"youtube is faster, more personalized, and less censored than tv, and there are fewer commercials. but it's also lonelier, less welcoming, and more pathetically voyeuristic." it probably makes me soft to agree with this column, but i do for the most part. "not long ago, we were hitting each other's groins at family picnics. now, we are groin punching alone". groin punching alone... that should so be youtube's tagline. i'm sure putnam wouldn't mind.
