Internet culture? There's an internet culture? ;-)

I'm glad you liked it. And I love your comments--it's always nice to know someone is reading what I'm writing. The final sentence of this one, however, is a bit puzzling. Video? What video?

That is a very clever idea indeed. Some of the beats were doing stuff like that.
