- Top 1000 Public schools: Newsweek misses an opportunity
- The magazine released its list of the Top 1,000 Public Schools in America. The complete list is available online.

- Wikinews: Participatory journalism from the folks behind Wikipedia
- Via C Net news → Wired: The folks behind Wikipedia launch Wikinews, an effort to get citizen journalists to cover the news. I think this is a great idea, but I wonder if Wikinews can become a credible source of news on a national and international level.
