Andrew Keen elitist.

Andrew Keen look disappointed the way the blogosphere evolve, see on his blog under the title 'The devil wears Hermes and is a blogger' and in reference on his book . We like or not what he write about the internet, but for me the overuse of video linked to Youtube by more and more bloggers is not a good thing . I started to dumped blogs using this 'video link' too much with nothing else as contents. It's very annoying.
