McLuhan actually claims that the immersion with tv (low-res in his day) was much larger than cinema (high-res) because the viewers had to get further into the work to understand it (fill out more blanks, so to speak). One could easily argue that immersion on blogs is even more extreme because of the interactivity. - Andreas -- <URL: http://www.solitude.dk/ > Commentary on media, communication, culture and technology. ------------------------ Yahoo!
