One line occurs to me as I read through all these.

VIDEO WANTS TO BE SOCIAL.

I'd challenge the Miro people to make it more SOCIAL of an experience.

I think the move AWAY from the permalink button back to the website,
and toward obtuse interactive favoriting system is what causes Miro to
be so disconnected.

Not going to go into what I mean by social.

But I will say...

VIDEO IS THE NEW PHOTO.

Think flickr.

Video does want to be social.

 lot of what it does I'm already doing through my browser.

 Does anyone here use Miro as a core application and if so was it a conscious
 effort to adopt it or did it just slowly become a program you use?

 I think I might use Miro more if it had a commenting system built in or some
 more give and take.  It maybe needs more give and take.  It might be too
 much of a one way street right now.

Is that a reference to hot/cold media.

Videoblogging is certainly a hot medium.

An activator.

It is an interesting way to look at it. Because videoblogging does
seem to be at odds with desktop aggregators, set top boxes, and
portable devices like ipods.

Before my 60GB hard drive filled up due to a lack of recordable CDs, I liked 
the lean back experience of watching a half-hour show of all my friends 
latest vlog work. I like the continuous full-screen experience and dislike the 
stuttering that all too often plagues browser playback.
