To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi ,

I see this news in Opera website :
http://my.opera.com/haavard/blog/2007/03/05/1

I think this is a good news for Theora Team and also a greater news if video
tag becomes true.

This extract of the website is incredible :
'One thing to keep in mind that adding native support for Theora in Opera
would only add about 300K to Opera's overall size! And I am sure that could
even be optimized to reduce it even further.'

Re: [videoblogging] The Case Against Advertising in Net Video

2007-03-02 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux
Hello,

Would it help if you could review which ads get placed in the video?

(I know some advertising networks allow you to review ads.)

  Recently methods of advertising in video have become active in
  development and implementation. Originally when I heard the rational
  for Ads in net videos from Revver, I thought it worthwhile. Provide a
  method for people making video on the net to gain revenue from their
  work. This would support net videomakers continuing their work. There
  had been entries on the yahoo videoblogging group and on blogs for Ads
  targeted to the audience and content of the video. Similar to Google
  showing Ads that try to relate to keyword searches; an Ad for Harley
  motorcycles could appear on a videoblog entry about a weekend
  motorcycle hog excursion with friends.

  Unfortunately, specifying include an Ad in my video on Revver, blip.tv
  and others means you can have a powerful, emotive video on the
  relationship to one's father followed by a upbeat commercial for Juicy
  Fruit gum. Or a irreverent video of doing a prank on someone followed
  by a commercial for the Heart Association. Now this problem probably
  just relates to the technicality of specifying categories for the Ad's
  relationships to video content and the amount of different Ads
  available. With time the correlation of Ads to video content and the
  viewership should have stronger matching.

  The question is why have Ads in videos on distributed networks.
  Traditionally, on a television set broadcast a advertisement had to
  exist within the video stream. No other location was provided for
  placement. However on the internet an Ad does not need to be in the
  video. It can be anywhere around the video on the web page. Either
  top, left, right, bottom or lower down the page. Now video on the net
  does not mean just a web page. It can be an iPod, mobile phone, Tivo,
  or even projected in a theatre film festival. All of these non-website
  screens can and probably will develop methods of displaying more than
  just a video stream. A future iPod, mobile phone, digital TV and
  theatre projector will be able to show more than just the video. Like
  the Opera super- and sub-titles projected separately from the
  performance, these screens will probably eventually have dynamic
  separate information areas where Ads can appear. Further with the
  usage of different screen ratios than 4x3 (16x9, etc.), space can be
  made available around the video to place Ads. This puts advertising in
  the video stream, but does not directly break up the video continuity.

  Google proved the failure of putting ads directly in searches. Flash
  Ads that pop-up and dance up over the content of web-pages send people
  away from sites. And Ads that interrupt the video, even at the end,
  will be found to be ineffective. They will either drive people away
  from watching the videos if at the start or middle or tend to not be
  watched if at the end. Ads placed around the video will work since
  people can choose to pay attention to the periphery of a video if the
  ad relates to their interest or ignore that area.

Re: [videoblogging] can i use digital camera for vblog ?

2007-03-02 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux
Hello,

If it can shoot video, then you can (theoretically) use it.

However... the question is do you want to use it?!

What you should be asking yourself is...

... is the video quality it produces good enough for you?

... is the memory it has sufficient for you?

... is the zooming something you can use well?

(There's probably other things to consider too.)


Ask youself that and you'll kow your answer.

Hello,

I understand what you are saying now.

On 3/2/07, Enric [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 The point is not which Ads are placed in videos, but that videos are
  interrupted with Ads.  I think some companies (new and old) developing
  new media tools are missing (sometimes intentionaly) the point of why
  people love pop-up blockers and ad blockers.   Why a clean minimal
  google search with unobtrusive text ads on the side is prefered to
  search engines that would put ads within search results.  Why flash
  ads that popped out of the page took away future page views.

  The distributed net empowers not only those making videos to make what
  they want, but those viewing to not view videos with ads that intrude
  in their video viewing.  It will not in the long run empower ad makers
  to find more intrusive ways to overlay ads over running video, create
  click ad regions and product placement.  Given the choice most will
  choose not to break up their video with ads, but to take the option to
  view related ads on the side of the video.

Re: [videoblogging] Myspace Will Censor You

2007-02-02 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux
Posted it on the Myspace InternetTV group :-)

BTW... wasn't Myspace blocking YouTube before.  (This isn't the first
time they've done that.)

  http://www.askaninja.com/node/2836

  Let me start off by saying we love all of our friends and fans that
  we've made through Myspace.

  But sometimes Myspace the company does some gross stuff that violates
  the spirit it was created under and the values of the Internet itself.

  Over the last few months there has been a lot of debate over Net
  Neutrality, which basically boils down to one company blocking access to
  to another companies servers in order to gain a business advantage. This
  debate has usually focused on the companies that charge for bandwidth
  like ATT, but recently Myspace has pioneered a new form -- blocking
  sites that users link to in their bulletins and profiles.

  Right now if you link to anything at a site like http://revver . com
  (remove the spaces) Myspace will delete the link. Try it. That sucks
  right?

  Revver is not the only site.  There are dozens of smaller video and
  photo sharing sites that they are doing this to.

  Why should you care?

  Ask A Ninja was created because we were in control of where we posted
  the videos. That's a big deal because if we're forced to put them on
  MySpace video then FOX could take the episodes and make money off of
  them without paying Douglas or me anything. Which isn't fair and takes
  away the incentive to create cool shows for you to watch.

  Why is this against Net Neutrality? Because videos from Myspace Video
  and Youtube are not effected. It's only these smaller, more innovative
  companies that haven't been sold for billions of dollars.

  Here's what you can do:

  Copy this bulletin. Repost it.  Blog about it.  Make Tom put up a little
  fix it bulletin saying he's sorry.

  Once you've reposted this, send a message to Tom
  (http://myspace.com/tomanderson) like this (or even better, write your
  own):

  I'm sending this message to request that MySpace stop blocking videos
  from sites like Revver. Choosing the video-sharing service that is right
  for me is very important and is why you built Myspace. What I like most
  about MySpace is that I can generally do what I want here. I like that
  Myspace is a relatively open platform where I can communicate with my
  friends (and promote my stuff) in all sorts of ways. I feel good about
  sharing videos from Revver because I know they respect copyright and
  look out for independent artists. Please bring back Revver!

Re: [videoblogging] The YouTube debate is over..........

2006-12-04 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux
Hello Heath,

What YouTube has done is called branding.  And they've done a good job of it.

Now... that doesn't mean that they've won.  That only means that
they are king right now.

Once upon a time AltaVista was the king of search engines.  When
most people said search the web... most people automatically assumed
you meant search the web with AltaVista.

Today... that's not the case.  Google is currently king of
search... and is synonymous with searching the web.

Want to be king... go on a branding campaign.  (And of course have
something at least descent to use.)

  Now, why do I say that?  A month or so ago I filmed some footage for

  do video and put stuff online, they know I do not use YouTube, that
  I have a vlog site, etc.

  Well I just put together a clip of flubs from the guy who was doing

  (because the name of the company and such was mentioned I did not
  want to upload it, don't relish getting warned/fired)  I showed it
  this morning and it killed but what was interesting was this.

