NO BOO-YAH FOR THE INDIES 

Here's Jim Cramer on the video podcasting revolution:

"Bloggers may be stealing readers away from newspapers, but when it comes to audio and video feeds, people will go for high production values. Which would you rather spend time uploading to your iPod: An episode of Lost or a grainy feed of someone prattling about their favorite celeb? So, for a few more years, the media we download will be the same stuff you see or hear on old media. The masses will have to wait for cheap, yet sophisticated production technology in order to win a wider audience. Until then, the quickest route to fame will remain reality TV."

High produciton values in a tiny viewer on your monitor or ipod? Wake up, man. 13 year olds can publish beautiful vlogs and podcasts these days. All the information you need to do it comes packaged with your new Mac or PC. Just because you don't have the patience to sit down and figure out iMovie or the talent to produce an engaging vlog or podcast doesn't mean no one else can.
