| BuffScan's Buffalo media directory is now live. Perhaps more an editorial than a useful listing, it provides basic links to area media outlets, corporate and independent. Many of the independent links are discussed and highlighted regularly at this website. |
BuffScan is the WWW hub for replacing police scanning with something else. It is by effect of this mission a Buffalo New York news and information website built around individuals pre-disposed and charged to document and broadcast. This detail of the evolution is all in the narrative voice of David Pinero, your BuffScan Editor-in-Chief.
Your BuffScan Editor-in-chief, David Pinero.
As "BuffScan Node # 1", your BuffScan Editor-in-Chief uses this site to openly reflect, err, and showcase said news and drama to the extent that one individual can. That's pretty limited insofar as content churn, but keep in mind, the revolution that BuffScan attempts to seed and build - or at least one or the other - involves scores of individuals doing exactly the same thing as regular everyday people. Not well-resourced news people with the time and gas money; not people with "good inside relationships", mainstream or otherwise. Those form factors, while invaluable in some way in their own right, are not the solution to "replacing police scanning with something else" no matter how sharp or professionally executing the process of is. The actual solution is one person where they stand here, another person where they stand there, and so on and so on, until the network is breathing and thriving as a singular output. This is a model even AI can't beat.