  Everyone said, That needs to go on YouTube, this from guys and gals
  in age from 20 something to over 50, This needs to go on
  YouTubeNOT hey put it on your site or upload it to blip or

  YouTube is or has become a the standard for online video, I mean
  what else can you conclude?  Understand these are not techy people,
  yes they may be a little ahead of the curve but trust me, just

  So what does this mean?  To me it means the conversation on wheather
  YouTube is really vlogging or is here to stay, is a moot point.
  Yes you can become sucessful in vlogging or online video without YT
  but to the VAST majority of people if you aint on YT, then you aint
  doing online videoI don't want to say that, I don't want it to be
  true, but I am really beginging to think that it is true.

  Maybe I am wrong, I want to be wrong in some ways but I gotta say

for the web.
   
So what does this mean? To me it means the conversation on wheather
YouTube is really vlogging or is here to stay, is a moot point.
Yes you can become sucessful in vlogging or online video without YT
but to the VAST majority of people if you aint on YT, then you aint
doing online videoI don't want to say that, I don't want it to be
true, but I am really beginging to think that it is true.
   
Maybe I am wrong, I want to be wrong in some ways but I gotta say
based on my very informal test...the YouTube debate is over.

In 1999... I don't think the general public was really on the web

Back then, Broadcast.com was known by the people who were on the Web
at that time.

  To the average person, the one who knows nothing of RSS feeds,

  them if they have heard of YouTube?  I would bet it's half...(sure
  that is just a guess, I suppose I will have to go downtown with my

  That doesn't mean I think YouTube is the best place for videos, I
  don't, personaly I want people to come to my site.  But that's me,
  all I can do is one step at a time try and teach people the
  differance and why sites like Blip are better.

  But the average joe wants to turn on the tv and look at a guide and

   My comments were summarising some general sentiments that I seem to

   noticed rather than intended to point to anyone in particular.
  
   I would agree with Mike that there is a broader dialogue outside
  of
   YouTube which YouTubers who never leave the walled garden don't
  participate
   in.  But it's also true that there's a large and vibrant dialogue
  going on
   *within* YouTube which (I'm generalizing...).  Now, to be fair, a
  lot of
   that dialogue is YouTubers talking to other YouTubers about
  YouTubey things
   (as opposed to, say, videobloggers talking to video bloggers about
  video
   bloggy things...). But still.
  
   I guess having one foot in one camp and a toe dipped tentatively in
  the
   other (thanks in no small part to Blip.tv, about whom i cannot say
  enough
   etc.) I am just seeing what looks (to my superficial eyes) to
  be some
   small patches of itchy irony.
  
   As for the destination blog/vlog vs. the live journal blog
  analogy I
   agree that the 'top tier' blogs (in something of a self perpetuating
   system...) sit above the proletariat (ahem), and the same could be
  true for
   video blogs.   Would I like to migrate all my subscribers somewhere
  I could
   monetize my work? Sure.  Do I think, at this point, that there are
  enough of
   them, and that enough of them would follow to make a tactical
  withdrawal
   from YouTube worth my while?  Probably not.  Perhaps Malcolm
  Gladwell could
   identify the dozen people who would have to leave YouTube for a
  Tipping
   Point style collapse, but I fear I'm not one of them...
  
   Am I going to be tarred by the bush of YouTuber as my content
  migrates
   other places?  It may be too late for that.  Or it may not.
   One thing I think is interesting is that I read a lot about how the
  internet
   is increasingly invisible (ie taken for granted) by the current
   generation, with media distinctions essentially blurring.  And I'm
  reading
   here that, if anything, more media distinctions are what's called
  for. Hmmm.
  
   Meanwhile, I do actually sort of understand what an RSS feed does.
  I can't
   for the effing life of me figure out what feedburning it will do.

Re: [videoblogging] Virtual identity

Hey Loiez,

It look like Ziki is doing wildcard based advertising.

eBay does this alot too.

Basically, the way it works is that people can make ads where they put
the searched phrase in the ad.  So... someone can make an wild card ad
title like...

Buy ##PHRASE##

And then ##PHRASE## is replaced with whatever is searched for.  So, if
you searched for Polar Bears, then the ad title would become...

Buy Polar Bears

(Note... they probably don't use ##PHRASE## exactly... but do use
something like it.)


So... Google's wildcard advertising technology might be able to tell
if something is a person's name... and only show Ziki's wildcard ad
for that.

(Also... just to throw out a little more info... these wildcard ads
are usually sold at a very very cheap rate... since they usually
generate alot of garbage traffic for the advertiser... since they
usually only show up when there are no other ads to show.)

See ya

I can't remember where I was reading it.  I think it may have been our
a couple different books or papers... and if that's the case I'll have
to do some hunting... but... the particular example I was thinking
about when I wrote that was that of Proto-Germanic.

There's evidence to suggest that Proto-Germanic was a Creole language.
 And something else I read was arguing that the Germanic people's are
a hybrid of (at least) Celtic people and today what we call Iranian
people.

There were some other arguments citing similarities between the old
Aryan religion Zoroastrianisms... and Pre-Christian Germanic mythology

(But you say that around some people will have all sorts of political fallout.)

After reading some of that, I was actually wondering myself as to
whether there was a link between the runes and the ancient Aryan
wedge writing (that I can't remember the English name for right now).
But I don't know enough about runes to really even guess on it.

 Every linguistic anthropology class I've ever
  taken (and my brother's entire study of Near and Middle Eastern history (he

  No offence, but I'd definitely like to see the sources you're basing your

 I don't think going about this with the scientific card is going to

 So I was in that library last week; as usual, nobody asked for any type of
  identification or anything.  I've no complaint about that; I'm just noting
  the fact.  I've been in this library perhaps a hundred times since I
  graduated, and don't recall an occasion in which I was carded.  Perhaps
  the library is open to the public; I don't know.  Just an FYI for anyone
  interested here.

  This an interesting story, to say the least, and I appreciate your making us
  aware of it, Jay.  IMO, there's probably a bit of (or perhaps alot of)
  useful information we're not getting here.  I've seen some of the characters
  who hang out in this library (me, for example!) -- and on campus, in general
  -- and though the campus *feels* quite safe, there are enough homeless
  hanging around to have the UCPD patrol the library from time to time.  I'm
  not trying to generalize about the homeless here, many of whom I talk to
  regularly -- but some of my homeless friends are somewhat touched, so to
  speak.  Certainly they can be distracting to anyone trying to study -- if
  not downright unpleasant to be around.  (Take my schizophrenic fellow, calm
  on most days, punching ghosts on others.)

  What I think is important here is perhaps the most obvious: that this story
  demonstrates how personal video can fill in the gaps, to a certain extent,
  on many events -- but that does not imply that video records the Truth.

I'm not sure what you mean here.  How could that video show anything
but the truth.  (You don't believe it to be a fake do you?)

Are you saying that people might assume extra things not shown in the
video?  Or am I misunderstanding you?


See ya


  Video can certainly provide more information regarding an event, yet it can
  also dramatize and perhaps skew perception of the event.  By no means,
  however, would I advocate suppressing this time of evidence; I simply feel
  that it should be accepted with a grain of salt.  It's too easy to be swayed
  by video, allowing it to hold more weight than other evidence.

