With regard to the talent… the amount of talented people on the web astounds me ( though it shouldn’t.) Even though intellectually I know better, emotionally I had bought into the Hollywood / Music industry line that talent was exceedingly rare and hard to find ( thus justifying them charging a fortune for “developing” the talent.)

And although I am very glad these folks are finding a stage upon which to demonstrate their talent, and am pleased that the corporate myth that talent is rare is being eroded away …

It makes me feel pretty damn inadequate. Can’t sing, can’t play an instrument, can’t write, hell I can’t even hold my videocamera steady!

Is being boring a talent? I’m good at that 😉
