Not so much a breaking news thing as an in depth thing, try to capture a situation, a world, in depth. Better/Different than reuters? Yea I think so. Too different for comparison, breaking headlines isn't the aim here, giving people a better idea of a situation is the aim. I think it's possible to put together a compelling photojournal of something.

Take Iraq for example, I find the DIRs of images that soldiers and their buddies have uploaded to be the most interesting and the most telling stuff I've seen about the war, bar none, does anyone else feel this way?

Bandwidth is another issue, I'm hacking up a couple of different ideas about how this kind of thing would be done at the moment, different levels of bandwidth willl be taken into account.
