Came across the above video while browsing YouTube earlier today. However, although I had also previously come across a recent blog post by Seven Days j-blogger Cathy Resmer (802 Online) concerning The Long Tail book by Chris Anderson she is currently reading (here), it was not until I viewed the video that I finally bothered to more fully read her initial post on the subject as well as click some of the links she provided within it.
