Journalism, Youth and Business in the Digital World

09/23/2008 at 12:00 p.m.

The digital generation is coming of age, and changing everything. So says John Palfrey. He studies the "digital natives" among us, and he says they'll transform everything from our politics to family life.

Also today, Wired reporter Jeff Howe explains how businesses "crowdsource" work that individuals used to do. Plus, a journalist creates an online marketplace where groups of citizens can hire reporters.
