When compare to traditional publishing, online publishing is shining in this age. Through this online publishing, publishers and readers are getting mutual benefits. Publishing through web, RSS, pod cast, mobile, etc… are the new circulation mediums (I heard that these services are providing http://www.pressmart.net for all print publications.).

Couldn’t agree more with how stupid the policies of traditional media companies are. I was in a meeting with someone from our local paper talking about how I link to their articles from my blog and he told me I should get permission to do that. Their site doesn’t even require a subscription and you don’t have to sign in to view the page. The trees are too close to see the forest I’m afraid.

I don’t get the deep linking thing either. Why does Google get a free pass from the TOS?
