Or lots of vlogs will use video clips from big hollywood films to which they do not have the legal right. I only use stuff that's authorized under common lisc. AND/OR stuff that I have purchased via stock outlets. I own a virtual agency and I have to negotiate with every artist regarding usage rights. These folks work hard to produce their work and I don't feel that it is right to take it without authorization. 2. Shaky video - ala 'the blair witch project' 3.

Ham Radio has always been an interesting (and at times vital) component in emergency/disaster communications. ok .. now back to the topic (I think). I've kinda thought of it this way in my head: VoIP is to Ham Radio as Vlogging is to TV. VoIP let people freely find/communicate with people all over the world without the entry barrier (license) or technical knowledge (Radio operation/code/etc) that things like Ham Radio have. One of the coolest things that brought young people into the hobby of Ham Radio was the wonder of sitting town and being able to have a random conversation and share ideas with people all over the world. It was great. It required a license and to learn Morse code, and to know how radio signals worked, and how to tune an antenna for the right band, and all sorts of things ... but it was great. Today ... you can do that with Yahoo Messenger. :-P The other amazing thing you could do with HAM Radio was stay in contact anywhere ... even in your car. HAMs would set up auto-patches to route Shortwave to/from land line telephones ... WHOA! Today ... we all have cell phones. :-P Understandably HAMs were somewhat concerned that their already dwindling numbers might drop off all together as this new distributed and unregulated communication medium found its place in homes all over the world. Sure there was alot of noise on this 'Internet' but the shear ease of use (comparably) was hard to ignore. Mainstream media is no doubt similarly concerned that their revenue models and programming formats are going to be serious problems as a new and engaging form of on-demand entertainment is insisted upon by more and more of the world. Ham Radio Operators eventually learned that things were going to change, but nobody was likely to go extinct. Ham Radio license requirements have changes, preferred operating methods, bandwidth has been reallocated - but HAMs are still around. Hams still use auto-patch at times (even though they have a cell phone). Hams still spend hours hunting for the perfect long-range signal (even though they could just open up an international VoIP chat room). The same will happen with media I think. Some vloggers will move more mainstream. Some mainstream will move to be more vloggish. Vloggers will have to deal with more and more show-like vlogs (and the expectation that will set in new potential viewers). Mainstream media will have to deal with the fact that people can get unfiltered news and entertainment on demand (and the expectation that will set in their viewers). People willing to look through a bit of noise will use VoIP/Vlogging scenario... the rest will find comfort in the more controlled HAM/Mainstream-Media scenario :-) Sure there's noise in our channel ... but it wont prevent the

There are definitely parallels here with Ham Radio etc... but the advantage here is that these Ham Radios (blogs) are already in many homes and counting... and the cognitive overhead in blogging gives it a memetic advantage... also folks overlook the simplification tools like MySpace... peer-pressure gateway drugs of cyberculture... CB can be expensive and technical... blogging is easy as email... which is expensive and technical... but increasingly standard... access and simplicity conventional media assimilation i think is possible... but it's a mutual assimilation... the landscape will be different... folks arent just gonna up n leave the internet en mass... and conventional media will continue to get comfortable online... they'll meet on a peer level decentralized democratized... that's what we're about...

Blogging and podcasting will eventually morph into something that looks a whole lot more like The New York Times, and the Times will come down a step or two and learn to give up a bit of its patrician nature.

