Hi there. valis here.

Please follow me on a small journey back through time.

I seem to remember a day when the concept of "video" and "audio" files encomapsed a parameter in which "video" and "audio" files were hosted on private servers, with the ability to upload and download files was in the hands of the "users of the data". (Right click/download target as..)

One day, a company popped up, and decided that they would host video data for free. That seems real cool at first, as, back then, the economic strains of hosting video was just that; a strain.

Flash foward a bit:

A little Murdoch industry decides to buy said idea.

People love free video hosting.

People trust all thier data to said idea.

Said idea dominates technological competence.

Even "Anti-establishment" websites trust their data to said idea.

We become subservient to a technological "dumbing down".

Uploadable streaming YOUTUBE content is the antethesis of what we really need.

We ALREADY have the tools to "use the internet"

Are we really sheep in service to the digital norm?

No. We're not.

If we are going to be "broadcasters", let do just that.

Because, without "files" and "data" what exactly do we plan on posting on torrent networks, and other means of dissemination? What are we contributing to the datasphere?

Another YouTube link?

Maybe check out my MySpace page, dude?

I think not.

We are WAY better that that.
