Witness is one of the fundamental categories of experience:
Witness in history. The role of witness in ancient spiritual
communities. Witness and prophets. Witness in crisis. Witness in
everyday life.
Blogs are about witness. We witness and we discuss what we
witness. We point to others who are witnessing to subjects we
think bear wider note.
The complaint that bloggers and citizens have with mainline media is
that it does not witness in a responsible manner. It does not witness
with the care that we think should accompany its influence in society.
How can we better witness? How can we establish improved networks of
witness? What services and technologies can we create to augment
our witnessing?
