Oliver Willis is a guy who I consistantly agree with. He walks a fine line here. One which I wish I could write about anywhere near as eloquently as he does. People on the left and people on the right will disagree with him. I can relate.
Ken Layne’s is a must read.
Doc Searls hits all the right notes. He even mentions the fantastic job Howard Stern and his crew did today and last year on this date. I listened all morning.
Meryl shares her recollection of the day and points us to Perfect Morning.
Garret gives us a great riff on “In Flanders Fields” and something to hold in your heart – “Honor Them wiht Peace, Not War”.
Craig amplifies Garret’s thoughts with some quotes and lyrics.
Alwin concludes differently with a Seven Samauri reference. A movie I gotta see someday. Big influence on George Lucas. The conclusion? “Honor Them with War, Not Peace.”
Mike Sanders asks some tough questions. Doesn’t peace begin with saving lives? That one question, which he has as a sub-question – is the answer to the rest I think.
Robyn doesn’t post today, but what she did post is beautiful.
Mark gives us his bottom line, while sharing a whole lot more about his life in relationship to that day.
Thomas Friedman’s Noah and 9/11 is a must read as well. The title is a trick. Go read it.
Jeff Jarvis is at memorial services in NY today and posts his thoughts.
Compare our reaction to 9.11 with that of Pearl Harbor. Reflect on how it is different. Good and bad.
Robert Wright’s series in Slate gets you thinking about the big picture.
Dave Barry’s heavily linked piece is another must read.
All Grief is Local, or so says Patrick Nielsen Hayden. I tried to say this a few days back. Again eloquence.
remember.yahoo.com is a powerful memorial of virtual tiles.
Belief.net’s multifaith site shares thoughts and prayers.
MetaFilter’s thread from last year gives you a minute by minute account by users.
Yahoo!’s portal is still probably the best place to stay informed of the news.
Terrorism: Questions & Answers, from the Council on Foreign Relations, is a plain spoken site for a plain spoken guy. A great site for background information. Wonderful site design too. Easy to read and understand. This is the kind of site I’ve been looking for – a 9.11 FAQ.
The September 11 Archive from the Library of Congress is a great tool to reflect. In particular webheads, read up on 9.11 and the Web Sphere.
GMSV’s 9/11 blog is a huge listalinks.
Remember the Daily News’ weblog effort about hatred.
