  they take into account things like nearby local news stations and
  stadium-type venues and help you select frequencies to tune your mics
  to that are least likely to pick up interference. I don't remember
  what it was called, or how you access it, and this was 5 yrs ago so

  Has anyone else heard of anything like this? Is it common and I'm

interference.

   into one plug for your camcorder.

Interesting that you escaped the _point__cam_in_face_ style you've embraced assiduously in your earlier pieces.

Would this be a turning point, a momentary departure or an unconscious aberration? What inspired this leap?

It amazes me how this simple video of going over a bridge can be so emotional for me.

I was going through tapes of my families old filmstrips transfered to VHS tonight. I found that my father had filmed his crossing the Mackinac Bridge back in the 70's. 

I never knew my father, he was sick and couldnt really even talk when I was young. He died about 10 years ago... So when I found this footage and realized that I had filmed the almost exact thing with no knowledge of his video, my heart skipped. Some sort of connection was made with video/film. It may seem silly, but I hold dear to any fragment of my father, this is a fragment that really hit me...

>From Steve's post:

So as the reporter started to take a picture of the people at table, I brought out my camera to get a picture of her taking a picture of us. Pretty standard operating procedure for a flickr photo loving blogger who is also into documenting the way media is made.

As I raised my camera, she shielded her face and said that she didn't want her picture taken.

She was upset.

She fled the room and hurried into the next room, out of sight.

Hello!

I'm pleased to present the new and improved version of my thesis
project, VideoString!
You can view it at it's new home, http://www.videostring.net !

If you participated in my user input survey a few weeks ago, THANK
YOU!  Your input has helped me to improve this program dramatically.
Among the suggestions that I took were:

I added natural sound behind the video clips instead of crazy loud 
static noise
I added a clear button, so you don't have to individually remove
tiles from your poem when you are finished
I re-designed the interface, allowing the poem to move to the left
while the video plays 
I added color control options for those of you who don't feel
entirely comfortable with teal blue
I added playback variations, including the ability to repeat a video
or play a new version from the same poem
I added the ability to save and link to videos so you can view them
later or send them to a friend
I added buttons that allow you to search for parts of speech if
you're stuck

Please check the project out, create a poem, and share it with a 
friend (by clicking on URL of movie, you know!).  This project will
only grow with your help, and the help of your friends!  At this
point, the major thing missing is your videos.  Are you frustrated 
with the lack of vocabulary?  Make me a video for one of the words
that isn't represented yet!  The complete word list is linked from
the submit video menu, and that link leads you here: http://
 www.videostring.net/WordList.html .  This is one place where you
really can control your environment... to an extent ;-)  This will be
a grassroots kind of project, and hopefully it will be pretty fun in
the end. 

Thanks so much for your support!
Serra

  -- are interested in (or have commented on) my video blog, headsoff

[videoblogging] Vlogging toy

2006-04-28 Thread robert a/k/a r



Hey all,

Came across a new toy and decided to order one to mess around.

http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/US/ 
EN,CRID=2204,CONTENTID=10628

Phil Torrone has a demo, check it here:

logitech_quickcam_orbit_mp_1.html

I'm not going to name names, but I can think of a few vloggers who 
would have fun with it :)

Re: [videoblogging] Re: lightbox for Video

2006-04-26 Thread robert a/k/a r
Okay, help me understand what's going on here, obviously I joined the conversation late.

Initially I thought the idea of a new wordpress plugin was being kicked around, so i jumped in with my thoughts that's i'd like it to work similarly to how Sull presents in vlogdir (see attachment in my earlier mail).

Then Josh Leo's indication was that the wordpress plugin was already in the works and that I should have seen that information in earlier mails (which i did not).

Then Enric confirmed such a plugin was iin the works and would kindly notify me offlist as i requested. cool, so far.

The David posts his new cool js, which btw also works seamlessly in safari.

Then sull indicates no wordpress plugin iin the works on his end. 

