Technologies such as podcasting and vlogging, which involve publishing user-created content, are becoming the expressive means with which a whole new generation of internet users is using to make their voices heard. Make the Cut is a tool that allows for an easy rehashing of published materials in order to formulate a new perspective on the topic. Viewers rearrange existing imagery and add their own viewpoint in the form of an extra soundtrack and audio commentary. The Wii Remote makes the editing easier and closer to the traditional TV experience - thus further closing the gap between TV as watching and TV as creating.
