'''The bendable, hackable, remixable nature of the web has dramatically changed the media landscape.''' Television. Radio. News. Comics. Music. Books. All have been engulfed by the technology and culture of the internet. Or, as grand media meister McLuhan put it: TV, radio, books, etc. have become the content of the web. | |||
