The spring of 2006 will go down as a curious moment in (time when) the mainstream-media steamroller caught up with a bona fide cultural phenomenon, then flattened it into a cliché before the average person knew what all the fuss was about. That's ironic, because the fuss was about the average person--that is, his or her participation in what's known as "social media," "social networking," "user-generated content," the "live Web."