[videoblogging] Fwd: [cc-info] CC in Review: Lawrence Lessig on Supporting the Commons
Maybe u knew... if not... whatcha think? The licenses give creators a simple way to mark their creativity with the freedoms they want it to carry by default. The license is an invitation to others to ask for permission for uses beyond those given by default. A Noncommercial license does not mean the creator would never take money for his or her creativity. It means simply, Ask if you want to make a commercial use. No need to ask if you want to make just a noncommercial use. We launched Creative Commons in December, 2002. Within a year, we counted over 1,000,000 link-backs to our licenses. At a year and a half, that number was over 1,800,000. At two, the number was just about 5,000,000. At two and a half years (last June), the number was just over 12,000,000. And today -- three months later -- Yahoo! reports over 50,000,000 link-backs to our licenses. Link-backs are not really a count of how many objects are licensed under Creative Commons licenses - a single license could cover 100,000 songs in a music database for example, or a single blog might have multiple instances of the license. But the growth does measure something: The uptake of Creative Commons licenses is growing fast, and indeed, far faster than I ever dreamed.-- Forwarded message --From: Lawrence Lessig [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Oct 6, 2005 12:12 PMSubject: [cc-info] CC in Review: Lawrence Lessig on Supporting the CommonsTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]So today, Creative Commons launches its first fund raising campaign. Until now, we've lived on very generous grants from some very wisefoundations. But the IRS doesn't allow nonprofits to live suchfavored lives for long. To maintain our nonprofit status, the IRSsays we must meet a public support test -- which means we must demonstrate that our support comes from more than a few foundations.And thus, this campaign.This email is a pitch, asking for your support. But it is also thefirst in a series of emails I will write explaining what Creative Commons is, and where we're going with it. This is something I shouldhave done long ago. There have been many thoughtful (even if some notso thoughtful) questions raised about who we are, and where we'regoing. I've wanted an excuse to answer them thoughtfully before. The IRS has given me that excuse.You're on this list because you've signed up to receive informationabout Creative Commons or been a friend to CC in the past. If theseweekly emails from me (from now until Christmas, around 500 words in length, except for this one which is a bit long) will be a bother,please unsubscribe athttp://creativecommons.org/about/newsletter#unsubscribe .Alternatively, if you know others who might find these interesting,please recommend they sign up athttp://creativecommons.org/about/newsletter. This first email won't have much news to current friends of CreativeCommons. You probably know all this. My aim in this initial missiveis to explain what Creative Commons is, and why we launched it. Therewill be some bragging about what we've accomplished so far. Don't worry, these emails are from me, and not a press department. Therewill be plenty of self-criticism later on. For the moment, let'sfocus on the positive idea that got CC going.CC: The StoryCreative Commons was conceived in a conversation I had with Eric Eldred. I was representing Eric in his case challenging the UnitedStates Congress' Copyright Term Extension Act. Eric was enthusiasticabout the case, but not optimistic about the results. Early on, heasked me whether there was a way that we could translate the energy that was building around his case into something positive. Not anattack on copyright, but a way of using copyright to support, ineffect, the public domain.I readily agreed, not so much because I had a plan, but because, naive lawyer that I was, I thought we'd win the case, and Eric wouldforget the dream. But nonetheless, long before the Supreme Courtdecided to hear Eldred's plea, a bunch of us had put together theplan to build the Creative Commons. We stole the basic idea from the Free Software Foundation -- giveaway free copyright licenses. Because copyright is property, the lawrequires that you get permission before you use a copyrighted work, unless that use is a fair use. The particular kind of use thatrequires permission is any use within the reach of the exclusiverights that copyright grants. In the physical world, these exclusive rights leave lots unregulated by copyright. For example, in the realworld, if you read a book, that's not a fair use of the book. It isan unregulated use of the book, as reading does not produce a copy (except in the brain, but don't tell the lawyers).But in cyberspace, there's no way to use a work withoutsimultaneously making a copy. In principle, and again, subject tofair use, any use of a work in cyberspace could be said to require permission first. And it is that feature (or bug, depending upon yourperspective) that was the hook we used to get Creative Commons

Internet TV should be free and open-source, just like blogging and podcasting, and we need your help to make sure the open-source stuff takes the lead.One last thing: our design contest is still running, so you could win $1000 if you submit a DTV interface mockup and we use your design (or $300 for a logo).Thanks to: our development team, our design team (especially the volunteers), everyone who's given us feedback and bug reports on DTV so far, and our partner organizations (check out some cool new channels in DTV showing right now).Download DTV beta for Mac OS X today: http://participatoryculture.org/And after you try it, let us know what you think!