  My opinion,

  In fairness, we do not see what brought the police to the library.

Unfortunately that's not the only thing that will cause police to come

Looking forward... you could try backing up your database automatically.
(I'm very familiar with MySQL... so if you are using that I could help set
something up for it.)

Also... something else to consider is the backup stuff that was being

You use the a (for all) option.

(Just an FYI... hidden directories or files start with a period... with a
.)

So, you might type something like...

ls -alF


NOTE... these backups will likely NOT be on your server.  They will probably
be on a tape that's stored in a safe or a locker.

You'll have to ask them for the backup.


See ya

Hello Adam,

They probably have them on tape backup that's not accesable via any web
interface.  (Old tape backups are probably stored in a safe or a locker or
something.)

You'll probably have to ask them for it.  (Via e-mail or whatever issue
tracker they have.)

So... basically ask them for the backup for the day before the crash.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: I. Hate. Blogger.

2006-11-15 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux
Hello,

You know, another way of backing up the system in a good way would be if
you used some Semantic HTML in your Blogger template.  (I believe that it
would be actually pretty simple to do if you put them into your template.
So you template would automagically do this for you.)

So... for example, in the HTML code (using HTML class names or something)
you could mark what the title is, what the body is, what the video is, what
the thumbnail is, etc etc.

And then you could have some software that automatically runs and backs up
your stuff.  (Basically just scrapping it off the website without needing
access to the database.)

Actually... I could write the software pretty easily.  So... if any one is
interested... we could come up with a way of adding Semantic HTML to vlog
posts.  And I could write software for people to use to backup their stuff.
(It would be pretty easy actually.)

Let me know if anyone is interesting.


See ya

Re: [videoblogging] Youtube sends ceasedesist letter to techcrunch over video download utility!

2006-11-15 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux
Hello,

I believe that the Creative Commons people are going to have a big problem
with this.

(Not sure in if this is only in CC 3.0.  Or in the current CC too, but)
Prior to this YouTube was NOT violating the CC's anti-TPM -- the
anti-anti-circumvention clause -- because although it was difficult to save
and download CC'ed videos from YouTube, it wasn't impossible and wasn't
believed to be illegal.

See...
http://lists.ibiblio.org/pipermail/cc-licenses/2006-October/004297.html

With this however, YouTube would be violating the CC.

Not that it doesn't necessarily exist... but... you are more likely to find
Free and open source software in languages that have Free and open source
implementations.

That's part of the reason why there's so much Free and open source web
applications, like blogging software, written in PHP.  That's because the
PHP software is Free and open source. And runs on other Free and open source
software, like Apache and Linux.  Same with Python and Perl.

ASP.net is being implemented by the Mono Project 
http://www.mono-project.com/, but last I heard Mono's Free and open source
implementation of ASP.net was release ready.  So, without that... you're
probably not going to see very much Free and open source web applications
written in ASP.net (as compared to say PHP).

I don't think there's are any (active) attempts at implementing and Free and
open source version of ColdFusion, so... it's even worse than with ASP.net.

However, that does NOT mean none exists.

Here's some open source ColdFusion software...

http://cfopen.org/softwaremap/trove_list.php?form_cat=87

And look around here for some open source ASP.net software...

http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Project_Hosting


Also Do a search (using your favorite search engine) and you'll probably
come up with more stuff.  (Look for coldfusion opensource or asp

Hey Harold,

You are correct that (technically) Semantic HTML is part of the semantic
web.  (However... just to avoid confusion I should say... when many many
people talk about the Semantic Web, they are talking about RDF.  I am NOT
talking about RDF.  I'm talking about a part of the semantic web that has
nothing to do with RDF... just Semantic HTML.)

The first thing to realize is that Semantic HTML is just regular HTML.

You're just making use of features that were always there.  (You might
already be using them and not even know you are writing Semantic HTML.)

And BTW... semantics is just a fancy word for meaning.  If I were to
ask, what are the semantics of this?... I would be asking, what does this
mean?

So here's some Semantic HTML you are already probably familiar with

You can specify that a thing is a paragraph with the p element.  So for
example...

 p
This is a paragraph.  Simple, eh?!
 /p

(Anyone who has ever written something like that has written Semantic HTML.)

Also, if you are quoting something, you can use the blockquote element or
the q element.  For example...

p
John said, qhello Jane/q.
/p

If you want to add a bit more semantics, you could specify where John said
that.  Imagine if he said it online, maybe in a chat session or something,
and there is a log of it at http://example.com/chatlog/123;, then we could
write...

p
John said, q cite=http://example.com/chatlog/123;hello Jane/q.
/p

There are ALOT more HTML elements that give all sorts of semantics.  I won't
enumerate them all, but hopefully that gives you some idea of it.


So having said that... what if there is no HTML element to express what
you are trying to say?  What then?

Well, HTML has a way of dealing with this.  HTML provides the class
attribute for this.  For example, what if we wanted an HTML element to
specify an article.  There's no article element.  So we could do
something like this...

div class=article
Blah blah blah.
/div

(div and span are kind of blank' elements.  They're useful when you
want to kind of to make your own HTML elements.)

Now... some people might be thinking, wait... the class attribute is only
for styling.  I used to think that myself.  Well, it is true that the
class attribute can be used for styling.  BUT... it can be used for adding
semantics too -- for adding meaning too.  It's in the HTML spec!... and many
people use it that way.  (That's part of what the Microformats thing is all
about.)

And here's an example that appears on ALOT of webpages (according to a
Google report)...

div class=footer
Blah blah blah.
/div

Many many many people on the web specify the footer like that (because
there is no footer element).

Here's another example that's a bit more complex.   What if I wanted an
element that I could use to specify PHP code.  Well, there's the code
element.  But that doesn't say it is PHP code.  However, I could do
something like the following...

code class=php$x = file_get_contents(http://example.com/it.html
);/code

Here I used an existing non-blank HTML element and added a class name to it
to specify the semantics I wanted.

(That's kind of the basics of Semantic HTML.  If I didn't explain things
well enough and it's still a bit unclear... let me know and I can explain it
more.)


So getting back to our vlogging stuff.  We'd need to either use existing
HTML elements or use HTML class names to give meaning -- to give
semantics -- to vlog posts.

Things like: the title, the summary, the video(s), the thumnails, etc etc.

Basically we'd need to figure out what existing HTML elements people could
use and pick some class names for things where we need a bit more semantics
than HTML provides already.

That way a machines... like backup software... could find all the important
stuff.


Did I explain that well enough?

2006-11-06 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux
Hello,

On 11/6/06, Kent Nichols [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 I just received this from someone on YouTube:

 Dear Popular YouTuber,

 I'm a very popular viral video maker on YouTube, though my identity
 will remain anonymous for now. This letter seeks to enlighten and
 embolden you.

 I want you to stop giving your time and labor to YouTube for free.
 There's no reason YouTube should be bought for 1.65 billion dollars
 and you not receive a cent. There's no reason YouTube should be able
 to sell millions of dollars in advertising around your videos and you
 not receive a cent.

