No worries. I've been dealing with political posts and I'm a little touchy. I do understand about bureaucratic stupidity. I can't tell you the number of web sites I visit to investigate or write about them that are inaccessible, even with DSL.
There is a spectrum of users here. From tore down broke who do vlog on 56k to those that have new shiny toys. We got MoonBats and WingNuts and there are a few I'm not sure take corporeal form. I will say the the lemming come lately television networks and advertisers have currently co-opted the term web video. Part of what we started to do years ago was to educate folks on what was possible. That education is continuing in different forms but it is continuing. It will take the lemmings more time to understand the nature of this new medium. They still think all they have to do it stick up a tv show and you are good to go. Same with the advertisers. The evolution will be streamed. Case in point, November 4th when there will be more user created content than has ever been created in one day. It already has change by the people and for the people. We just got to build more infrastructure to handle the crowd.
