Jon Katz has an interesting discussion on Slashdot called The Dark Side of "Me Media", in which he discusses republic.com, a new book by Constitutional scholar Cass Sunstein. It's interesting: moderating "systems" (which involve varying degrees of automation) do provide some relief in the war of signal versus noise on the web -- looks like Sunstein is meditating on the broader implications.

Sorry I'm doing nothing but linking to other people's thoughts today...