Okay, this would mean possible Enric is building one.

Bottom line is, whether wordpress plugin or js as David proffered, I'd be interested presenting video on my wordpress blog as done by Sull in vlogdir (would also want to have a detach  (to pop up an indy window and terminate the coolio page dimming event) and one or two other little conveniences.

Could someone recap what's in the works and what would be possible if a competent geek were to have a few free cycles to hack a solution.

Agreed.

Doesn't it feel heightened, more so every day?

Could it be because netizens can collaborate more readily than any

I'm very curious about this. Is it our sense of fairness the foundation

It's interesting. Heh. Fairness. Of course it could just be the beers

Re: [videoblogging] Fair Or Not (was The Last Hours - Death of a Videoblogger Kevin Krutz)

2006-04-24 Thread robert a/k/a r



I'd like to nominate fair as the central theme of our times, these 
times, whether you choose to call them 2.0 or whatever.

Seems we are more sensitive to fairness, I can't put my finger on 
exactly why though.

Is it because the ability to maintain community has become easier due 
to the networky glue we're all high on, or is it something else?

Music pricing, political shenanigans, nondisclosure of business 
relationships, fair use, first amendment rights suppression, breaching 
NC licenses, experimenting on unwitting audiences, I'm sure there's 
more but you get the gist.

Why is fairness such a central theme (assuming it is and I'm not just 
imagining it due to overwork) and why the big reaction on this list and 
elsewhere to perceived breaches of fairness?

Re: [videoblogging] Can vloggers hack mountains

The great thing about all of these experiments is we learn about attention. Why do we need to re-ignite vlogathon.com -- which had seemed like a good idea. 

Why don't peeps get more enthusiastic about social causes?

Why did vlogging become the generic term for posting video on the internet?

What good examples can we show where vlogging has already helped improve a social situation?

Sull, I'd like nothing better than to see vlogathon happen in a big way, what do you think we need to try and what social cause would be a good experiment?

Re: [videoblogging] Can vloggers hack mountains

2006-04-21 Thread robert a/k/a r
Tag-chatter. Excellent. Did you coin that term or have I not been paying enough attention to attention :)

Tags are part of the problem. They're like hot sauce, you have to know when to stop dowsing. That lesson is being learned by some, others are still figuring out how to remove the governor from the top of the bottle.

Vlogging is being usurped and generalised into video_posting_on_the_web for reasons that are now becoming obvious and others that will be discovered as the event unfurls. Tagging is part of it.

I don't think it's a reason to feel dark, it's just a data point. It may be, as Chuck points out, rich opportunities exist in fund raising. Or maybe not. 

The notion of reforming media and the it's us against broadcast television, though, I believe is wrongheaded, an inefficient us of calories. Trying to change the nature of the beast or kill will only accelerate the  dissipation of the vlogging idea.

I don't know if vlogging, in the non-generic sense, can be established on a larger scale. It's up to peeps in this group to figure it out, but I wouldn't get in a funk if it remains but a cool idea.

Having said that, if somehow the magic of social web 2.0 happens and a convergence occurs and a stride is found, and I'm not talking pasting selling adverts on the posteriors of look-at-my-cute videos, then there may be a chance.  

I'm inclined to believe if there is a convergence it will be on social causes, but you may be right that tagging will keep such messages from view. 

Yeah, it's an attention problem. I'll bet we didn't even come close to the $2000 figure for Nata village. Fsck. Not sexy enough for the masses. Maybe vlogging, the non-generic kind just isn't sexy. Okay, now I'm risking a a dark feeling coming, I need to stop thinking about this.

Sorry... after writing this, I feel its out of context... but maybe not!

When the early blogging revolution, it swiftly took a variety of forms that affected the world in ways never before imagined. For instance, I still remember the Salam Pax times... the kind of notice it got and the insight it gave to the readers. In our part of the world, Fadereu and some of us who created CSF, which was the first time anyone had attempted to republish text messages coming from Tsunami-torn Sri Lankan relief workers/friends as blog entries. The turn around time of the news was faster than any news agency could have managed, and it was sheer genius of Fadereu's brain. There are several other instances where blogging helped turn the wheel of events towards a more logical and sensible one. 

