« My Twitterville Worksheet | Main November 28, 2008 Mumbai, Twitter, Hatred & Gandhi For much of the past two days I have watched with horror and sorrow as events unfolded in Mumbai. Mostly I have watched through Twitter. Some of what I have seen at #mumbai--where 10s of thousands of posts from people all over the world have gone up in a realtime river of information and opinion. For the most part, what I have read there has reconfirmed my belief that the worst of times brings out the best in most people. All over the world people are contributing thoughts of outrage and compassion. On the ground, Tweeters in Mumbai have contributed some real time valuable and accurate information. But there are not that many citizen-journalists and the traditional media has been uneven in the quality and responsibility of their coverage.
