Yes, the NYPD’s SVU is handling it and it looks like this will be a lot more trouble for Strauss-Kahn and the IMF than all the other stories he had to deal with in the past.

Sitting in HK reading the paper on a Sunday morning at 6am, what continues to amaze me is how we ever so quickly have entered a new era of information delivery.

Once the NY Times’ alert popped up on my iPad, hundreds of Twitter posts were being added per second on the arrest of Strauss Kahn at JFK on board an Air France plane to Paris.

Time to reread James Surowiecki’s Wisdom of Crowds… “how collective wisdom shapes business, economies, societies, and nations”… his work in the New Yorker touches on it, but I am not sure even he anticipated just how much has changed in such a short period of time.