Enter videoblogging. The original motive (and perhaps still) was to reform Media (in a bigger sense of the word), to make it more personal, human, to rid it of its blockages, impurities... to create a direct channel from the creator to the audience. This revolution saw several bright spots in its short span as well. Take the Tsunami videos, or the other water-disasters...

Unfortunately (and perhaps its my dark state of mind from listening to too many Opeth songs today), it never really ended up evolving into a tool that would be taken notice by the powers that rule. Instead, it took a natural course (entertainment, sex, comedy), and even though there were some interesting voices that could be heard from around, the collective tag-chatter (which is completely go along with pop-culture) now manages to suppress anything uninteresting to the popular mass. And of course, uninteresting has nothing to do with unimportant or irrelevant. Am I wrong? 

For instance, let's take the Iran Nuclear issue that has resurfaced again... where is it going? Is it another conflict down the road? Shouldn't we wonder about the inclinations of the political machine? Or is it too sensitive an issue? Will Vlogging elevate to the level of strength that blogging garnered once? 

Feeling dark again. Perhaps I will just return to my Porcupine Tree album (In Absentia) and just exist!

Cheers,

[videoblogging] Veoh article

2006-04-21 Thread robert a/k/a r
I was just going through a few links and stumbled across a Veoh interview (from earlier this year) where they talk about editorial and advertising.  The quote really jumped out at me, I can't put my finger on exactly why.

Here's a quote and below is the link to the full article;

Sometimes those recommendations will be videos.  But sometimes they will be advertisements.  And if Dunning's crazy math works like it is supposed to, you might not even know the difference between the two.  We look at advertising as content, says Shapiro.  Targetted advertising is potent content.  As an example, he shows me a  clip of a videoblogger driving around in a Porsche in Germany.  It is not an ad, but it might as well be one.  What if, suggests Shapiro, there were a Porsche logo in the corner that said more info available.  And if you click it, you get several options, such as download a four-minute infomercial or longer, official Porsche driving videos for later viewing, or watch them now, or send an e-mail to yourself with a link to a Porche Website. 

http://business2.blogs.com/business2blog/2006/02/scoop_veoh_take.html>

Maybe if I were there at the presentation and had seen their Porsche video I would have appreciated their comments better. I wonder if other aggregators are considering similar strategies.

My own D list post just went up on on http://vlognews.24x7.com -- surely many of you can do better.

I want the list to know about a new service for web video user interface that I've started.  It's called Click.TV (www.click.tv).  It's a new user interface for web video that enables users to discover the contents of a video instantly and add their thoughts about specific details in the video.

Our business model is *not* to compete with video sharing sites.  It is to provide our interface to sites that are hosting videos.  One (flattering) way to think about us is as the Levi’s of the 2006 Internet video gold rush. Back in 1849, they supplied blue jeans rather than mining gold. We’re supplying a tool for the video sites, not the video itself.

Steve Garfield blogged about it over the weekend, and many other blogs (e.g. www.techcrunch.com) are writing about it.  Here's Steve's entry:

http://offonatangent.blogspot.com/2006/04/adobe-site-of-day.html

On the demo of Steve's VLOG SOUP on our site (http://click.tv/videoblogs_demo.php), I enabled a special feature not enabled anywhere else on the site:  Share Video.  Check that out and feel free to use it.

Also, we're Macromedia's Site of the Day today.  See www.macromedia.com and look at the lower right.

Bev, I think most peeps can't keep up with the volume on this list, I know I many days just don't read anything on here. And re the tech stuff, I'd bet most on here, as I am too, are wondering what the extent of this particular Microsoft issue.

