Can't stand TV and I can't listen to radio (except NPR).

It's amazing what's out there. Video blogs - not on mainstream media. www.49media.com. So it's about getting involved in looking for new stuff - that's what his site does.

But what is relevant? Each person has their own relevance test. Not about hierarchies or lists. But you can see what other people are interested in and thinking about.

Podcasts are easy to create - but what do I do? I interview people who create the new media that appears on 49media.

Lots happening with video blogs in Holland and Germany. Fireant tool for videoblogging. Lots of 'content mash-ups' happening. Spinexpress from Outhink - build a peer to peer group - enables a mash up to be made. Encrypted