 Currently you are being exploited, which is not uncommon in American
 business practices; there exists a long history of worker exploitation
 here, from slavery, to factory worker abuses, to the constant battle
 for a livable minimum wage. In every situation, workers have had to
 fight for fairness and respect.

 Keep the following idea in your mind throughout this process: YouTube
 is nothing without the community and its leaders. You're more valuable
 than you can imagine.

 List of other relevant points:

 1. YouTube has never publicly acknowledged that original content
 creators on its site should be compensated for their work.
 2. They've never even hinted at it.
 3. And they never will because they believe that their business works
 best by receiving free labor to maximize profit (unless they're forced).
 4. They will earn profit on your back as long as they can
 5. YouTube is a for profit company – they don't exist foremost to
 serve the user, they exist foremost to earn profit
 6. Google has a notorious reputation of uneven relationships,
 basically asserting a bullish attitude in everything they do. You
 need us, we don't need you, would be a more accurate mission
 statement for them.
 7. YouTube will soon adhere to the same philosophy
 8. YouTube itself is not an emotional experience and you should feel
 no loyalty to them. You don't have a vested interest in their success.
 You may feel like you do – but you should not delude yourself. Most of
 the emotional connection you feel should be directed toward your fans
 and the original content creators whose videos you've loved.
 9. YouTube is just a name, a website on your monitor, and computer
 software and hardware.

 The following is an analogy that Chad Hurley once used: we are the
 stage for Internet media to display itself. This statement misleads
 and deceives. YouTube sells ads where a theatre owner sells tickets.
 The big difference is that a theatre owner takes those ticket sales,
 as well as concession and memorabilia sales and pays the performers.
 YouTube sells tickets, concessions, and memorabilia but keeps all the
 money for themselves.

 There are many more relevant points to be made here, but they can wait.

 The most important thing to know right now is that some partners and I
 are creating a video hosting site like YouTube that will share its
 revenue with you/the community/original content creators. The main
 difference between YouTube and us is that they are founded on
 exploitation where we are founded on fairness and equality. We put
 your success first and will only make money after you do.

 This will include revenue from click ads, impression ads, special
 promotions, co-branding, commercials, product placement, etc. In other
 words, you will be rewarded from every revenue source the company has.
 And rightly so, as this entire phenomenon is about you. Sadly,
 somewhere along the way YouTube made this about them.

 And make no mistake, we will be no Revver. We have an interface and
 functionality that is better than YouTube's. We have many, many
 friends in the media world that are partnering with us, thus you will
 be allowed to post clips of your favorite shows and music.

 For now, we ask that you make no changes to your practices. Simply
 respond to this email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Kool... people are using the name NewTube :-)

Include your
 user name, your real name, your e-mail address, and a very brief
 statement confirming that you agree that YouTube is exploitative and
 that you will move your efforts to a new site that is founded on fairness.

 Also, it is imperative that you don't share this letter or any of its
 contents with anyone. Our collective success depends on it.

 THE rise of the web transformed hypertext—which allows readers to

 obscure concept in computer science to a familiar, everyday
 technology. Might hypervideo—which lets viewers click on a moving
 image to call up a related clip—be on the verge of a similar
 transformation? This nascent development, also called
 video-hyperlinking, makes it easy to link together segments of online

I did notice that you use rel-enclosure in your posts, so Feedburner
should be picking those up and turning them into RSS
enclosure's. But it isn't.

So my guess is that you need to configure Feedburner a bit to do that.

I use it to generate nicer archive pages on my blog so readers can seewhat types of enclosures are included before clicking on. Example: URL:

 And not just video.They don't even have to contain any video.) Thus, another means of semantics is needed.I disagree. It is enough to know that you're looking at OGG content.
Content can then be handed off to the player application.In my case (with my _javascript_ thing) everything is done in browser. What is does is give each a that points to a video an onclick handler. (When the link to the video is clicked, it creates a DHTML player to play the video, instead of just going to the video file.)
In my case, simply handing things off to the player was NOT a possibility. I needed to be able to determine which a's pointed to a video and which didn't. rel-enclosure wasn't enough (for reasons I described earlier in this thread). The a's type attribute wasn't enough (for reasons I described earlier in this thread). So I used class-video (in the style of SMIL's video element).

Re: [videoblogging] Idea: New microformat: rel=media:thumbnail

2006-05-30 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux



Hello Joshua,I think that for most vloggers, they won't bother adding semantic HTML (like rel-enclosure, class-video, or anything) unless they get something else out of it. (Or unless it comes out of some tool.)
I've been working on a _javascript_ thing that creates a little DHTML player if you use class-video. For example...a class=video href="" type=application/ogg.../a
So, people who would use my _javascript_ thing would be incentivized to add a class-video so that the DHTML player works. (That of course would have the added advantage of letting other software understand what is and isn't a video.)
But that assumes the vlogger has the skills to do the HTML coding (to add the semantic HTML and bring in the _javascript_ thing).Alternatively, the tools vloggers use to create posts could automagically produce the appropriate semantic HTML.

I only wish people were so consistent and reliable. Truth is thatthere is vast inconsistency in the wild.Many people use text links to point to videos, sometimes they usespecial play button icons to link to videos (not exactly a
thumbnail). Sometimes people link to an HTML page with the mediaembedded and somtimes they just embed the media and do not use animage to link to it. In practice relEnclosure is rarely, if ever used.We run into all sorts of problems like this trying to parse HTML
descriptions when we aggregate feeds on FireAnt.tv.I don't think adding additional semantic HTML attributes would helpmuch either. Often the bloggers who post with strange HTML conventionsaren't the type of people who know much about HTML. I certainly
wouldn't expect them to grok a Microformat like rel=media:thumbnail... but then perhaps broad acceptance is not really the goal of thisproposal anyway.-JoshOn 5/30/06, Andreas Haugstrup

Re: [videoblogging] Idea: New microformat: rel=media:thumbnail

 I think that for most vloggers, they won't bother adding semantic HTML (like rel-enclosure, class-video, or anything) unless they get something else out of it.(Or unless it comes out of some tool.)Absolutely! Its very important to show that you can *do* stuff with
semantics. That's why we support the image thumbnail format onFireAnt.tv the way that Andreas described it with the hopes ofencouraging people to post images of their videos...However, its still early days, and I think the tools for supporting
such standards are still very new. Witness the recent issues withTechnorati tags during Videoblogging Week. Even though its astandard there still seems to be much chaos andnon-interoperability.
That's not to say that these things won't grow into something moretangible in the future... I certainly hope so, that's why I'm doingthese things. I've been working on a _javascript_ thing that creates a little DHTML player if you use class-video.For example...
 a class=video href="" type=application/ogg.../aWhy not go with the existing Microformat, rel=enclosure ?
As far as I can tell, rel-enclosure conveys a totally different meaning than class-video.rel-enclosure essentially says the thing, at the end of this link, is attached to this document (that the rel-enclosure is contained within).
It does NOT say play it. It does NOT say it is a video. And it does NOT even say prefetch it.Consider this example...a rel=enclosure href=""
.../aThere's a rel-enclosure there, but this is a PDF. Certainly we would NOT want to try to play this as a video.You might say, but I know this is a PDF,... of course I'm not going to try and play it as a video.
But, Now, what if we didn't put an extension on our file, and instead we had...a rel=enclosure href="">What would we do then? It is still a PDF, but we can't immediately tell.
So, we might try using the a's type attribute, and have something like this...a rel=enclosure href="" type=application/pdf.../a
But is the type attribute enough. If we had something like any of these, then I'd say yes...a rel=enclosure href="" type=video/mpeg.../a
a rel=enclosure href="" type=video/3gpp.../aa rel=enclosure href="" type=video/jpeg.../a
But this depends on have all videos have a MIME type of form video/*. But this is NOT always the case. Some videos do NOT have a MIME type of the form video/*. For example...
a rel=enclosure href="" type=application/ogg.../aapplication/ogg is the MIME type for Ogg. Ogg, like QuickTime, Matroska, 3GPP, and ASF is container formats. And you can put all sorts of things in them. (And not just necessarily video.) Like text, audio, images, and video too. But a particular file does NOT have to have any video at all.
Now, you could claim that videos that don't have a MIME type of the form video/* are messed up and have done something wrong. However, this is a reality that we have to live with it.And eventually, you come back to the question of,... how do you show a link in an HTML file points to a video. (And given you don't see anything wrong with my reasoning and logic) we need something like class-video to show it.
So I suggest class-video.See ya-- Charles Iliya Krempeaux,