Lists such as these are about respect. If someone disses the list or individuals on the list it simply wrong. My statement is not aimed at anyone in particular, dissing simply happens on occasion for whatever reason and it should be corrected. And my definition of diss extends beyond simple rudeness, there are other ways to disrespect the membership.

It's assumed that if one joins this list, then one reads the posts

OK...I'll address this issue.  I was told that this is a group for all levels of videobloggers, from rank beginners to experts, that people would answer questions and never put anybody down for asking a stupid question.  I have found this generally to be true.  I would not know 1/10th of what I know now without FreeVlog, for example.  HOWEVER, someone coming into this group as a rank beginner would very quickly be totally overwhelmed with all the technospeak from the experts, to say nothing of the volume of e-mail.
 
I don't have a clue about the technical aspects of videoblogging and posting.  I think that, as a senior citizen, I'm doing well to (a) make a video, (b) compress it, (c) post it, and (d) imbed it into my journal page and cross post to Blogger.  At the moment, my miniDV is broken and I have no money to buy a new camera--and no hope of having enough money for a new purchase in the foreseeable future, so I'm filming with my Panasonic Digital camera, converting .mov files to .avi if I want to edit a movie, and then converting back to .mov (I was rather proud of myself for figuring out how to do that). 
 
But quite frankly I am totally lost in most of the discussions here.  Still, I do pick up gems of information from time to time and  so I stay on the list, but I either skip over 90% of the discussions or set my filter to send them to an ignore file because I don't understand what people are talking about (Veoh transcoding feeds, for example) and, what with bottle feeding puppies and doing medical transcription, don't have the time to figure it out--especially when I don't have the money to get the equipment that will allow me to do it anyway.
 
So that's why I stick with the group, but don't read most of the posts anyway.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Hard drives local storage question

2006-04-13 Thread robert a/k/a r
Same here, viewing in the browser is my preferred experience. I like 
seeing the video in the context of peeps sites and the text of the 
entry.

And as Andreas stated, when the browser closed the cache is cleared and 
disk space is recovered.

I can't see any reason why one would want to archive copies of other 
peeps videos, unless of course you are watching them in places you 
don't have internet access or you're editing a remix.

If you're keeping tons of OPV on your disk, you should really ask 
yourself is you want to. It's like nutters people who save old

Re: [videoblogging] Halcyon's disclosure (was: Veoh Transcoding Feeds...)

2006-04-10 Thread robert a/k/a r
Hi Halcyon,

It's your role at Veoh that was ambiguous, not your integrity. Sorry if 
you feel that's the question, I don't believe you ever before disclosed 
you working relationship, at least not that I recall.

You appear part of Veoh's marketing effort, your enthusiasm is so 
great. And you appear to speak for Dmitry on occasion, this also 
confuses your role. Now that we know you do NOT represent Veoh, it's 
much less confusing.

You see, I always find it easier to try a new product if the person 
recommending it is not being compensated by the company offering the 
product, now that we know you're an enthusiastic friend of Dmitri's and 
no more, and do not receive compensation from Veoh, I'm perhaps more 
interested in exploring what it has to offer.

Disclosure is important, it helps build credibility. Good luck with 
your various projects.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: massive infringement (was: Veoh Transcoding Feeds...)

2006-04-09 Thread robert a/k/a r
Correct Josh. And I agree, that is a very relevant concern.

And Sull, yeah, I completely agree, spidering in the case of creating an index in one use. Spidering is like a hammer, if you use it to drive nails in to build a house that's one thing, if you use it to bust the lock off someone's kitchen door without the home owner's permission to gain access to the premises to collect the content it's another. I'm simply trying to understand what was going on, how did the content move from my server to Veoh's. Why Veoh didn't link back and why they did not provide attribution, along with a few other questions are also matters for concern.

I generally assume people are decent and not stealing, and I'll probably always be that way. Let's continue to give Dmitry an opportunity to help everyone on this list understand how feeds got into his content collection system, he already stated (correct me if I'm wrong, Dmitry) Veoh never spidered. Let's let him answer the two questions on my last email and finally find out how the feeds got into Veoh's system to collect video.

