While browsing news ads today I found myself increasingly annoyed by the inability to comment.  I attribute this to the free voice we have in the blogging world.  Our ability to respond and be heard is valuable.  Some news articles have a comment area, many do not, I find this very frustrating.

The NY Times publisher,  Arthur Sulzberger, announced today that he doesn't know if the paper will be in print 5 years from now.  He further went on to state that the paper has already begun to shift to the Internet. 

Mr Sulzberger goes on to say that the NY Times Internet service will not be free.  I find that amazing.  In an innovative Internet society with so many free news sites and feeds, why would anybody pay for that service?  Five years is a long time, there will be many sites expanding their free services, increasing the variety of information provided and building their subscribers.

"We are curators, curators of news. People don't click onto the New York Times to read blogs. They want reliable news that they can trust," he says."

Do you really think it is not possible to find reliable news for free?  I cannot imagine anybody paying for news service or feeds five years from now, we can already access this information through feeds for free.  I can only imagine the innovations in the tech world in the next five years. 

Do you remember when Trans World Airlines (TWA) and Pan American Airlines (Pan Am) owned the skies?  Do you remember a huge computer company called Wang? 

Did you notice who Time Magazine chose as "Time's Person of the Year"? My favorite quote from that article is:

"It's about the many wresting power from the few and helping one another for nothing and how that will not only change the world, but also change the way the world changes."

Wake up and smell the coffee Mr Sulzberger.