From: http://microformats.org/wiki/rel-enclosure-By adding rel=enclosure to a hyperlink, a page indicates that thedestination of that hyperlink is intended to be downloaded and cached.
That doesn't reflect what me and others discussed on the Microformats mailing list. I'd give you links to the e-mails in the archive... but I'm too tired right now :-) (And yeah, I know, I saw you over there too. Particularly regarding the rel-payment thing for Atom.)
(That should be corrected. Although I'm sure we'll get into an long argument about it over there :-) )
E.g. with the following hyperlink:a href="" href="http://homepage.mac.com/kevinmarks/wwdc2005.mov">http://homepage.mac.com/kevinmarks/wwdc2005.movrel=enclosureWWDC 2005 Keynote with chapters/a
the author indicates that the movie should be downloaded.-Doesn't matter whether the link points to a video or a PDF (shouldit?). The type can be specified with the type attribute, or using
correct Mime-types on the server (preferred).Like I mentioned before (and as you mention later), a MIME type is NOT always sufficient to tell if something is a video or not. This is because not all videos have a MIME type of the form video/*.
One example is Ogg (application/ogg). Although container formats in general will have this problem. (Some container formats have video/* forms though.)Also, systems that shunt themselves via the web will also have this problem. For example, consider this BitTorrent link...
http://example.com/show.torrentIt's MIME type is application/x-bittorrent. Now let's say it contains one video: 
video.mpegNow consider this URI that refers to a video coming from a torrent...http://example.com/show.torrent#video.mpeg
Note that I'm using a URI fragment to access what's inside the torrent.I think that this type of thing will continue.Also, given that we are trying to put semantics in the HTML it would suggest to me that keeping a list of non- video/* video MIME types is antithetical to the goals here. Having such a list takes the semantics out of the HTML.
I would stick with established Microformat class attributes ratherthan create new ones and thus more deviation and noise.
Which Microformat class attributes would you suggest?
Seems like application/ogg is quite a fringe case (not even sure ifits generally playable in the browser, unless you are playing it witha VLC browser plugin... which is also pretty rare).
I've found that VLC is actually pretty common. (At least in BC, Canada. Everyone seems to use it here. Things may be different globally though.)But I think the whole topic of videos having MIME types NOT of the form video/* is an important one to deal with. (Shunting things via new protocols seems to be out of favor due to the nature of the underlying operating systems. Instead, shunting seems to be done via MIME types now. And this will lead to new non- video/* video MIME types.)
You could probably modify your _javascript_ to filter based on acceptedlist of type attributes including video/* and application/ogg and
perhaps a handful of other embeddable video formats that useapplication/*... not sure what those might be?My motivation for class-video is to 
learn fromSMIL. SMIL has a video element. Thus class-video copies that. (This is the Microformat process. Either observe what being done in the wild with HTML and create a 
semantic HTML specification -- a Microformat -- for it. Or mimic XML paradigms out there. In this case I'm mimicking the XML paradign of SMIL.)See ya

Re: [videoblogging] Copying YouTube Videos

2006-05-26 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux



Hello,That could change though. (Right now it's to YouTube's advance to allow it.)It similar to how Microsoft turns a blind eye towards pirating of their software when it helps them spread or maintain use of their products (like Windows, Office, etc). Especially when it helps keep out competitors. (For example,... in the IT world you often hear the arguement... why use OpenOffice when you can pirate MS Office.)
But, from time to time, they'll start enforcing the rights Copyright law gives them and demanding payment (from government, businesses, and others for pirated software).And then, shortly after that, they turn a blind eye again.
They go through cycles. It's almost like farming a crop :-)Microsoft is obviously not the only one who does this. Many many groups do. (They're just an easy example that most people are probably familiar with.)

Hello Everyone,

I'm a student at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, CA.

I'm interested in making web episodic shows. I was wondering if
anyone here has any good examples of current web episodic shows. I am
working on getting my own vlog up as the instructions on the main page
of this group suggests. I hope to get my films up so others can see
my work. Are there any other aspiring filmmakers here? I'd love to
watch your work. I'm of the mindset that one can never stop learning
and there is no better teacher than one's peers.

Thank you,

Says you. :-P
  
Going back and forth on definitions is interesting debate, but I'm
still not willing to say Net Neutrality is about government regulation
of the Internet
  
  
I'm still saying No, its about Government protection of the Internet.


This seems weasely. Why not admit that it is regulation for the Good
Cause of Protecting the Internet from Evil?That then gets back to my original point Which can be said with the saying...The road to hell is payed with good intentions.
Or also said with what I believe is a (non-obvious or non-intuitive) equivalent saying...The ends don't justify the means.I know people have good intentions (in wanting governments to regulate the Internet to prevent a Tiered Internet). But, a belief in freedom should guarantee it for everyone, and not just ourselves. (Regardless of whether we agree with them or like what they are doing.)
My dilemma is that I believe forcibly taking away someone else's freedom is morally wrong. (You may or may not agree. However, at the moment, for this argument, it's not relevant. What is relevant is that I believe it.) I believe this to be part of morality.
As I was growing up, one thing I noticed with some people who claimed they had morals was that they only seem to have it some of the time. They only had them when things were NOT difficult. They only had them when they were NOT tested. They only had them when things were NOT tough.
But when it really came down to it, and when things got difficult, when they got tested, when things got tough, they ended up doing the things they said they'd never do. (To me, that meant they had no morals.)
To me, it most important to have morals especially with things a difficult; especially when we are tested; and especially when times are tough.To me, this is one of those tough and difficult times.I do NOT want to see a Tiered Internet. However, I must keep my morals. And given I believe that forcibly taking away someone else's freedom is morally wrong. Then I must also believe that regulating the Internet (even to prevent a Tiered Internet) is morally wrong too.
I can not do otherwise and still be a moral person.I know this is not what people want to hear. I know that this results in a scary situation. And I know it doesn't seem fair. (But who said life was fair?!)
To me, other methods must be used to prevent a Tiered Internet. I was hoping to get a discussion going on what other things we could do. (But it doesn't look like this conversation is going in that direction.)
See ya

Another interesting debate on definition would be The People ... I
guess I'm not willing consider huge corporate conglomerates as The
People ... and therefore refuse to consider Net Neutrality as a
regulation of The People.

