"You've Got A Friend In Me" ....How many of us in our day-to-day ritual of Web surfing and TV surfing do this surfing simultaneously? I know I do! I sit on my computer as I watch E! News or re-runs of The Office. I am actually doing exactly that, right now. When Internet came along, people thought it was going to be the end of Television. We can watch movies, listen to music, chat with friends, do our homework, all at the same time when we use our computers and browse the endless amounts of Internet site. It is the greatest creation ever made. I seriously, honestly, truthfully, do not remember life without the Internet. How sad.

Long Tail Article
We always think the most popular hits, flicks and read's are the bestsellers, but what happens to the one-hit wonders? Well, they make their fairy-tale comeback and sell bigger than those so-called “bestseller’s”. In the Long Tail article, Chris Anderson explains a concept in the entertainment industry that the less popular media, whether it be movies, music, video games, etc. rakes in more dough than the raving box office hits or #1's do. Just because a song, movie, book or even television show is not being talked about in the national media, does not mean that it is not being bought and played over and over again. It just so happens that these items are bringing in more sales than the leading film or #1 bestseller’s do.
