Not sure how I feel about the decision by the Christian Science Monitor http://www.forbes.com/media/2008/10/28/newspapers-christian-science-monitor-biz-media-cx_jea_1028monitor.html?partner=media_newsletter">to end their print edition. Growing up, newspapers were instrumental in letting the outside world into my life. I can't imagine that not being able to happen for someone else now.
The digital divide isn't a cliche, it's a real problem and making something as valuable as the information the CS Monitor provides only available to those with computer access can really hurt those who are already hurting. So, I get it CS, but it still hurts a bit.
