One of the expressions of doubt we have encountered about the usefulness of Project PM is that it networks mostly blogs and is thus deficient in bringing factual material to readers. I thought this piece by Neal Ungerleider articulates a valid insight in that regard: to the extent online writers are looking at the vast and increasing body of raw information found online, this is essentially similar to investigative journalism and is not opinion or commentary. The comments are interesting, also.
