lonely world no longer

All about lonelygirl15.

So everyone knows this was a fraud now ... but I still find the whole thing so compeltely fascinating. This is like the birth of a new medium. Kind of like how people say reality TV was born with MTV's Real World experiment (the first season of which I really liked actually) ... the difference here though is that its just dramatically reducing overheard and barriers to entry to distribution for content creators. ... I'm looking forward to this new era of totally distributed content creation.

Virginia Hefernan's nytimes.com blog pretty much covers the story, with a collection of good links.

Also, wikipedia has a pretty thorough explanation with alot of background more links.

So now you know.
