Re: [videoblogging] Re: Notices when someone posts a comment on your vlog.
commenting is pretty difficult for me, because we've started watching
videos on tv which is really good for us in that my wife can share in
the whole vlog experience, it's more relaxing, and we watch a LOT more
videos
... the draw back is that clearly it's less interactive, and I have to
go back the next day and comment, so I don't do it as much or as timely
... however, I've got to say, it's really fun to get comments, and it
really is a fundamental thing in what makes video blogging different

Like you, I realize how few people comment.
For that reason, I comment as often as I feel I have something valid to
say. I do resist negative comments in most cases but there are
exceptions.
Maybe, Blip or someone should be able to link
comments the way Amazon has a link that says 'See all the reviews this person
has done.

Randolfe I've commented on your blogs a few times but I do
it on your blog rather than on Blip. I enjoy comments too but really most
people don't bother. I average less than 1 comment per 500 views.
Speaking for my self, I only comment if something really moves me.

[videoblogging] Re: Notices when someone posts a comment on your vlog.
I think I'm liking this making-lists thing... I was analyzing the behaviors we
exhibit when
interacting with things, and there is a definite split in the
participatory/passive experience.
It started to point me in all sorts of directions and like my
explaining-RSS-with-pizza
analogy, it all comes back to food.
How to eat:
Cook, Make for yourself
Cook, Make for others
Cook, Make *with* others
Have someone kill, cook, make for you
Translate that to publish, participate, or strictly consume. I'm not convinced
that any of
these are mutually exclusive--in fact, as DIY as I like to think I am,
sometimes I just want
to zone out and take what's given to me. Crikey, McDonald's is awful, but
dammit I am SO
running late and I am dyin' here. Repace food with the various environments and
social
differences between videoblogcasts.
Side note: while I don't comment as much as I used to on vlogs, what I found
that I do is
collect my favorites and carry them with me. That's neither participatory nor
consuming,
but rather interactive and intimiate. It's also evangelical.
Some of you are vlogging to the weirdest places. ;-)

I don't have to be "blown away" by a vlog. If
it is really enjoyable and/or has some unique interesting quality, even if I can
see someone was trying very hard to accomplish something, I feel a few minutes
of "free" entertainment deserves some words of thanks.
