On the whole citizen journalism front... Have you heard radio 4's pieces on the nhs this week? Do you think that is the middle line between journalism and blogging? On another note, I found the discussion really interesting. I keep a journal, and was wondering whether to start a blog, but it seems that all the things you advise against in blogging (moaning about friends, colleagues, and my partner's job) is exactly why i keep a journal. I'm not sure I could come up with material that wouldn't incriminate me.......
