[videoblogging] Re: Vlog Newbie needs assistance!
Personally, I'd recommend vloggers embed their movies as well as provide a directly link (maybe at the bottom). Do others find it annoying though that when they are watching the video in ANT and the embedded video starts playing in the HTML area? Not only does one have to go pause the embedded one, but the bandwidth savings for the host are lost since it's coming down a second time. I guess one has to balance the viewers, do most watch the video on the webpage, or through the feed? For people that program their own site, consider striping any embedding logic out of the feed perhaps? Chris Nolan.ca http://ChrisNolan.ca/ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Fair play?

A recent blog entry of mine talked about how a large media company dropped the ball on a particular topic.

[videoblogging] Vlogger += 1, my introduction
Hey there, I thought I'd post a short little introduction. I am Chris Nolan.ca, and my site is http://ChrisNolan.ca/ - easy eh? I live in Toronto, with my wife Jen (http://mewren.com/ - sometimes blogger too). Since my website is home grown (I do all the coding myself) it has taken me a little while to get around to updating the system to handle enclosures but yesterday I finally did (and learnt this morning that I messed up because I allowed multiple enclosures per item, whoops). I'm a geek at heart, with interests in movies, technology, comicsbooks - you know the usual geekdom properties. My first day and I've managed to post 3 new videos - I think I'm hooked! It is liberating to know that there is an audience out there! My latest, entitled A Great Fire May Follow a Tiny Spark ( http://chrisnolan.ca/archive/ID/515 ) is a play on the growth of the vlogosphere taken from the begining of 2005 to the end. Check it out if you get a moment, and don't be shy about leaving comments. If you just want to add my vlog only feed, using http://chrisnolan.ca/feed/category/vlog I hope this post hasn't been too much self promotion? I look forward to learning from all of you and being able to contribute to the group as well. Chris Nolan.ca YAHOO! GROUPS LINKS Visit your group "videoblogging" on the web.

[videoblogging] Re: New Member Intro
What it does is syndicate your content such that lots of feedreaders (web-based or standalone) can subscribe to it and show your loyal readers the latest from you as soon as you publish it. That is the part that interests me. I haven't come across the usage of 'pings' in any of the vlog directories or aggregators yet. Is that something that is planning on being added and just not done yet, or has there been a conscious decision not to go that route? For those not familar, a ping is basically a webserver that allows your blog software to notify remote systems that you have new content - helps speed up the distribution of the content and also allows them to poll you less frequenty if you're not a super regular poster.

[videoblogging] Re: Vloggercon II
Like Baron, I see that we are approaching a tipping point, and Fast. Before Christmas, we will have video iPods, and already we have the PSP. In less than two months we will have PSP here in Norway (Norwegian version, not just some import from Japan via UK). Videoblogging will be all over the place, and these next 6 months will be Crucial. How much as the cellphone content been looked @? 3G? I noticed Rocketboom is on the bandwagon, but are others? In conversation last month with the cellphone producer for comedy central, he says that only 30,000 subscribers exist in the US so far (those are cellphone video subscribes, not subscribes to comedy central) - but overseas it is much, much higher. Are there many vloggers in areas that cellphone video is popular that can share their thoughts on that growth as well? Chris Nolan http://ChrisNolan.ca/ YAHOO!

[videoblogging] More than one feed?
My system is programmed to allow for a seperate feed for every category (tag), and gives the most recent 15 entries for that tag. I also have a 'main' feed which shows the most recent over all. Because my blog is both video and text, when I first started I updated some of my older videos so that they'd be available, as well I wasn't sure how aggregators and stuff would handle a post that didn't have any enclosure (i.e. my text posts). Now it seems that the aggregators (mefeedia and fireant) ignore the non-video posts, which is good - but to make a long story short I added both to mefeedia originally and so now there are two different entries over there :-( This could confuse people? (and also split my subscribes in half, diluting my rank :-) The question is, do people foresee a time when more generic aggregators will exist that will handle the text entries and the enriched entries? My system is going to have the extra feeds anyway, but should I push people to use just the video only feed or push them to use the main feed? Thanks, Chris Nolan.ca http://ChrisNolan.ca/ YAHOO!