That's why I invite Dmitry to answer in good faith the two questions in my most recent posting, if you also would like to understand why and how a the videos in question got on Dmitry's servers to the group I'd be interested in hearing your questions and Dmitry's answers, you guys and Peter are undoubtedly much more tech savvy than I and certainly close to the issues, both regulatory and operational. Are you comfortable with not knowing how the feeds got into Veoh's system? To me it leaves the door unlocked and open and in my opinion that is not good security, and Dmitry I would hope feels similarly - let's see if he answers.

I don't see why this question would matter. People manually input RSS
feeds into any aggregator site or feed directory such as FireAnt,
MeFeedia, Vlogdir, others... what's wrong with that? The issue has
more to do with what Veoh is doing with videos in RSS syndication

Vloggers, my personal opinion is a business person would immediately 
take down and destroy all copies of everything he scraped without 
authorisation, potential statutory damages and other liabilities are 
too great (disclosure: IANAL). If I was operating a video hosting 
company and my board was aware I was copying, modifying and 
redistribution works of others without authorisation I think I'd be 
more than a little concerned. I believe there's nothing more to see 
here, let's move on.

One more thing. Now adding link-backs will not remedy the breach 
discussed in this thread, I disagree fully with someone's earlier post 
offering the addition of link-backs.

Why are you snipping out the part where Dmitri Shapiro announces his Series A and says We will NOT transcode your video like Google does and changing the topic to bittorrent. Charles, if you have something about bittorrent please start a new thread. 

Most of us know bittorrent well. In fact you can see a related video clip I made which Veoh SCRAPED from my site, uses COMMERCIALLY and has TRANSCODED all without my authorisation, here's Veoh's link:

(Despite what you are trying to imply here) There is NOTHING wrong with BitTorrent technology.  And just because some people use it to do copyright infringement does NOT make it a bad technology.  (Many many many people use it for legitimate uses too!)

 People use e-mail for copyright infringement, does that make e-mail bad?!  People use instant messaging for copyright infringement, does that make instant messaging bad?!  People use the Web for copyright infringement, does that make the Web bad?!

 BitTorrent is used for ALOT of legitimate uses.  Both by individuals and companies.

 The really nice thing, for vloggers, about BitTorrent (and other P2P technologies like it) is it empowers us as indiviuals.  And gives us more choice.  We don't need to align ourselves with large companies or networks if we don't want to.  We can go at it and be successful on our own (if we choose to).

to me, Veoh is different from YouTube in this way:

YouTube allows users to upload video. Users upload video that may or may not conform to copyright. YouTube either chooses not to monitor for copyright infringement or cannot do so. 

Veoh is the same in this regard. The difference lies in the spidering. As well as a community site where users can upload content, Veoh also spiders other video hosting sites as well as individual vlog sites and inputs their content into their community. Veoh is directly involved in the copyright infringement. That is the difference and that difference is huge.

Simple yes or no will suffice.

Dmitry,

Simple answers are good, your last email reminded me of the one you sent the group back on 19 August 2005 when you first called attention by mysteriously coming up with a list of emaill addresses. Oh yes, you remember that incident, the one where you stated.

We have sent out one email to our [EMAIL PROTECTED] list, announcing the
launch of our video uploader.  The only emails on our list are people
that have sent an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]  If your name is
inappropriately on the list, please email me directly at
[EMAIL PROTECTED], or [EMAIL PROTECTED]

We do NOT harvest any email, will not release our email list to any
third party, and will not spam.

Please be perfectly clear here, don't avoid the question again by creating a new thread.

Have any persons who work for Veoh or with Veoh (for pay or not) manually input RSS feeds into the system?

Simple yes or no will suffice.

Correct, Verdi.

Clearly VEOH, given the business they are in, should be aware of the legal issues related to the unauthorised copying and distribution of content of others. 

