Search
for TV news clips and other video bits from more than two dozen sources,
including ABC News, BBC News, Fox News, ESPN and C-Span. There's plenty of
lighter fare, too—a search for Nicole Kidman pulled up a documentary clip from
Biography.com and assorted movie reviews and trailers. Blinkx has its own way of
indexing clips that makes it more effective than other video search engines for
finding particular segments within a broadcast, and each video stream starts off
at the point in the segment that's most relevant to your query.
OhMyNews International
english.ohmynews.com
This English-language version of the
Korea-based "open-source" news organization invites readers to become "citizen
reporters" and contribute their own news stories, opinion pieces and photo
essays. ("Say bye-bye to the backwards newspaper culture of the 20th Century,"
beckons the membership registration page.) Use the Talk Back forum to upload.
Public Agenda
www.publicagenda.org
Public Agenda is a nonpartisan,
nonprofit organization that conducts public opinion surveys on a variety of
hot-button issues, interprets mainstream views and then compares them with the
political rhetoric on the right and the left. The site's Issue Guides cover
dozens of topics, from abortion to immigration to the right to die.
