The Blogs of War

Watching the Daily Show tonight, guest John Hockenberry was on talking about a piece he wrote for Wired Magazine, called "The Blogs of War". It was really interesting to learn about members of the military using technology on the front lines, to keep in touch and present first hand accounts of what is going on in Iraq. Check out the article and see how Milblogs are keeping people informed.
