Just when they had the Internet figured out, big media?s running scared again. The power of participatory publishing has taken the blogosphere from laughing stock to triple threat: First text blogs knocked the wind out of the old world newspapers; then Yahoo bet big on photo sharing by buying Flickr; iTunes has used podcasts to bring back radio shows; now YouTube and a mob of ?vlogging? technologies are pulling eyeballs away from network and cable TV.
