I just read this interview, which I thought was quite interesting:

I thought it was particularly interesting that Disneyland's press people seem not to understand the reach of Web sites. According to Lutz:

I thought it was particularly interesting that Disneyland's press people seem not to understand the reach of Web sites. According to Lutz:
Did you see the coverage on Finding Nemo [a new attraction at Disneyland] and what happened with that? They invited in all the media, but they put the bloggers in the walkway by the Matterhorn [a location many yards away from the Finding Nemo ride]. That's what they think of the Web. They put them in Siberia. I feel badly that they don't understand that we reach more people in one day than all of these podunk newspapers that they fly out to cover these events.
