Isn't the web great?
OK, it might be playing havoc with the newspaper industry's circulation figures, and giving a platform to all kinds of fruitcakes, but you can't beat the immediacy.
Within five minutes of Ian Austen receiving a tip-off that Selsdon High head Janet Packer was leaving her post, we had the story confirmed, written and online.
Obviously I'd have preferred it if it had happened 24 hours earlier so it went in the paper as well, but you can't have it all.
