First of all, steve's right.. that is cool. But also, you're right regarding this piece. I kept waiting for the shoe to fall and it never did. Omidyar has not said much about what it is they are doing. Here is his statement, direct from his site, it's pretty vague but also pretty exciting. In an age when most media sources are also running pieces titled, "Top 10 ways to..." it will be nice to have one dedicated to investigative journalism and without the overarching need for $$. Could it be that NSFWCorp doesn't want the competition? As for the attempts at discrediting The Omidyar groups philanthropic efforts, they're grasping at straws. But whether you praise this announcement or demonize it, all we really have are "straws" thus far. But, given the people dolling out those straws, I'd say the announcement is at the least interesting and at best very encouraging.
