This is another example of what Chris Anderson author of 'The Long Tail' ( and editor of Wired magazine) calls the niche market. www.thelongtail.com

This little video – very old footage shot over 10 years ago in analogue during a stopover in Alaska en route to Japan was put up on the net 5 months ago. Its had 670 "hits", which is modest but the interesting thing is that it continues every week to attract new viewers. Its the "long tail" effect and it applies to everything digital.

And that's what makes it so exciting for the future .

All things digital have a different mode of culture and commerce, no longer dominated by mass media,cultural gatekeepers, Box-office hits and top-seller lists.
