The awards season

So I watched the Academy awards last night. Online...

It appears that I am now viewing more and more live telelvision programming online while doing other things and being productive in other ways. I was able to follow the events in real time through the LA times and NY times websites.

The LA times had some banal journalist giving his trite opinions in a very LA fashionista style every 10 to 15 miunutes or so. The NY times was faster in their updates and reported the award for best picture 3 minutes before the LA times did.

There is so much media these days that in my mind I have accepted these awards that are given out after the holiday season as an entirely new season all together. Lets just call it "award" instead of winter.

Between the American Spirit Award, the Golden Globes, the Asian award, BET awards, the People's choice award, the Oscars, Emmys, Tonys, Razzies, Webbies as well as countless others, it appears that the value of these has lost its allure and value over the years.

In retrospect its all about business and creativity. And that is just fine with me. The more creative businesses we can make the better.
