I just updated the mefeedia directory so vlogs are now ordered by
popularity. The algorythm I use is being tweaked, but it basically
looks at how much videos of a vlogger are being watched on mefeedia

you post). I figured that would be the best barometer (at least with
the data I have access to). I talk too much, enjoy!

Yeah those encrypted paypal buttons use a little mini form with 'hidden' fields. You probably wont be able to piece it together into one link because it would become an HTTP_GET instead of a HTTP_POST as the form expects (and I'm betting paypal checks for that). What I would do, if I were you, is create a small page on your site that thanks the viewer for clicking the pay-me button and has that button to paypal .. then use rel=payment to point to that new page. - Dave http://www.davidmeade.com --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Jan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a question about this tag for you fine developers: my paypal button is encrypted and doesn't appear to have a URL in the traditional sense of the word.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: itunes censorship?
Here is an example of of the iTunes feed that seems to be working fine for me evey time: http://tinyurl.com/dnmjf By using XML, you simply extract your database data and that becomes reformated automatically for each post. One note, yes, sometimes individual posts will not show up in iTunes if there is not a media file enclosed that iTunes can read. For a great test/examination into what will and will not work, add apollopony feed to iTunes manually (its not in the directory) and see what posts are included and which posts iTunes ignores. Some mpgs are included, some are not. I assume it has to do with the codec: http://tinyurl.com/e25dq I use Moveable Type which comes with XML templates so its very easy to tweak.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: itunes censorship?
Mark, .mov is a container which can include a variety of CODECS. You may be using one that does not work. The same is true for .mp4 Is your .mp4 compressed with mpeg4? Is it an .mp4 ISA? Enhanced? Plain? Most likely inside your .mov you are using an incompatible codec. There are many in Quicktime that are not compatable with iTunes. You can make an sorenson, cinpak, mpeg4, 3ivx, etc. so make sure you are using a good one. Also, the 3ivx can have settings that make it unplayable, make sure you are not overkilling the compression req.

[videoblogging] Re: Raymond's #5 Education and Vlogging and Übel Knübel
Hi, Glad I found this thread, and sorry it took so long! (FYI, I am putting up the entire Übel Knübel German learning education series on http://zipzapzop.com) this week! Übel Knübel was vlogging a couple years back and didn't even know it! Anyway, I've been using my own homemade videos to teach German (over TV, then online) for over 10 years now, and vlogging and podcasting are the next steps forward (finally!) not only to present material to students, but to have students communicate with each other and instructor(for online classes especially.) I love Bre's idea about vlogging for students who missed class! Luckily, with online ed. it's asynchronous so they don't have to miss class ever, really. I just sent a message to all my online teaching colleagues for my online school telling them about Screencasting software (thanks to Raymund and Ryanne who clued me in on that!) which I think is VITAL to the start of the school year for new online students so that you can give them a tour of how to work in the class. I'm going to be using it at the start of the schoolyear BIG TIME. :) Unfortunately, a LOT of online education (and classroom, too) does not take advantage of the possibilities of reaching more students' learning styles through the use of multimedia, audio and video. One of the most important things is to get teachers to realize how easily they can now create their own videos to support their classes. I would like to get some sort of company started that would specifically work toward bringing more **teacher and student created** video and audio into education. It could consist of training and consulting for teachers to learn how to do it or even creating it ourselves as well... Hmm.

[videoblogging] Re: Raymond's #5 Education and Vlogging
Hi Hassan, I think first of all the FreeVlog.org site is very handy for educators to see how to create and upload vlogs. I am interested to work with some others on perhaps creating a consulting site that is more specific to educators that could cover: -starting with basic videotaping/lighting/sound tips (I saw this out there already somewhere, and it was great but I can't remember where. Bre, was it you, I think?) -using a webcam to create vlog posts -creativ ideas for teachers or students creating their own short videos to support the learning in all content areas -how to capture the video using Quicktime Pro, iMovie, etc. -uploading videos Admittedly, though, I teach Colorado high schools students online German, and most of them do not seem to have the skills or technology access to create and upload audio/video content at this point. It's a bit disappointing, actually. I have tried for years to get students to create audio files of themselves speaking German and to upload them, and they just end up calling into the voice mail line instead... it's a slow-going process, but if there is better information and a site like FreeVlog.org that gives excellent step-by-step instructions it will help. clark http://zipzapzop.com (this week featuring Übel Knübel's world, the German 16 year old vlogger doll) --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, hassan shakir [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm interested in the education/vlogs in schools.

