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.)
With that as background, I've decided to introduce my first "blogpoll." What do you think about media snacking? How would you characterize your own media habits? Join the conversation, why dontcha...
