It's been written about in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Mercury News, Newsweek, the Los Angeles Times, the Washington Post, USA Today, Fortune, Time and on blogs, blogs and more blogs"

Youtube is so over... brought to you by the guys that said 6 months ago that Myspace is so over.

I concede that this is a terribly written article, but the driving point is still valid. There are particularly a couple points the author makes that hits the generational struggles baked into our society. I liked this: "...they're cutting deals with the suits (OK, with the sport coats and open-collar polo shirts)". Younger generation will always have the bulk of disposable income (whether they actually do or not is a different story...) and older generation is always going to try and extract whatever they can out of them using what's 'hip, thus making it not so 'hip' anymore. Monetize, monetize, monetize!
