The incredible spate of terrorist attacks has knocked most the world's news sites off the Internet as people tried to find out the latest news. CNN has been offline ever since the news that a second plane had crashed into the World trade Center. The BBC has fared little better, which the site now inaccessible. MSNBC was available for a short while but seems to have disappeared as well following the posting of a video of the second plane crashing. The World Trade Centre Association Web site has also vanished, and access to any New York Webcams is impossible. It seems that the Internet has failed in its first truly hard test as a news disseminator. The best coverage is coming from the usual TV outlets.
