Re: [videoblogging] Re: making directories
Josh is right about categories not really being good arbitrators of how good content might be. He uses "art" as an example. That is a very good choice. I find that nine out of ten "art" vlogs I watch to be very boring. Then I see one which simply blows me away. Taste is a very subjective thing. "Directories" are the topic but what we really need are reviewers and people who filter content for us. You would quickly recognize those people who directed you to great material. You'd also learn to avoid those whose taste did not match yours. Directories without reviews are almost worthless. An alternative would be directories where vlog producers could post one-paragraph ads (their own review) for their vlog.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: making directories
Petertheman says: "Second: we as vloggers, for some reason, aren't really linking a lotto each other's videos. I'm not sure why that is." I think linking is frequently done on the basis that the more links you put on your site, the more hits you get. For that reason, at least with websites, you link to anyone who will link back to you. I have noticed some vloggers who have great vlogs and who link to others who have outstanding vlogs. However, I also have seen people with a long list of links that are essentially meaningless. Someone should develop "explained" linking. In other words, if I link to jonny goldstein (which I have) I say (great humor). That would help people decide if they were interested. If this can be done and I just don't know how, excuse my ignorance. Has anyone done this?

First, with video, you need a lot more info to decide where to putyour attention than with text, because video demands more attention(you can't just quickly scan it like a text post, for example). So forvideo, you need more filters, metadata, information that helps youdecide what to put your limited attention towards. It's an attentionwar. Hence, directories can be useful.Second: we as vloggers, for some reason, aren't really linking a lotto each other's videos. I'm not sure why that is. But it does meanthat we have less interlinking than textbloggers to help peoplediscover new stuff. Hence, a directory makes sense, again.Third: search for video is an unsolved problem, and will continue tobe, especially for our type of long tail video. Hence, .. you get thepicture :)Then again I could be wrong also and Google might come out with agreat algorythmic way to find videos you want to watch, or we mightall start linking like crazy to each others videos and we wouldn'tneed directories to discover cool stuff.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: making directories
Even highlighting the number of hits a vlog got might be helpful. It would have the negative effect of those with the most hits (earned or not) would keep getting more. However, that would be like having a "best-seller" list for books. You know the "best-sellers" are worth looking at more closely.

I rarely if ever visit any actual video blog unless I'm commenting and the comment pages of most blogs don't show the links.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Making directories
I love Steve Garfield's stuff in general and "Vlog Soup" in particular. Indeed, Steve's soups are super but that is because he knows how to take a lot of mediocre stuff (the best of each) and whip it into a super mix. I checked out some of his links and saw that he had a great eye for those few unique seconds in an otherwise boring vlog.

Since adding links to the videos themselves is too friggin' hard for the common man right now... Write like a blogger. A video description could look like this: "I saw Joe's attempt at making pancakes yesterday. This morning I decided to try it myself. I used to recipe Jane posted last month." With links to: - Joe's blog - Joe's entry with his failed pancake attempt - Jane's blog - Jane's recipe Adapt for your videos, spread some links around.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: making directories
and if it would work for other types of content. I would like to see a Digg for other types of news too, like politics or medicine. I dunno, I'm just thinking out loud.

He uses art as an example.That is a very good choice. I find that nine out of ten art vlogs I watch to be very boring. Then I see one which simply blows me away.Taste is a very subjective thing. Directories are the topic but what we really need arereviewers and people who filter content for us.You would quickly recognize those people who directed you to great material.You'd alsolearn to avoid those whose taste did not match yours. Directories without reviews are almost worthless.Analternative would be directories where vlog producers could postone-paragraph ads (their own review) for their vlog.