Is there absolute certainty that VEOH or someone has copied and are hosting video on VEOH's servers without permission of the copyright holders?

It isn't as simple as adding a link back. Most people use some version of the non-commercial cc license. If that's the case they shouldn't be allowed to host your stuff at all unless you specifically grant them that license. What you are saying with the NC license is that it is NOT okay to use this for commercial purposes (since VEOH is hosting your content on their commercial site instead of just linking to it, it's a commercial use) without first obtaining permission from the creator. They are not doing this. Providing a link back only fixes the attribution clause.

Sorry, mate. If what others say is truly going on re unauthorised

No more excuses, please (assuming the claims are true).

Can you verify the any of the claims, Halcyon? True or untrue, Halcyon?

 Well, part of this situation is due to the organic nature of the
 technology growing (and not any evil plan).

 i.e. Veoh originally did not have encoded versions at all. It was more
 of a system to find videos (*my understanding) and use a peercasting
 method to distribute large files without bandwidth fees for
 broadcasters.

 Alas, as all my friends started using YouTube to share videos, I was
 one of the people that begged Veoh to add an automated flash preview
 for the videos available in their directory.

  I'm personally STOKED with the resulting technology, but as seen
 today, new issues have risen up.  I've heard nothing from Veoh that
 made me think they  weren't more than willing to make changes or
 rethink their plans.

I've got accounts at both DH and LP, both have automated Wordpress installation. Personally, I find the LP control panel easier.

The bandwidth DH offers is larger, the downloads feel faster at LP.

I have my http://vlognews.24x7.com over at blogger just to keep an eye on their service and developments (as I have blogs at other hosts too) and, too, am disappointed by the downtime and slow response from support.

In the end, it's a personal decision, no one hosting service will ever be perfect for everyone. Good luck!

Re: [videoblogging] RE: It's a time to Celebrate!!!!!!

2006-03-04 Thread robert a/k/a r
Correct. Times have changed.

In the stills world, peeps who would poke out their eyes before going 
RF have the right to do so. However RM appears to be going the way of 
other industries where (a) mass digital distribution is viable, (b) 
production by many is enabled by new low-cost and easy-to-use tools, 
and (c) the increased demand for low cost product. They curse the day 
the internet and digital cameras evolved into being. Fine. Look at the 
depression over at the RIAA and MPAA, they failed to see it coming and 
appear to be failing to adapt. And maybe they can't adapt for whatever 
reasons, that's too bad (Iearned the that's too bad from Markus, I 
like how he uses it:).

In the digital world smart guys like Murdock and others will take 
advantage of change. Why not. It doesn't mean you have to participate 
fully as they would like, in fact perhaps one can probably learn and 
benefit from their actions.

Many people posting video on the web are either (a) experimenting and 
don't care about the rights, (b) experimenting and accumulating data re 
effectiveness of particular distribution methods and don't care about 
the rights, (c) posting their work without reading TOS agreements and 
getting hosed on rights, but hey, that's life in the food chain, (d) 
shotgunning teasers for which they don't care jack about the rights (e) 
hosting their material production themselves purchasing self-hosted 
services (such as Dreamhost and using Wordpress) and posting only links 
to their content at places such as Myspace and not giving Murdock any 
rights.

It's all up to you. Each of us. If coming from a RM world this all will 
most likely be a shock to your system. Here you can perhaps learn with 
us re digital distribution and production as we figure it out as the 
rules and space morph. Learn about more recent rights developments 
(i.e., Creative Commons), about services other than Myspace, about how 
consumption is changing. Welcome.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: myspace video

2006-03-02 Thread robert a/k/a r
Let's see if we can begin to figure it out.

I thinks there are several questions.

1) What do videobloggers want most?

2) What does videoblogging need most?

The first question is probably more complex in that personal preferences intersect with and sometimes dominate the group interest.

