How to follow 9/11 anniversary coverage on the web

Sitting in India waiting for the internet dawn of the American morning this September 11, has indeed been exciting. One knew that there would be look-backs, analyses, first person accounts, and some stunning visuals and infographics on every aspect of this day. And we haven’t been disappointed. Here are our top picks. [caption id=“attachment_81221” align=“alignleft” width=“380” caption=“Screengrab of CNN.com”] [/caption] Log on right now to  NPR’s live coverage of the commemoration ceremony  and their live blog for the day. The commentary and the analysis is truly excellent. For live video streaming coverage CNN.com, is actually, a fraction faster than television. The New York Times, simply has to be the place where you begin to read. Yes, for the journalism but more because, this was New York’s heart that was broken a decade ago. Their special section, The Reckoning does not disappoint. Divided into nine parts, there is long form, crowdsourced graphics, infographics, slideshows and videos. From the first section called “The Decade” don’t miss the beautifully done video journalism titled Lessons Learned - Is this what it means to be at war ? Muslims Now and 9/11 State of Mind are also penetrating sections as the Times gives us a deeply nuanced reading of how much America and the discourse around the politics of terror have changed. The 9/11 microsite on Yahoo! gives you much too. The standout is certainly the reader contributions that are very many and various. They will also be maintaining a moment of digital silence at 8:46 am the exact time when the planes crashed into the towers. The Washington Post’s Nine Lives, Ten Years Later, features April Gallop who is asking the US Government some very hard questions. An unnerving long read.
