[videoblogging] Re: FTC rules on blogger Payola
Apply these rules to Politicians and you can count me in. I agree with Rupert. (shock, gasp) It seems they would like to impose regulations on free people that they begrudgingly impose on corporate society from time to time. The only truth in advertising is in the fine print where they tell why everything they've said in large print is bullshit.

[videoblogging] interactive YouTube story videos
Thought y'all would find this interesting. I know you can link to other videos inside a YouTube video - but Shoebox (The Hallmark Cards guys) created an interactive story video series - sorta fun! http://www.shoeboxblog.com/?p=11676 Pretty cool to see those interactive youtube links used for something fun and story-based.

Re: [videoblogging] interactive YouTube story videos
Nice! I've been working on this stuff a little - writing scripts and maps, developing projects and ways of keeping engagement immersive. Along the way, we've been compiling some examples of what's been done so far. Here are a couple: One serious, to combat knife crime: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFVkzYDNJqo One silly comic book style adventure: http://www.chadmattandrob.com/ And here's a silly videoblog style one that I did last year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtQg_LCq_T8fmt=18 I've also got that hypervideo exquisite corpse project going again, after putting it on hold when I had a baby last year. Should be done by Christmas. Rupert http://twittervlog.tv On 7-Oct-09, at 6:03 PM, David King wrote: Thought y'all would find this interesting.

[videoblogging] Re: FTC rules on blogger Payola
There are some bloggers on the other side of the fence, a few (small, minority) Parental bloggers have been shaking down PR folks for goodies, perks and pay for play. There have been raging debates about providing disclosure; i.e. tell your visitors you are receiving compensation. Inform visitors that the review, product or trip was given to you with expectations. Some have questioned why they need to do this. They feel it doesn't matter that they get stuff free or have streams of $10 to $50 coming their way. Ethics is not their concern, getting money and free stuff across the door and keeping their visitors. The money has priority with them. Some of the Parental bloggers are chalking the whole thing up to jealousy and interfering with their business interests. Special shout out to base level Internet marketers using blogs to sell their crap. Yeah, I want the FTC to visit some of those bastards. Not the ethical ones, just the scumbags. Many bloggers, myself included, want to know if you are on the take. Tell me upfront and I can make the decision to stick around, trust or take with a grain of salt. Don't do that and I find out you have been sucking at the PR/Advertising tap and I will be disappointed. The same way I was when the Washington Post tried to sell their journalists for cash for that elite party of DC's finest, magazine advertorials labeled in 1pt type and a whole host of video pr news releases that are masked as news on local television stations. If you have a commercial blog you have responsibilities. This is one of them.
