Beppe Grillo a well known Italian satirist utilises the full functionality of a blog to create dialogue and conversation with his audience. He also uses a blog as a powerful autonomous political platform in terms of distribution and spreading his perspective.
Equally he ties in other sharing websites and social software resources. For example video is distributed via street-tv and YouTube. (Beppe’s YouTube channel) The video seem to be a mix of his own speeches and interviews, along with linking in videos made by people he invites to contact him and comment on his blog. For example there are links to a post on a disabled student’s perspective of trying to get into a lecture space, posted on his blog and viewed on YouTube.
