    Perhaps if we threw Julia Allison into a volcano the economy would improve.

    I regret to say that I know nearly everyone in that photo. Some are even my friends. And I am even sadder to report that none of them have the first fucking clue about how to save the dying media biz.


    I shall now jump head-first into a bottle of Australian shiraz.

    Engaging in this type of discussion is beneficial but it's only beneficial if there weren't just predictions being made about the future of the media. Yes, the newspaper are going bankrupt and the radio industry is slowly fading, but what can we do during this time of media transformation? How will the media itself change? Does the future hold a different representation of minorities or those who are not part of the dominant culture? I think that discussions about the media and how it will change are important, but after all has been said, something needs to be done or a plan should be created as we enter into a new media structure. Although we don't exactly know where the media is headed, we need to have an idea of how we want it to change.

    @Ryan Young: I have an idea of how I want It to change! The Media, all of them, meaning The Medias, plural, need to pay writers so we can eke out a comfortable upper class existence somewhere besides in Dreamland! I think the ref to the 'large few' who formerly eked it out were people like screenwriters, who had the sense to form a guild and demand a minimum for their work back in, what, 1933, and hasn't 1933 looked really familiar again lately? It should.

    @krismry: As much as i'd love to hoist a gallon-sized martini to that notion of paying writers well so we can live in Dreamland (although i prefer Fantasyland myself, but to each his own), i hate to point out to you that media is in fact already a plural noun.

    @Ryan Young: Who exactly are you? I assume you're one of these "new media figures" because it took you about 150 words to re-state the original problem in a way that makes it sound like you're trying to say something.

    Looking at the pic this appears to be a gay party. Is it mostly men and a few hags who are interested in this? Wait, wait... don't tell me... It's the Andrew Sullivan thang?

    My favorite moment from SXSW (from 1000 miles away, of course) was the crashing of wi-fi at the Hilton (and a few other places) over the weekend. These suddenly muted twitterers had no way of tweeting their every move and thought. The horror! What's the point of attending SXSW if you can't pretend for your few friends back home how great it all is?

    @MrInBetween: Tweeting? I hate that word. I prefer Twitting. Sounds more appropriate. Twits Twitting on Tweeter Twitting Tweets About Twits - say that five times real fast.
