"Now he who controls distribution no longer controls news."

So says Jeff Jarvis, of The Times-Picayune, that brave New Orleans newspaper that refused to stop churning out reports despite losing their printing press during Hurricane Katrina's onslaught. Read his piece at the digital version of The Guardian, reborn as a tabloid. This digital version (as opposed to Guardian unlimited), may I add, is available for free only for a short while. So hurry!

Back to what I was trying to figure out - yes, we do know that blogs are changing the business of delivering news, but we do not yet know how it is going to affect the lives of we, who work for the media. Insights, anyone?
