<br><br><br>Sorry, I wasnt as clear as I could have been.... I'll chalk it up to my<br>health<br><br> The original IndyMedia sites were early or pre-blog era ... and pushed<br>the boundaries.<br><br> A number of the IndyMedia sites are looking to similarly push their
<br>platforms to the next level of utility .... (that was the<br>next-generation point - next generation for them)<br><br> Their organization, is as you mention, very flat ... they are a<br>network, and that is very intentional. They are already next generaion
<br>in that regard :)<br><br><br> So, now, we have to think what it means to partner with networks ...<br>in some cases it just means individual actions... I post to the local<br>indymedia sites when I get a chance ... and I recommend you all do the
