There are at least two "revolutions:

  - Distribution can be done by anyone.
  - Blogs are a new medium.

The first is not limited to blogging. Podcasting and IPTV and webzines are  
all players in that revolution along with 15 million other projects. The  
latter is bound to blogs, whether rocketboom or michaelverdi.com have more  
bloggy blogs is a really boring discussion. One could argue it both ways  
easily because either site use the blog medium in different ways.

I would prefer if the "personal touch" got left out of this discussion. Go  
after the ball, not the man.