I would argue that you are leaving out a key point  forcibly taking away someones rights is a VERY different thing from from making a law that prevents that someone from infringing on an others rights.
Notice that I said freedom and not rights.I believe that forcibly taking away someone else's freedom
 is morally wrong.This -- the difference between freedom and rights -- is a very important distinction. (And I think that most people don't really realize how important it is.)
Freedom is something you either have or something that someone has taken away from you. (Also, as a side note, you have liberty when you have freedom.)Rights are something granted to you.
Now, a right could try to embody a freedom. (And this has caused some people to use the word right and freedom as if they were synonyms -- as if they meant the same thing. When, in fact, they have completely different meanings.)
But often rights do NOT embody a freedom.(For example, patent law [which was created to promote the sciences and useful arts] grants people rights to a state enforced monopoly. But patent law does NOT embody a freedom. In fact, it takes away freedom. The people who created patent law had good intentions . They wanted to promote the sciences and useful arts. However, the enforcement of patent law still 
forcibly takes away people's freedom.)(As I mentioned somewhere else in this conversation) I find it better to rewrite sentences that use the word rights in terms of the word freedom. It makes things much much clearer.
So,... if you'll indulge me... think about what is being suggested to be done to the (people at the) Telco and Cable cartels. And think about it in terms of freedom instead of rights.
Are they having their freedom taken away? (Forget about if you like or hate these Telco and Cable cartels. Forget about if you like or hate how they are trying to make a Tiered Internet. And forget about the rights the government grants you, and just consider freedom. Are they having their 
freedom taken away?)I think they are. (You of course will need to decide this for yourself.)Now consider this. Is it morally wrong to forcibly take away someone else's 
freedom?I believe it is. (You of course will need to decide this for yourself.)(If you don't believe this, then fair enough,... but then we should probably have another discussion because believing 
that forcibly taking away someone else's freedom is NOT morally wrong means that you MUST also believe that slavery is NOT morally wrong.)
If you do in fact believe that forcibly taking away someone else's freedom is morally wrong, and you believe that the (people at the) Telco and Cable cartels are having their 
freedom forcibly taken away, then you must also believe that this is morally wrong (regardless of whether you like them or what they are doing).
See yaIs it wrong to make a law that prevents discrimination against a group of people just because that law would remove the right to have a discriminatory school or business?
Short answer... Yes, I believe such laws are wrong.Long answer... it is actually the enforcement of that law that could potentially be a wrongful act. Basically, it depends on what is or isn't done. Did someone have their freedom 
forcibly taken away from them. If so, then something morally wrong was done.But, I do understand that there were good intentions in creating laws like these. However, other methods should have been used. (I probably sound like a broken record but) The road to hell is payed with good intentions. And, The ends do NOT justify the means.
See yaMaking a law that takes away the right to act in a way that violates someone elses right ... isn't an immoral regulation. And I'd argue its not taking away a right at all ... its protecting one.

Re: You can't save Internet Freedom by taking it away [was: Re: [videoblogging] Re: Lobbyists Trying to Destroy Internet Freedom?]

2006-05-19 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux
 or something that someone
has taken away from you. (Also, as a side note, you have liberty
when you have freedom.)Rights are something granted to you.
(NOTE: I'm not trying to define freedom or right here. I'm only trying to communicate important properties for each that are relevant for this discussion.)Now, a right could try to embody a freedom. (And this has
caused some people to use the word right and freedom as if they
were synonyms -- as if they meant the same thing. When, in fact, they
have completely different meanings.)
But often rights do NOT embody a freedom.(For
example, patent law [which was created to promote the sciences and
useful arts] grants people rights to a state enforced monopoly. But
patent law does NOT embody a freedom. In fact, it takes away
freedom. The people who created patent law had good intentions . They
wanted to promote the sciences and useful arts. However, the
enforcement of patent law still forcibly takes away people's freedom.)So,... getting back to what you said.You mentioned: the freedom to be heard. (I think what you really meant was the right to be heard. But assuming you didn't)
So, Please give me an example where something is being done to YOU. Is someone from these communication cartels taping your mouth shut (when you don't want them to) to prevent you from speaking? Are they forcibly doing something else to YOU? If not, they have NOT forcibly taken away your freedom.
Others can stop you from being heard without doing anything morally wrong. It may suck. But that doesn't make it morally wrong.This should be a wake up call us. (Not a rally to regulate) We should NOT have it so cartels control the Internet. We should make it so this can NOT happen. (Or at the very least, make it so it is very very difficult to happen.)
Perhaps the Internet should be like the roads.Alternatively, Where are these fire optic wires that make up the backbones for the Internet. Are they under people's homes? Is there some specific law that gives them the legal right to do this. Let's get rid of that law. (The telcos and cable companies will completely loose their business in this case.)
You also mentioned: the freedom to be informed. (Same thing as what I said for the freedom to be heard. Sorry for being lazy and not arguing it out; it's late Friday, and I'm getting tired :-) )
You also said: aren't there any more rights worth fighting for that protect the freedom of real live breathing people. Like I said, I'm concerned about freedom. (Rights are a completely different concept. Rights have nothing to do with morality... although sometimes people try to embody moral concepts with rights... but more often they don't.)
Also (as I already mentioned) I never said corporations should have freedom. Corporations are NOT people. (Regardless of whether people call them artificial people or legal people or whatever... they are still NOT people.) Now, the people at these corporations (and cartels) should have freedom too (even if some of them are shitheads).
You also said: or does freedom only apply to property and profit these days. The answer is NO, freedom applies everywhere. And that is my dilemma. I am applying it everywhere. And because of that, whether I like it or NOT, regulating the Internet is morally wrong because it forcibly takes away people's freedom.

Re: You can't save Internet Freedom by taking it away [was: Re: [videoblogging] Re: Lobbyists Trying to Destroy Internet Freedom?]

2006-05-19 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux



Hello,I think we've gotten as far as we are going to with this argument :-)However, regarding the part about... believing 
that forcibly taking away someone else's freedom is NOT morally wrong means that you MUST also believe that slavery is NOT morally wrong.
 Just to point out one thing,... because I think
you misunderstood what I was trying to say. I do NOT think you believe
that slavery is OK. I think that it may be the case that what you
believe is inconsistent. (I.e., you believe something that logically makes slavery OK, but don't realize it.) In other words, you have a contradiction in your beliefs.For example, I would be inconsistent (and I would have a contradiction) if I
believed that the consumption of ANY narcotic was morally wrong, but I
thought consuming alcohol was OK. The legality of the narcotic is
irrelevant. (I've heard this inconsistency from people alot.)If you want to take this off-list I'll lay out the argument for you. 
(At this point, it's probably becoming way too off-topic for the VideoBlogging mailing list.)But essentially, the argument is just logical deduction. If you're familiar with formal mathematical proofs or things like axiomatic logic, then this will probably be pretty familiar.
Also, it's not a horrible thing to be inconsistent. (The only horrible thing is actually realizing you have one and not doing anything about it to resolve it. Of course, it's actually YOU that has to realize it. And not just have someone tell you you have one.)
I find myself in that situation from time to time. (Often after long heated arguments with others.) And although finding that I've been inconsistent in my beliefs is unsettling. Once I find that I've been inconsistent, I strive to find a way to resolve this. (And my beliefs must change.)

