A good post by Clay at Many2Many. The first two comments are mine. I will repeat the second one here:

And of course, I forgot my original reason for commenting which was specific to the word "content" in the title of this post. One quibble I had with Esther Dyson's otherwise perceptive NYT article a while back was that when you talk about the stuff that people are posting as "user-generated content" it is really easy to miss what's
going on.

When someone uploads daily photos of his son, born at 24 weeks and struggling to survive, it is not like that is an alternative to watching TV or reading a magazine. "Content" is what movie studios and publishing houses create, the kind of stuff that cable companies distribute, etc. And if you confuse that with the stuff that lives are made out of, then you're just not seeing things clearly ("reality TV" to one side).

(Btw, on the blogging a lot thing: this is great! I feel like Dave Winer. Weeeeee!)
