DISQUS

I think that "failed" newspapers could make an ideal rendering platform. Imagine your lesson for the day delivered to the school as the humble newspaper -- but instead of the normal sections -- K through 12 content specific for that day. Something a parent could also have delivered to their door.

Newspapers already have the infrastructure for this and lesson plans would mean producing a paper for the day that accounts for the information consumed by high school students as well.

"Reading the paper" would have a completely new connotation in the world of open source textbook materials. Flat World could probably be made to deliver and drive content assembly into a format that newspapers could grok.
