Das "Web-Busch-Telefon" scheint wieder in Hochform:

Jeff Jarvis schreibt in sein Blog Buzzmachine Salam Pax sei eventuell verwundet worden. Jarvis beruft sich auf einen australischen Blogger - hier der Eintrag von John Quiggin, der seine Informationen wiederum von von einem Bekannten erhalten hat:

Sadly, Salam Pax, the Baghdad blogger who was featured in the opening of the segment has not posted for more than a week - maybe because Saddam's police got to him or maybe because of the cutoff of Internet access, now complete since the Americans bombed the telephone network out of existence.

Update A colleague has emailed me to say that, according to Al Jazeera, salam pax is wounded in hospital. He seems to be in the city of Najaf. The doctor said that he was on his computer when his house was hit by a bomb.

Further update: 5 April Jim Henley reports that Al Jazeera's English-language site is up here, and there is no mention of salam. So I guess something got confused along the way as happens with rumours of war. I hope so, anyway.

Alles mit viel, viel Vorsich zu geniessen ... es brodelt in der Gerüchteküche ...
