'm not so sure about the low stress... ;-) Even with/without all the bells and whistles, I guess a good story is still a good story. And finding people who care about that seems to get easier everyday! Hey Brian!
