The Last Word: Art Buchwald

I like to follow new trends in media, graphics and communication. This one I read about at blogaholics is rather interesting.

Just today I learned about the death of columnist and humorist Art Buchwald. He left something for us to see. He recorded a video obituary before he died. (View it at the New York Times website.)

According to the Times, these are called The Last Word interviews and they have several already recorded.

It's an novel way to leave your message, and it sounds like we may see more of these.  What do you think? Love it or hate it?
