Women of CVN76, 'That Don't Impress Me Much' was the work of an unnamed airman and included, fleeting shots of the door to the ship's nuclear power plant and of a Sailor dancing while wearing a full-body radiation suit. But the US Army has gone the other way, actively encouraging personnel to create their own videos for posting not on YouTube, but on TroopTube, a military movie site from Military OneSource. So they will ask Yotube et al to take down all videos made by soldiers, then say but hey, put them on Trooptube! Im sure Trooptube will not allow anonymous posters, so you can assured that all videos will be harmless and uncritical. Probably wont be encouraging of an open conversation. we'll see. Plenty of the stuff Ive seen posted by soldiers are dead people and the crazy stuff you see in war.

Re: [videoblogging] TroopTube (I shit you not)
It's actually not that bad. In a lot of places, when accessing the web from a .mil IP address sites are blocked (particularly consistently stateside). YouTube is one of the ones blocked. ( http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/11/11/trooptube-restores-streaming-video-to-our-nations-finest/) So, if you think about it, trooptube is pretty cool - every soldier has access to a public vid sharing site that is probably going to be visited by a higher density of users who care about/ can relate to what they're posting. It will likely help cut back on the youtube comments which lend themselves more to douchebaggery than to constructive support. I have to give it a thumbs up.

Already youtube has been used a lot for djs to preview tracks, and it¹s becoming more and more popular. After listening to the track you then go to a reseller (beatport, juno, etc) to buy the full quality track. It only makes sense to be able to buy it directly from youtube.

Re: [videoblogging] Buy this song
Just like making every letter and image clickable does not mean every webpage is now a useless mess of adverts, so making every pixel in a video clickable will not mean that videos become a useless mess of adverts. It creates the possibility for us to create endlessly networked videos without using text, where moving people and things and parts of the frame will be clickable in just the same way that words and graphics are. Web pages have moved from CLICK HERE blue underlined links to quiet intuitive links - words that only highlight when you roll the mouse over them and the coolness of the New York Times site where you can double click any word on the page to get a definition or history. In the same way, hypervideo will soon move away from having visible overlays to tell you that you can Click here - you'll be able to tell what you can click by rolling your mouse over a person or a thing. But we're just at the beginning, so there'll be some mess to begin with. When it's mature though, we won't be able to believe that we ever watched inert TV and videos.

Re: [videoblogging] Buy this song
What i like about video being the new webpage is that with a good video, you can get your message across without having to read, Nobody likes to read text on the screen. Also, I like the subliminal advertising via product placement in video content. If it is an obvious advertisement it can have hyperlinks = e-commerce solutions with an in the moment buying experience. How cool- to be able to get what you want when you want it. INSTANT gratification! I worked on a demo like that years ago, so i am happy that we are getting closer. I also do not like static pages, video can be interactive and viral it is much cooler then any static page and banners.. that is so old school. Hope that helps you understand my excitement.

Also, I like the subliminal advertising via product placement in video content. If it is an obvious advertisement it can have hyperlinks = e-commerce solutions with an in the moment buying experience. How cool- to be able to get what you want when you want it. INSTANT gratification! I worked on a demo like that years ago, so i am happy that we are getting closer. I also do not like static pages, video can be interactive and viral it is much cooler then any static page and banners.. that is so old school. Hope that helps you understand my excitement.

Re: [videoblogging] Bid for Placement on YouTube
My eyes automatically block out google's sponsored links in searches, in the same way they do ads, and I suspect any sponsored you tube video will also be brain-filtered. It seems like a natural response and I would think most people end up doing this - so I'm not sure spending any effort on winning a sponsored video auction will prove worthwhile unless its an overtly selling-something (like a pasta maker/espresso machine hybrid or something) video. But maybe it's just me. I know if I search for something in google, a few minutes later I can tell you the first few hits that came up, but I can't tell you any of the stuff that was in that sponsored section.

[videoblogging] Re: Bid for Placement on YouTube
This is not as evil as it sounds, because the placement won't be in your regular search results. Purchased placement will be on the right column, just like Adwords.

Re: [videoblogging] Bid for Placement on YouTube
I know many of you would be opposed to buying ads to get your content noticed, but what makes this auction process different? You are effectively buying an ad. I know Gary V has purchased google adwords to promote some of his content, depending on his motive buying placement on YouTube might also make sense. If you have a crappy video, no amount of money will get people to watch it. Buying an ad can be the only option for a great video to escape obscurity. As for Brooks' comment re: ignoring ads, someone must click on them because they pay me quite nicely. This will be no different. Some people will ignore promoted videos, some people won't.

Re: [videoblogging] Bid for Placement on YouTube
I don't have any more of a problem with this than I do the Sponsored Ads on Google. Like Brook, I filter them out, but a lot of people don't - so Google make billions of dollars of profit from them and from Adsense ads on other sites. As I noted here before, Google's revenue and profit were up a third and a quarter respectively in Q3 2008 largely off the back of these things. You're wrong if you think YouTube popular and featured videos aren't already gamed and bought. It's a stinking den of corruption in there. You should see the kind of bullshit tricks that 'viral' production and advertising companies pull to get their videos featured. This is just making an honest and open auction of it. If I had a client or a video that I think should get top billing for a niche subject, instead of trying to orchestrate some kind of incredibly spammy and unethical view-ramping campaign (and risk getting caught and deleted), I could just buy a sponsored slot. On a site where something like 10 hours of video are being uploaded every minute, that's about as organic and fair a way of buying attention as I can imagine.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Bid for Placement on YouTube
No no no no no. No. Nobody makes money on this shit except google. Vloggers will make peanuts, and traditional clients aren't up to spending money on such a risky spend. This is the devaluation of content that I fear may be the ass end of the democratization of media. I guess freedom ain't free. Serial and artistic content does NOT belong on YouTube. They have put the creator last from the beginning. 2008/11/13 liza jean [EMAIL PROTECTED] we figured this was coming. first two times youtube deleted us it was after we got a million channel views. seemed we were required to upgrade somehow to continue being seen. so, i wonder if my money is good with them. wonder if i am protected from being deleted. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com videoblogging%40yahoogroups.com, Jake Ludington [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I know many of you would be opposed to buying ads to get your content noticed, but what makes this auction process different?