[videoblogging] Re: itunes censorship?
I have looked at your specific problem. Its not Itunes, its your feed. If I look at your feedburner feed in a browser, the episode that isnt showing up does not have a 'listen' link on the stylesheet-formatted version of the feed. If I then look at the raw XML source of the feed, it is entirely missing enclosure, media enclosure and itunes stuff for just that one episode. Dont ask me why feedburner has missed this out for that episode, I dont use feedburner, but thats definately the problem. Regarding itunes censorship, I doubt they have much resources to do it at the moment, or at least Id assume it will be done on a per-feed basis, rather than per episode. Still considering that insane films is listed despite its extremely graphic content, I feel they are going for the hands-off approach at the moment, certainly when it comes to adult content anyway.

So, not specifically related to mefeedia, but: Does a pay me/support me link turn the vlog into a commercial undertaking?

DropCash provides a nice easy way to do this. The problem with PayPal is that it is not easy to direct-link to. DropCash makes this easy by providing a permalink for payment (my term). Note that this rel=payment thing doesn't only have to be one static location for payments to *you*. It could link to your Cafe Press store, a fundraising campaign (hit the bat! anyone?), and Amazon Affilliate link, literally anything. It is flexible.

They have a spider that regurgitates articles and thus sits on top of technorati everyday, winning paid banner ad sales for any google news item that says vlog. For instance, do a technorati search for 'rocketboom' or 'clint sharp' and vlogtoblog will be the top result with the recent Akimbo article. http://technorati.com The guy has no contact info and a blocked e-mail on his dns lookup but I found it, its: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (he is cc'd here for good measure (I'm talking to you, you pirate!) I tried emailing him to ask whats up. I also found he left a comment on a podcasting marketing site. I guess it's time to notify technorati, Google and Yahoo and his DNS service. The reason why this is considered malicious activity is because he is destroying the search return resulta, taking old news and always bringing it back up in order to make personal return.

*Sorry for the political discussion, but it also has to do with video.* I realize this is a global list, but it was the easiest way I could think of to contact all US videobloggers. The reason why I did not say US in the original post was because I didn't want others to feel like they were left out (I feel like the war is a global issue as well.. although the US does not think globally all the time). Just to let you know, so you don't get a false impression of who I am or why I'm doing this.. I am also one of those liberal bastards that totally opposes the war, and a lot of the policies carried out under the current administration. The reason I had this idea, was to show support for my friend/coworker who was sent to Baghdad, and also shares my opinions on the situation over there. He did not want to go, but was given orders to do so. The dvd was just a little thing I can do to show that I actually care enough for his well-being to send video messages to him and his group..since they are away from their families.

This gets saved as a generic .MOV file. This is helpful. Like I said, I compress the hell out of my movies for the web (and my friends with slower connections), going Sorensen 3 at Low, scaling down to 240x180, 64 bits for audio, etc. I was just looking for how to get MOV files that were closest to the original MOV files that my camera made natively -- 320x240, 30fps, etc. I'll try the CD-ROM setting. This is probably too big for the web in my case, but good for archiving to CD (or now, DVD -- yay!). Question: Should I be using Sorensen 3? Or is MPEG-4 better for cross-platform availability (though wrapping it in a MOV file kind of kills that)? Or H.263? So many choices... the blessings and bane of videoblogging. H.264 video's look great if the original video is excellent quality and you dont mind the time it takes to export (forever on a G3 iMac 500Mhz!!!). And if you don't mind people not being able to see them (but they can hear them just fine!). I'm sure H.264 will rule the world, someday, but I'm not ready for it. It's too much codec for an amateur like me! PS. iMovie doesnt do Text very clearly so if you are gonna use text in a movie you should import as a picture from Photoshop or something like that. That's what I've been doing. QuickTime's text tracks are quite powerful for meta uses (I.e. captioning), but for just plain looking good, they leave a lot to be desired. My problem is, I have Photoshop for the PC but not the Mac. So I might have to start using iMovie's title features until I figure out Adobe's cross upgrade thing (if it even exists anymore).

