I haven't heard of any active net initiatives yet, however I got an 
interesting email this morning. It's from a newletter I subscribe to
which tries to analize geo-political events.

This morning's report focuses on what is happeneing in Indonesia, why
it is happening, and speculates that what we see happening in Indonesia
now is a harbinger of what may very well happen in China in the near 
future.

Rather than copy the list I can fwd a copy to anyone who wants one.
Oh wait, you can also get it from their web site at:

Personally I like the Stratfor newsletter quite a bit. Regardless of one's
political or ideological leanings, I consider them to be fairly non-partisan
and objective. I.e. "we think this is happening for these reasons". It's
like having your own little intelligence agency reporting to you on global
affairs. Which is handy.
