Re: [videoblogging] It's about the Individual

When historian's look back on the early 21st century, perhaps they will see this as the beginning of the Individual Media Revolution. Where content (in all forms) resides in a frictionless cloud with aggregation occuring on an as-needed basis.

Robin Good mentions this back in April of 2004, and I am sure there are others as well. http://www.masternewmedia.org/2004/04/26/the_individual_is_the_epicenter.htm.

I'll have to think about this more, but yes, I think that is where it is going. Well either there, or here: http://www.robinsloan.com/epic/

Usually I read from beginning to end -- I took this from how I would
study in College to know everything for a test, especially for foreign

just the information necessary for my current plans.

Then it came to me that all this -- videoblogging/video prodcasting,
blogging, Web 2.0 -- is about the Individual being at the center.
It's not about video being bloggy or linking out, about social or any
of the other cra...err...stuff.  It's not tech or method. 

It's not just about saying f-u to the FCC, it's about saying f-u to
any person setting themselves as authority  about what you should do
when you see another path.   Damn straight it's about narcissim -- the
individual not being commanded by a corporation, an authority figure,
a broadcast medium, or any other person.  It's the individual at the
center of choices.
