The Open Media Revolution Is Over: Are We Better Off?

Chamillionaire + Perkins + Arrington + Scoble + Tyrangiel + Hardy = seriously awesome panel on the current state of open media and where things may be headed.

This was, without a doubt, the best panel of the whole conference. Not only was everyone a rock star but the discussion got pretty heated too. This panel is a must watch so I’m not even going to summarize it for you. I will highlight two of my favorite moments though: The first is when Chamillionaire laid it all out on the table and shut everyone up. The second was when the founder and editor of one publication called the founder and editor of another publication an extortionist.  What made it better was that the accused then agreed to the claim. Maybe the open media revolution isn’t all that open after all?