Back to the first. Methinks there is a very large audience over at myspace who are inclined towards shared experiences such as video production / audience. If this thinking is true then those vloggers who want larger audiences probably have something to gain. Isn't it easier to meet people if you venture beyond your clique sometimes? 

Seems sometimes it would benefit vloggers if we (a) encouraged the service providers who are non-native this group to participate, and (b) encouraged vloggers to experiment with, or at a minimum intellectually examine, alternative arenas. 

Regarding the second question, the group interest, it would be cool to hear from one of the vlogfathers. Does vids.myspace.com offer any benefit to vlogging / vloggers?

Re: [videoblogging] Re: myspace video

2006-03-02 Thread robert a/k/a r
Yes, this is not an easy question Josh ;-)

The focus on benefits to vloggers / vlogging is deliberate, here, let's maintain focus and see if there is something to be gained. 

Nailing down a specific or two would be ideal. 

These video hosting services becoming communities (i.e., youtube) and communities becoming video hosting services (i.e., myspace) and service behemoths becoming video hosts and brokers (i.e., google) perhaps should be part of videobloggers' strategy. 

Of course, not all videobloggers want a strategy and I respect that and they'll have no interest in this thread. However those who would like to expand their audience or earn from their efforts might benefit from any of your good ideas.

yes. bridges.

everyone posting video on youtube, myspace and google believe they are

everyone pointing a camera at himself and posting the clip on the web 
is making a videoblogging.

this group is small relative top what's going on on the mainland.

of course, i could be wrong however methinks the dam opened.

videoblogging has been generalised, the pristine definition is in

Some sites feel like dead ends, others you are always at crossroads.

Go log onto Vimeo, watch any movie, then glance around at the other 
movies linked on that page. It's simple, clear and, importantly, it 
works; Jakob knoodled-out an algorithm that works.

Youtube does it too. It's a good trick, it's called a well thought out 
UI. And as you probably know, good UI is rare.

Correct. You have to find something you like and then it's easy to find 
more like it. Same at myspace. Both sites are wildly successful.

I completely agree with Josh, re-posting the intellectual property of 
others is wrong.

BTW, wasn't this a great video moment?

 Nothing wrong with great video moments. Especially newsworthy clips
 with commentary. That could be considered fair use. And without
 hosting the content, the liability for the clip certainly does not
 rest with the blogger.

Further, the use of copyrighted music in vlogs will probably ignite a 
bit of controversy at some point. I think we should reiterate for noobs 
who may be tempted to score their vids that this is a violation. Is 
that in the wiki somehwere?

[videoblogging] Will people buy subscriptions

2006-02-20 Thread robert a/k/a r
Hey all

Here's another test of the market for subscriptions:

An Audible subscription to the show will cost $7 a month in the US and £4.50 a month in the UK. For the money, you'll get four half hour shows.

http://www.bit-tech.net/news/2006/02/20/ricky_gervais_podcast_paid/>

Do you think enough peeps will pay or will they have to give in and revert to free distribution? Or will the content just end up available to anyone anywhere anyway?

Heh. Am just catching up on the ton of messages from weekend and see 
Calacanis also has commented, too, re youtube.

http://www.calacanis.com/2006/02/20/youtube-is-not-a-real-business/

Methinks there's more to the youtube popularity. I'm probably one of 
the hardest peeps convince to test a new product and youtube works for 
me. Vimeo too, BTW.

For example, I found this Gaspar Noé piece youtube (prolly NSFW, is 
somewhat explicit) earlier:

Anyone explain why youtube (and vimeo) constantly entertain? Both have 
a method for discover that works. That's valuable.

Re: [videoblogging] example of video in business

Amazing.

I 3 his throw-caution-to-the-wind mentality and how fantastically 
non-conservative (not in a political sense, of course) is his use of 
media.

I did notice, though an unfortunately, some visual artefacts probably 
due to the video compression, do you think a higher bit rate or a 
different codec would have been more effective in communicating his 
idea? Of course it could be because I'm viewing on a Mac.
