Some links to look at

Here are a few sites I'd like you to look at today. I'm not going to say anything about them here. During the session, I'll put you into groups and get each group to focus on a couple of sites.

Try to figure out what each site is about, who it's aimed at and what kind of use it's making of the web. Is the site you're looking at delivering the news in a new kind of way? In what way is it journalism?