And if you're not with us you're against us. Its not that
black or white, and presenting an issue with all sorts of grey and
saying if you don't believe one polar extreme here then your must also

irresponsible logic that's leads to dark dark chapters in human history.

Forcibly taking someone freedom is GENERALLY bad, yes. Certainly
there are no shortage of examples where forcibly taking someones
freedom is about as bad and evil as something can get. But that
doesn't mean its a black or white issue. 

Convicting and locking someone up who cant seem to stop himself from
killing and raping ... I'm ok with that. Did we take away his
freedom by putting him jail? Yes. Was it morally wrong? Not
to my mind. Clearly there are examples of times when limiting
freedom is an acceptable action within a society that believes in laws
and government.

Removing a freedom to harm someone ... or removing a freedom to
actively deny someones constitutionally granted rights ... that's
something that most people have accepted within a society that believes
in laws and government.

Now you can make an argument for anarchy and wild-west style justice ... but lets save that for another thread.

Do I think its morally wrong to make a law that prevents corporations
from actively denying The People from the very rights that legal system
is supposed to grant us ... no I do not. And that does NOT mean I
favor slavery. (and here I was the one being accused of making
outrageous arguments).

  Please speak for yourself Ron. I've been studying this

  is no single correct point of view here. I'm amazed at the number of 
  misconceptions put forth.For me, this is just one set of big corps 
  against another and consumers are in the middle. I imagine that the 
  governments will just complicate things up as usual. Personally, 
  I don't trust Google, Microsoft, etc. any more or less than I don't trust 
  ATT, Comcast, etc. Both sides present views slanted in their 
  favor. Both dis-inform and mis-inform. Again, speaking for me, I 
  see little difference in either SaveTheInternet and HandsOffTheInternet.

I'll have to educate myself more on this topic to avoid putting my foot in my mouth, but I would guess that it was corporations that created the copyright need in the first place...out of desire to protect thier pocketbooks, to hordeand in a perfect world we wouldn't need to be fearful of someone else gaining from our work.
Read this for a brief history of Copyright:http://slaw.ca/2006/04/25/publishers-and-copyright/
See yaBut these days I can see some sort of protection people may want to protect the integrity of what ever message they are trying to convey with the contect they create. The no-derivs cc thing gives people that ability. They know that how ever they put their words, images, sounds together will be kept intactand therefore so will their message.

Hello Charles,I'm not sure what your point is.You can certainly make the argument that copyright law ismorally wrong, I don't agree it is, but even if you and others believe it is so what.Are you advocating violating copyright law as some sort of protest?
Sorry for the confusion.First... No, I am not telling people to violate copyright law.I'm advocating Copyleft. I am suggesting that people use things like the Creative Commons Share-A-Like license(s). And the GNU GPL license.
Copyleft in a way let's you opt-out of copyright law. In a way it makes things as if there was no copyright law.
The fact is that there are plenty of laws that people would consider morally wrong yet wedecide to follow them because we live in a civil society. If you don't agree with them workto change them.I think current copyright law has a lot of problems but I'm not convinced that the concept
of copyright law is morally wrong...it's an interesting philosophical question but I don'tsee it having much practical for videoblogging unless the laws radically change.I guess I didn't make what I was trying to say very clear.
I was agruing that Copyright law was morally wrong. And suggesting that those who agree with that use Copyleft licenses for their works.See ya

. (Refer to the USA Constitution and the following URL for proof of this: 
http://slaw.ca/2006/04/25/publishers-and-copyright/ )#3: History has shown that people were able to make a living without Copyright law.
COPYLEFTFor those interested, there's a concept called Copyleft that, in a way, makes it as if Copyright law does NOT exist.
Essentially, given that most of us live in countries where copyleft law is enforced against us, Copyleft has the effect of letting people choose to opt-out of copyright law. Copyleft does this by essentially uses Copyright law against itself.
For examples of Copyleft The Creative Commons' ShareALike concept is Copyleft. And the GNU GPL license is Copyleft. (The GNU GPL license is what most of that Free and Open Source software out there is licensed under.)

Hello Matt,(I might have misread what you wrote, but)While I agree with your assessment that Microsoft Windows is one big security risk, and that using it means that one should block all incoming ports just to be a bit safer... I do NOT agree that this should be done in general.
One of the things I've hatted the most, about today's ISP's, is that they do NOT allow you to become true node on the Internet. Being a true node on the Internet implies you can be both client and server. Which means that you need to allow incoming ports.
My 2cents :-)See yaOn 5/12/06, LeanBackVids.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
My only point is that most Internet users should be disallowingincoming traffic on all ports.As soon as you open port 80 (http) on
a machine, it creates a point of entry for a hacker.The problem is compounded by opening ports on a personal machine,which most likely contains sensative data.On a side note... If you are a Windows user, I highly recommend these

   Anyhow, it's not exactly vlogging software but it makes it very,   very easy for users to create and host a video web site right from   their own computer. It takes care of the optimization,
 transcoding,   etc and turns your PC into a server of your video, photo and   audio/podcast content. We are currently distributing for free. We're going to be adding
   some hosted support in the future so it won't require an always- on   connection. BTW, up-pipe limitations and firewall issues are handled   quite nicely with some smart caching/proxying on the network end.
 If you're interested, check it out at www.pixpo.com. I'd love to hear any feedback. Like I mentioned, it's not
 exactly   vlogging software at this point, but it may morph more in that   direction as the product matures (more room for text, comments +   better organization).  
   In the meantime, have a look at my personal page (being served from   my laptop here at work):   http://liveweb.pixpo.com/robc-work/index.htm
 Definitely check out the Loading Ready Run channel. It's done by   some local college guys who have been doing a video a week for a   year now:

allSuitable for all devices.and rel can, it seems, be anything one wants it to be.Yeah. Although you should make your rel something that makes sense.If this is on the homeage of your blog or vlog, then use rel=alternate. If you are on a post of your blog or vlog, then use rel=home.
I know that some people and software are using rel=alternate everywhere. I think wordpress, typepad, and some other blogging software WRONGLY does this.I used rel=banana just to push the point :-) (That there's more than just rel=alternate out there... and you should use what's appropriate... and not wrongly put rel=alternate everywhere.)
Can one use multiple link statements to differentiate between,say, text and video feeds?
Yes.In fact, that's one of the really important use cases for the link element.
Which of the above would one use for text? screen?Yes, screen would be for your text feed.Although, if you don't put a media attribute, then it automatically defaults to screen. (So you don't have to add media=screen) So... most the feed link's out there are media=screen by default (even though they don't use the media attribute).
Presumably one could use the title attribute to specify further details?
The title is meant to be human readable. (And machines, like your web brower, should completely ignore it.)You can add machines readable to the media attribute, the type attribute, the rel or rev attribute, and the class attribute.
(Remember, the class attribute is NOT just for CSS styling,... it's for semantics too.)See ya

Re: [videoblogging] Questions: RSS, PSP, 3g, IP ...

