Not to toot my own horn (toot toot) but I love when my observations (echoing Robert Cringely's observations) about Video A la Carte and Google Video ended up proving even mildly valid. In fact, I think I'll just keep making observations in this line and then in 10 years when they finish being true, I will have a beer.

My friend Dave Burrell was on Denver Channel 7 about his work as a home detective for Historical Insights and they gave him the video which he (fairly) promptly uploaded to Google Video.

How neat is that? And it all works wonderfully well. FCC/old media are walking dead.
