I'm not demanding that he stop. I think it's important that he stop. On the rare occasion that I've been interviewed about videoblogging I have never even considered saying things like "Rocketboom is boring", "Who would want to watch that?", or "videoblog 'shows' are just boring TV on the internet." Why have I not said those things? Two reasons: 1. I don't believe them to be true. 2. The importance of people being able to create and distribute their own media is way more important than whether or not I'm a fan of a particular genre. I just wish that Andrew, given the voice Rocketboom affords him in the media, could see that. Verdi ------------------------ Yahoo!
