Believe me, I am a Web designer. The reason why this page looks so odd is because you're viewing it in a browser that doesn't support Cascading Style Sheet positioning. It doesn't work in particularly old browsers. However, if you scroll down, you'll find all my content. Don't let this site fool you, I've designed plenty of sites that work in older browsers, this was just my first step towards what is the future of Web design.

Citizen journalism: who’s problem?

Tuesday | April 20, 2004 | 1:13 pm  

Over at Small Initiative, Jay’s got a fun little series on The problem with citizen journalism.

Essentially, if you let folks rate/rank stories, sometimes some real stinkers float to the top.

That begs the question, is the problem with the citizens, or the journalism?
