there is also something called stretch film which if it became viable  
could be relevant here. I only know of one person who actually made  
something like it (using LiveStage Pro). the idea (comes from stretch  
hypertext) is that you have, say, a 2 minute version of the work, but  
at any point you can 'stretch' it to make that sequence or content  
area longer by getting more material, and so on until you may (in  
theory) view all the footage for that sequence. Bit like svg for video  
I guess.

woah.

Now *THAT* is an interesting concept. Your comp tape actually contains the rest 
of the video, being skipped over unless you select it.  I like that a lot. :)

I suppose, technically, you could do something similar with YouTube 
annotations, as far as linking each demo section to the video that it actually 
represents... ASSUMING you wanted to use YouTube at all, and assuming that 
there was an efficient way to skip back to the location you left from the 
original video.

But yeah, that's a great idea! :D

This sounds totally great.

Just got gainful employment that will take my attention for most of what's
going on Friday, but Saturday  Sunday, would LOVE to at least hang out if
not attend the actual conference sessions. I'll be too brain dead for that
by then.

I've spots for four folks to stay sleeping on cots; five, with one on air
mattress; 50 or more with floor space.

It's urban camping. No shower, inconvenient transpo to the city.

But there you have it.

And like Social Media, YouTube, videoblogging, twitter, and other trends, it
will take 3 years to become mainstream.

Year 1: Discovery by early-adopters

Year 2: Corporate Discovery and creation of budget for projects in...

Year 3: Where everything goes mainstream.

I keep talking about this three year trend to people, saying that we have to
move fast if we want to change the media. Look at how things changed for
videoblogging alone between 2004 and 2007, or even from 2006 to now?

This is not a dress rehearsal. We can't just sit and talk about changing the
state of media, we must take action. The corporate momentum and
infrastructure/warchest for communication has and will drown out our
conversations, no matter how many positive benefits our ideas will bring to
the world.

This largest hurdle I foresee is getting apps to run on the tvs, and  
how well each manufacturer adheres to any given standard.

I believe most manufacturers have signed on to use tru2way, which is

Does anyone foresee Ellison making some type of grab here? If so, will  
it kill the platform/adoption?

My impression is that the main, first iTV's use a closed software architecture 
of widgets, i.e. Yahoo Widgets.  There's one or more that have open software, 
but very expensive.  It probably won't be until next year that open software 
iTV's will be affordable that anyone can write software to.  Things may have 
changed since I last looked into this...let me know if otherwise.

2009-05-24 Thread Enric
The history of technological phaes is covered well by Kurzweil in The 
Singularity is Near, IMO.  The first phase is widely optomistic where people 
see possibilities and blue skies.  Then those predictions fall short with 
skepticism and conservative view.  In the second (and sometimes third phase) 
real success occurs.  Recently this can be seen with the first dot.com boom and 
bust.  Out of that huge, successful companies emerged in the second phase like 
Google, Amazon, etc.

For internet media we are probably between the first and second phase.  And I 
do (and have) predicted that Internet TV will realize the potential of quality, 
independent online media publishing.  Story telling going back to performing in 
front of a group at a fire, the Greek theatres, to Cinema and TV, is at a 
distance, large.  It is immersive and compelling.  For story, people want to be 
drawn into it -- not disengage to interact and direct it, then immerse again 
back and forth.  Otherwise it's game playing, not story. And Internet TV will 
remove the network/cable gatekeepers to Story in it's proper proscenium.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Internet-Ready TV's from Major Brands Coming

2009-05-24 Thread Rupert
I've always assumed that none of them will really end up with proper  
browsers - just content portals full of pre-selected channels from  
commercial partners.
This is how we will all get shut out.

 From the article:

Philips is calling its internet service Net-TV. Devices in the 9000  
series work with WLAN, while those in the 8000 series and the  
widescreen 21:9 models work with LAN connections. Unlike other  
manufacturers, Philips allows the internet information to take up the  
entire screen.

The user gets started by navigating to the Net-TV home page. Philips  
has established partnerships with content providers willing to adapt  
their content for the TV screen. In Germany this includes major web  
sites like tagesschau.de, bild.de, kicker.de and YouTube as well as  
MyAlbum as a photo archive. It's also possible to enter in internet  
addresses directly, although Net-TV is unable to work with either Java  
or Flash.

At Panasonic the internet mode is called Viera Cast and involves  
little program windows surrounding a reduced-sized TV image. These  
widgets show the weather, stock prices from Bloomberg TV, latest  
headlines and videos television stations as well as clips from  
YouTube. Viera Cast is slated to be integrated into the V 10, G 15 and  
Z 1 devices.

Samsung has dubbed its programme inter...@tv. It provides only one  
program window next to the TV image. That can be YouTube clips, as  
well as headlines or weather reports delivered from Yahoo. The photos  
section is provided via the Flickr service.
