"As it turns out, we have a way to prevent gangs of humans from acting like savage packs of animals. In fact, we've developed entire disciplines based around this goal over thousands of years. We just ignore most of the lessons that have been learned when we create our communities online. But, by simply learning from disciplines like urban planning, zoning regulations, crowd control, effective and humane policing, and the simple practices it takes to stage an effective public event, we can come up with a set of principles to prevent the overwhelming majority of the worst behaviors on the Internet.

If you run a website, you need to follow these steps. if you don't, you're making the web, and the world, a worse place. And it's your fault. Put another way, take some goddamn responsibility for what you unleash on the world."

The Financial Times has had to commandeer Gideon Rachman's blog to keep up, while the styles vary from the quickfire updates of the BBC (complete with BBC News broadcast feed), to the tight and factual Daily Telegraph technique, to a slightly more expansive approach from the Guardian."

"The sale of The Huffington Post to America Online for $315 million has prompted another flurry of journalist hand wringing about people who write for no pay. Journalists need to step outside their fear that their steady, white collar paychecks are disappearing, get practical about what volunteers can and cannot contribute, and figure out how journalists add value in the new mix.