[videoblogging] Re: itunes censorship?
Hi all, just joined the list after seeing this post and figured I'd jump in with a few comments. (For context - I'm with FeedBurner, I work with publishers who run their feeds through us.) --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, andrew michael baron wrote: No, I am nearly certain your problem is Feedburner. We have 1000s of subscribers and I have spent about two weeks closely watching and coming to understand how iTunes works. We're always looking for more input, this has most definitely been a bit of a moving target the last few weeks. I've been talking with the podcasting team at Apple since just ahead of launch, and we're working with their engineers to ensure that our iTunes support is as effective as possible. When iTunes launched, most of the videobloggers were out in the cold for one reason: Feedburner. This seems a bit off the mark; since we republish your source feed, you're of course always welcome to add anything to your source feed that you like - we certainly don't strip anything out. A number of our more eager users in fact went live with iTunes support within hours of 4.9's launch, and then proceeded to fumble around as it became clear that the spec, the examples and the actual implementation were all a bit different. So we spent several days to ensure that we could add one-click iTunes support, something we released less than a week after 4.9 launched. Now the more than 10,000 vlog and podcast feeds which run through us have two options - either bake in the extensions directly by hand (or some other 3rd party plugin), or select the metadata from the drop-downs in the smartcast service menu at FeedBurner. When you depend on a 3rd party, you are at their mercy for your feed. I said this a long time ago but now we can see the direct effects. We now have more than 50,000 publishers running nearly 80,000 feeds through us, and we take their dependence on us very seriously. We provide a free service for most (some users pay for enhanced stats), but it's an important and valued service to our users, and we strive to make the service as reliable and robust as possible... we'd have loved to throw iTunes support out there on day 1, but the flip-side of having so many people rely on you is that you have an obligation to get it right and eliminate as many rough edges as possible, so it's simple and reliable for the vast majority of the user base. Also, Feedburner sucks for not having any control over updating your feed. We've actually had built-in support for XMLRPC pings since day one, details are here: http://www.burningdoor.com/feedburner/archives/000478.html Once you've pinged us, the very next time someone requests your feed, we'll retrieve the most current version of the feed from your source URL. Hey sorry Feedburner guys, I think you are doing great things and people obviously need you. But this just sucks and makes the whole thing not worth it. Hopefully I've been able to shed some light on how we operate and correct a few misconceptions. Couple thoughts if any of you have specific issues that come up - if you're a FeedBurner user having issues with your feed, you should send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] That goes to our extended support team and generally gets you a reply within a few minutes. If you want to engage our user community, you can also post to our Forums - http://forums.feedburner.com/. We also try to answer those pretty quickly, you'll often see replies from other users as well. Finally, my contact info is below. While I'll try to keep an eye on things on this list and chime in if I can help (no self-promotion, I promise!), you're more than welcome to ping me directly. I've been a fan of vlogging since meeting Raymond Kristiansen a while back (I was at Socialtext then, and was working with him on the wiki for his day job), and am fascinated with where things are heading. It's exciting to be at a company that's helping the medium evolve... and of course, if we can make FeedBurner more responsive to the needs of vloggers, just let me know how. OK, this was far longer than I'd meant it to be.

Re: [videoblogging] Video Ipod in less than 2months?
Hmmm interesting though, I think the main problem is Battery life, If you where to keep the colour screen on for longer than 10 seconds at a time the thing would be out in well... mabey an hour or two at the most.

[videoblogging] Feedburner and iTMS

Here's what I want to know: Is Feedburner submitting feeds to iTunes on users' behalf? Is iTunes somehow using Feedburner as a source? Because twice now my Feedburner feed has turned up in the iTMS in addition to my real feed, and I've had to ask that it be removed. I can't figure out who's sending in the Feedburner feed in the first place.

Re: [videoblogging] VlogMap Blog
I've created a blog for the VlogMap... Blog - http://www.vlogmap.org/blog/ Feed - http://www.vlogmap.org/blog/feed/ It will be a less intrusive way for me to notify the community of updates and should provide a better place for users to voice their comments/suggestions/problems. Matt, youve done a kick ass job on vlogmap.org. this is exactly what this community needs. if you like/hate what someone says on this list...go see if they have a videoblog on vlogmap.org. check out their work. (if they dont have a videoblog, then mayeb that says something). please add yourself to the map. vlogmap.org Jay -- URL: http://www.momentshowing.net Adventures in Videoblogging YAHOO!
