Ah Slashdot the only news source you need.
Ok so most of the people who would read this blood would also read slashdot already. If you don't read slash dot then go HERE. It has all the realy important information like who was responsible for the sony rootkit and when will the next major processor com out and how will it work.
Specifically there is a great article today about how gamers make better dirivers cause we can multi task better. After all when you have to race and target enemy cars will massive ordinance you get good as splitting your focus.
The net is full of interesting news sources. I check The CBC every morning for good old Canadian news and The Onion has been my comedy staple for years. I think the Internet is a great source of news for several reasons. Number one being that it does not bow down to government pressure or cooperate sponsorship. The news on TV or even in papers is trying to make a profit so I never really rust it's end goals. You just have to look at Conrad Black to see the state of some of our media sources today. Now im not saying you can trust all of the Internet news sources. The good and bad thing about the net is that it has no checks and balances. People can say anything they want truthfull or not. But if you read many different sources i think you can get a better idea of what the truth might be than just flipping channels on the 6:00 news.
Now you may notice an inconsistency in my last statement. I denounce the TV news but read CBC on line. It truth i find CBC one of the better news sources and if i do tune in that is generally where i go. but this leads to the second point of why i perver net news. I can read what i want and what interest me. Slash dot is a perfect example. The types of articles it releases are almost never seen in standard news sources. Where is the techie news, or treky news or gamers news. You have to get monthly subscriptions to speciality mags to see any of it easily. On the net i can go to the information i want whenever i want. unrestricted my schedules or popularity.
Please post a comment if you have any good net news sources. I am interested in what people others read every day, and always trying to find good sources.
