CNN reports that an email hoax is circulating reporting that CNN has claimed Osama bin Laden has committed suicide. The email contains an image file that is actually a virus.

Beware

I was online recently with an acquaintance at Houghton Mifflin and she said she was taking this week off to avoid complications of the convention. Houghton Miffilin is located in Boston.

This election year seems extremely important in setting the future path for the country. Differences of opinion regarding the war in Iraq and how it should now be resolved will likely be quite influential. Fundamental goals for education will also be important to many of us.

I was curious about how the Internet might be involved in this process. Each party has a convention site – Democratic Convention; Republican Convention. The same is true for the candidates – George Bush; John Kerry.

The democrats promise a gavel to gavel webcast and blogs. The Republicans will likely provide the same sources.

Washington Post comment on this phenomenon.
