The internet provides an interesting combination of both distribution
channel and reception channel.  Leads, press releases, and "letters
to the editor" can be received very easily.  Even artwork may come
via the net.

The editorial work will be in maintaining the quality of input, and
finding sources that are interesting, different, and unique.  Think
of it as "talk radio" for the 21st century.  Guiding threads,
filtering the flames (or fanning them), and culling backup information.
These will be the pioneering work of the
electronic editor.  Also important will be making the search results interesting.