2006-05-07 Thread Charles Iliya Krempeaux



Hello,On 5/7/06, wazman_au [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
I have a bunch of questions and thought I'd bundle them together, asthey all centre around customising my RSS feed depending on theviewer's requirements.I'm using WordPress, but not the latest version 'cos I've made lots
of tweaks and for the moment I'm happy with it.1) Is it possible to have WordPress decide dynamically to send out adifferent version of the feed, according to what client the user has,eg iTunes, Ant? 
That depends on how much PHP knowledge you have. If you've you've got enough, you could just (re)write the feed component of Wordpress and get it to do whatever you want.
Stattraq tells me what client people use, but I don'tknow how this data is collected or how to use it.Probably from the User-Agent HTTP header the client sends to the server.
I imagine the abovecould be done by some sort of PHP script that would process the above
info, then call and spit out the corresponding feed. Sadly I knownothing of PHP.Hmmm... then the answer is probably no.
As an example, I might want to send out a .mov file for anyone who'susing iTunes or QuickTime, and a straight MPEG-4 file for all others.Or I might like to tailor the content of a video depending on thecountry of the viewer - is it possible to use their IP address to do
this?Yes, you can tell what country a person comes from based on their IP address. (Well, most of the time anyways. Sometime many many people from different countries share the same gateway, which has one or a handlful of IP addresses.)
Here's what I use alot: http://ip2nation.com/It's completely Free! And is formated for MySQL.(Of course, you got to do some PHP coding, or some other kind of coding to make use of it.)
2) Are there any good directories out there for users of the PSP whoare looking for podcasts, or free video content? I've found a bit of
info about 'PSPcasting' but it seems pretty fragmented at the moment.video podcasting and PSPcasting are really the same thing. (It goes by many other names too!)However,... the thing to note is that iPod can only play M4V files; and PSP's can only play MP4 files.
So,... basically you have to check each site to see what the publisher is producing. (Some produce only one of these. Some produce both. And some produce neither.)Just as a side note, you may want to consider producing Ogg Theora in addition to whatever else you are producing...
http://maketelevision.com/log/why_ogg_theora_matters_for_internet_tv
3) What about directories for 3g content (i.e. playable on 3g mobilephones)? Has anyone experimented with providing 3g versions? Did youget much of a response? How/where did you distribute?To be honest, I'm not really sure what formats are commonly supported on phones right now.
I believe there is a container format which (confusingly) goes by the name 3GPP. (Just for comparison, other container formats include Ogg, QuickTime, and Mastroska.)However, the more important question is what goes inside this 3GPP container format. 
I.e., what codec is being use? (That I don't know.)To be honest, I don't like the whole 3GPP thing. It's basically a replacement to the Internet where you have to pay for each and everything you do.
You want to send a text message -- the equivalent of an e-mail -- you have to pay. You want to make a call, you have to pay. You want to watch a video, you have to pay. And don't even think about setting up the 3GPP equivalent of a website... or you'll really have to pay.
Honestly, I want wireless phones that hook onto the Internet (and NOT the cellular, GSM, or 3GPP networks).See ya--

Hello,I can't find where I read this (or else I'd credit the author), but when trying to talk to these kind of people, e-mails don't work. They're too easily delete.(Snail) mail works better. But what's best is to call them.
When calling them, be polite but be firm about your concerns. Get the names of everyone you talk to and record it and the date when you talked to them. Once you've expressed your concerns, ask the person for an answer. If the can't give you an answer, then ask to talk to someone who can. If no one can give you an answer, then ask them to call you back when they have an answer.

I wonder if it would be valuable to tag all our Save The Internet related videos. It would be

What do you (everyone) think? Is i worth it? If it is ... would we tag them 'netneutrality' or 'savetheinternet' ... or what??

Re: [videoblogging] feed questions

hi,I just launched a vlog at www.thejokeproject.com. first off i'd love to hear what you all think,but I also have a question about feeds.I've created qt and windows media files, as well as mp4's for ipod compatable versions. I've
successfully set up a feed for itunes with the mp4 file enclosures. But now I am wondering if Ialso have to set up 2 other (completely separate) feeds (1 for the qt's and 1 for the windowsfiles)? Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,Certainly, one way you could handle this is to create a seperate RSS feed for each type of video you have. (I.e., one RSS feed for your QuickTime videos. Another for your WMV videos. And yet another for your MP4 videos.)
Alternatively, you could create a single Atom feed, which would contain enclosure links for all your video files. (Not sure if iTunes supports Atom yet, so you may have to keep a seperate feed for iTunes even with this.)
Or, use RSS with the Media RSS extension, and create a single Media RSS feed which would contain enclosures for all your video files. (Again, like with Atom, I don't think iTunes supports the Media RSS extension, so you may have to keep a seperate feed for iTunes even with this.)
Personally, I prefer using Atom. (But the choice is yours.)See ya--

USA Today articleand cosidering some of the dicussion that was generated by the article on Josh, I found it interesting.  








  To be honest, I'd rather not have anything or anyone take away my or anyone else's freedom of speech.Doesn't matter what you say or what you talk about, and no matter how distasteful it is to others. (Freedom of speech means anything can be said at any time.)
Things like slander, liable, and trade secret law just produce a chilling effect and allow others to take away your freedom of speech. You either have freedom or you don't. (And I'd rather have it.)(There are some other laws that take away one's freedom of speech, but I've found that whenever me or others point these out, people tend to have a very emotional reaction and it turns into a flame war. So I won't bother here.)
Oh,... and I really like that quote from AristotleWe are what we repeatedly do. - Aristotle(It's too bad those Yahoo! News articles disapear after a while, or I'd bookmark that.)

I'm saying that freedom of speech is the freedom to say anything you want at any time.Now the law defines it differently. And constantly changes it's definition of it. But I'm not talking about the law... just talking about actual freedom. I think it's important to make the distrintion between legal definitions and definitions.
The first we can agree to disagree on, that's a matter of opinion. 
That's fair.Ibelieve that certain types of speech should be restricted
(Misappropriation of name or likeness for example). The latter is justwrong. Freedom of Speech has never included a carte blanche to sayanything.Well, what the USA's government calls freedom of speech never included that. But I think that by the definition of the words freedom and speech in the dictionary, it would include that.
(I disagree with the USA government's law and say then that there actually isn't freedom of speech. But,... I'm not trying to get into an argument here.)
Libel and slander restrictions has existed well before freedomof speech was ever invented as a concept, and there's a long history ofcertain types of speech being restricted (some worse than others; seditionacts being pretty bad, fighting words making more sense).
Hmmm,... I think you are talking about what the USA government defines as freedom of speech. I guess I should mention that I'm not American. I'm Canadian.Also, I don't really think we're arguing over the same thing. I think you're talking about legal definitions... where (I guess you could say) I'm talking about dictionary definitions.
I agree that the USA's legal definition of freedom of speech never included any of that. (And that's fine.) But I (personally) want real freedom.See ya
