Big Media, Be Very Concerned

4 October 2003

The essence of (serious) weblogging is that it can replace ”big media” as a source of not only stories, but of which stories are worth noting. It’s better said at BloggerCon 2003:

Big room in Harvard law school. Picture on the wall of Rosa Parks integrating that bus.

Forgive me for this comparison, but-we aim at our own small upset of the balance of power here. In a world where web publishing is easy, fast, and widespreadin a world of weblogs-the big guys lose the power to decide which stories get spread around and which get buried.
