indymedia in my opinion, although a wonderful source of info and
non-mainstream intel, i think suffers from too many "trolls". its my only
bit of advice to anyone who's going to start reading it: "beware of the
trolls" and dont be too put off by them. i think indymedia could do with
some peer reviewing of some sort, like slashdot.org
