Truth in Advertising

Alec Baldwin, is now one of the folks hawking the latest competitor to youtube and the other viral video vaults.

Sadly despite its tongue in cheek manner and its mocking of the Science Fiction genre staple of Alien Invasion, there is more than a little truth to the ad. After all we have gone from a nation of reader / thinkers to a nation of sound bite listeners and video junkies.

Yes, I too am a video junkie though I try to limit it, I have on rare occasions gone days without TV, Internet or Cell Phone. Usually followed by binging on one or more of the three upon return to "civilization."
