One Big Library.

...you wake up to read in the morning paper about various countries invading each other, further increases in "off-the-books" deficit/debt spending, drug-resistant infections, federalized spying programs, mortgage market crises, and drastic climate change, but then something catches your eye on page A21.

And then you realize - Hey, that's what you've been working on for the past six months.

The only drag is that the screenshots appearing in the papers (the Post's print edition had two color shots, and the Herald Tribune has one, too) are in English, so you don't get to see that pretty much every page on the whole site translates into seven different languages.

But aside from that, how great is it to be working in a profession that -- on a good day -- can help to inspire respect for other cultures and to establish critical thinking?
