 So, do you agree when I say that there were no many long-lasting videoblogs 
 just short-dated experimental ones between 2000 and 2004?

This post doesnt discuss individual people, but it does go over
technical/commercial landscape of online video:

[videoblogging] Re: German vloggers before 2005 -- Adam Kontras

Hi Jay,

thanks for your answer. Actually, there were and still is the videoblog of Adam 
Kontras http://4tvs.com/. He already had started in 2000! But he seems to be 
the only one with a classic videoblog in those early days (...not to mention 
especially German videoblogs, I see).

I spoke with Greenhorn (Ingvar: http://www.greenhornsview.blogspot.com/) but he 
doesn't have got a videoblog but he has some experimental videos on his site.

So, do you agree when I say that there were no many long-lasting videoblogs 
just short-dated experimental ones between 2000 and 2004? Then, Ryanne and 
Steve came in.

Regards
Jenna

 Hey Jenna--
 
 To be honest, there weren't any vloggers really anywhere before 2004.
 People experimented with posting video online, but Adrian Miles was
 the only person I found who had used a blog to post videos on any kind
 of regular basis.
 
 Ive never heard of greenhorn.

I would say that this is a true statement. When I started this
Videoblogging group in 2004, I scanned the web for anyone who posted
video regularly to a blog. Adrian Miles, Steve Garfield, and Chris
Weagel are some of the ones I remember. Just look in the archives of
this group. There were people I invited to the group who never
responded. Most folks seemed to have done one experiment with video
and were done.

I dont think I remember Adam: http://4tvs.com/explanation.html Maybe I
thought he was too popular to invite?

Many of the others who joined soon after were video folks who
immediately understood the idea behind videoblogging and started doing
it. Remember that there were no online video services back then. Part
of the fun/frustration was making it up as we went along. Compression,
uploading to a server, embedding, RSS feeds.

It wasn't long before Youtube and other services popped up. Video
communities spread. It just had to be easy enough to get video online.
