That new blog smell...

I stumbled on some fresh produce: Brent Friedman, co-founder of Electric Farm Entertainment, has a new blog at the EFE website.

Having been a fan of EFE projects [Afterworld, Gemini Division] and having interviewed Mr. Friedman a few times in the past I am always impressed by his vision. In this new blog Brent spells out the building blocks of "New Media"

As I posted in my comments there;

the salient points of “Old Media” copycat success and the “New Media” symbiotic relationship between content and consumer are the meat of the paradigm that is “Internet Broadcasting”.

What I am going to be excited to learn about in future blogs is the transparency between portals and viewer immersion; being able to watch/play/immerse myself in a project through multiple portals seamlessly. Not just Enhanced Experience or ARG ancillary content, but truly seamless pathing between distribution platforms to allow viewers active [or passive] participation in a project.

At the bottom of the post was a must have for those new to serialized web projects: If you haven't watched all of those GO NOW!
