Comments on: Of the web http://misener.org/archives/608 an internet weblog from Dan Misener Sat, 28 Jan 2012 19:11:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Paul Rissenhttp://misener.org/archives/608#comment-14654 Paul Rissen Wed, 20 Jan 2010 07:38:31 +0000 http://misener.org/archives/608#comment-14654 I completely agree - the vast majority of websites tend to treat the web as a distribution channel, rather than as a medium in its' own right.
