Kia ora e Tony!This all seemed a bit ;-) ouovibs to me until I realised how insidious it is. My family listen to NZ Radio a lot. Current affairs progs are now all available, free, as podcasts (bits) on their site. When someone misses a broadcast they wanted to hear, their dismay is ameliorated with, "I can always access the podcast". Of course, this event rarely actually happens. So not only has bits reduced the value of some things, it also shelves the possibility of their use.I'd already realised this was happening last century when people would stock up on videoed TV programs that they would never have the time to watch because they were watching the broadcasts - a time debt that was not able to be paid.The same (actually) applies to reading blogs. As pointed out to me about indexing blogs, "people don't use blogs that way".Because of 'bits', and the plethora of it, even bits are getting devalued.Thanks for the lead to Chris Anderson's latest.Catchya later
