Blogs put megaphone up to Sundance buzz
OK, sort of self-referential for this blog, but this is the view of Sundance from the Hollywood Reporter (via Reuters):
As befits its indie roots, the Sundance Film Festival has long played host to innovations that have spread elsewhere.
Blogging is one of them. Personal blogs, millions of them, are spreading on the Internet like kudzu, from LiveJournal.com to MySpace.com. Professional blogs such as Gawker Media’s gossipy Defamer.com draws some 270,000 page views per day.
As blogs become more successful, they are challenging traditional media, and this year’s Sundance marks a fascinating juncture as newly powerful blogs like http://www.Cinematical.com take on the likes of the Los Angeles Times and the New York Times.
