Does anyone know of any good YouTube User/Partner forums? Given the millions of Youtube users I figured there would be no shortage of forums, but my Google search mojo must be totally off today because I can't find any. And I heard on one video there is a forum for youtube partners only, but I'm a

Ron Watson: Any other suggestions for USB cameras would be really appreciated. Hi ya, Ron: I'll take a stab at your question only my take may be on the pricey side, but perhaps worth your consideration. Foremost the advantage to shooting using USB, presumably direct to a hard drive, is for

I was just asked to jot down the history of Vloggercue for someone, thought I'd post it here too: Vloggercue started in 2005 when a handful of videobloggers from around the world got together to talk about technical issues and content of web video, and what they were doing to shape it. Most

Yeah one of the reasons I always throw my hat in with h.264 in these discussions is because of the practical reasons why h.264 is easier for almost everyone, at least until such a time as h.264 licensing actually sucks rather than just theoretically sucks. Im still glad Google appear to be

Forgot to say that its also possible that VP8 support could be added to Flash if it starts to take off, which would be a workaround for some browsers that may not support it directly. Whatever happens, h.264 remains the best option for maximum browser compatibility for a while, due to flashs

Yes I think there are quite a few potential gains along the lines you indicate. As for h.264 charging issues, I only expect them to attempt to charge people who have the ability, incentive revenues to pay. I suppose it could happen, but its more likely that those higher up the chain, eg

I would not be surprised if H.264 evolves as a *more* open codec and royalty free in 5 or 6 years when licensing terms are due to be re-evaluated again. think of the landscape in 2016. google has pushed this. its probably googles best and most admirable contribution to the open web. also, its
