Media snacking: the poll

People have been tossing around the term "media snacking" for a while now, referring to the rise in consumption of bite-sized media chunks (short form web video, RSS feeds, blogs, etc.) at the expense of traditional long form media (prime time television fare, in-depth print articles, big three portals.)  Just last week Mark Cuban blogged about the trend and delivered a not-particularly-charitable view of web video.  Then my March issue of Wired arrived on Friday sporting a more favorable cover story that explores media snacking and the broader trend toward miniaturization of everything in entertainment (from the content choose to the devices we use.)
