How To Build An Audience On The Internet: The Kevin Rose School Vs. The Fred Wilson School

Editor?s note: This guest post is written by?Tom Anderson, the former President, founder and first friend on MySpace. What kind of content creator are you? Kevin Rose or Fred Wilson? Blogging or "self-publishing" in any form was supposed to democratize and revolutionize the media industry. Content creators no longer needed mainstream platforms to get their voices heard. Bloggers weren't beholden to editors, and self-publishers could monetize their content with AdWords or any host of ad network partners. Where to host your content is a tricky issue. When blogging started to become a serious endeavor and Internet folks realized they could amass their own audiences, they naturally assumed it was important to own their domain, control their distribution list, maintain the links that have been built up to their content, or in summary, control their own destiny.
