Dave carried the idea into today's posts, mentioning Steve by name. I decided to weigh in over there.
But here, let me just ask this question: What would this conversation be about if Cho had used the distribution of the web that we all cherish? There wouldn't be any discussion about NBC and the mass media controlling the story, because Cho's intention would be so widely distributed and uncontrolled right now as to be unstoppable. Ultimately, if Cho understood more of what the social revolution of the web is about, with its strength of decentralized distribution, his intent of getting his videos seen by the world would have already been realized. Vloggers get that. Cho was decidedly NOT one of us. Just a thought.
