Funny, you would mention an idea like this. I walked down 8th Street in NYC the other evening. First, there was a games store which was closed but had a bunch of people painting figurines which were for sale in the front window. Thought that would be interesting. I hadn't gone a block before I found myself passing in front of a Modeling and Sculpture school. That would be another interesting vlog. Suddenly, I thought what a great serial-vlog it would be to go block by block in NYC doing vlogs about the most interesting thing on each block. If you were teaching a class on vlogging, you could just take a section of the City, give each student a block and leave it up to them to pick something on that block to videotape and create a vlog about. This would create a fascinating social history. One could dedicate one's life to doing it alone but I would get tired after a while. Commercially, I could imagine store's being willing to pay XXX dollars to have a vlog done about them. That wouldn't interest me and will probably be considered off topic and business on this list. Still, I think the idea of creating a series of vlogs around the idea of blocks, or even art galleries, or restaurants, whatever, would be interesting. I think a series on venues for comedy would be uniquely funny and interesting to those interested in comedy.

[videoblogging] Re: Portable Video. I'm not sure I give a crap. I want to, but I don't get it.
I dont think anybod is exactly sure of how big the portable video market will be, the stuff you point out will be true for many people. Heres some reasons I think some people will go for that stuff: Social factors - showing people you know (at school, college, work etc) video clips that you have found interesting, funny etc. This already seems to be happening where I work with mobile phones, people sending eachother silly stuff. If I was still at school or college I can well imagine loading up the ipod with the latest gems to show my peers the next day. Watching on public transport - for all we know there will be an increase in public transportation use over the coming decades, and whilst certain locations arent exactly compatible with that, I dont believe the culture of the car will necessarily last forever. (Still Im mostly a pedestrian and I certainly cant watch video whilst walking along, extremely difficult and dangerous really. Power cuts. Im not an optimist so I expect more of these in future. Watch ipod stuff on TV - I mostly watch ipod videos with it connected up to the television. There are other ways to watch stuff from the internet on the TV, but I dont like wasting blank dvds or having to leave the computer on to watch stuff on the TV. There are non-portable devices that will probably come to dominate this market, but the ipod suits me well for now. I do not necessarily think this stuff will be all that compelling to the marjority of people, I dont expect portable video to be as popular as portable music, and the technology has some way to go to offer the best possible experience (better battery, larger screen, wearable, more rugged, whatever) Anyway the portable stuff and the 'pay to download music videos, films, tv shows' could really be seen as seperate issues, Id be interested to see what proportion of people buying videos from itunes are actually watching them on the ipod.

[videoblogging] Re: Portable Video. I'm not sure I give a crap. I want to, but I don't get it.
I'd buy one for the video. Ever take public transportation? Ever sit in a waiting room? Ever have to sit and wait for anything? Portable video can make those moments a little more bearable. Plus the fact that it would be a good link between my computer and my TV with the TV out functions and all. I have an old audio iPod but I'd rather have one that plays video. Of course debating if an ipod that does video will or won't be a success is kind of moot now. It already is. And I can apprecheate the fact that it's created a whole new audiance that is interested in searching out new video content. I had the experience of meeting someone last weekend who had started watching my video blog because he won a free video ipod and went looking for video content for it. The only free content for it now is video podcasts or video blogs. I don't think that his experience will be unique.

Viral videos 11. Commercials (commercials can be a cultural and entertainment phenom.. I'd love to get my favorite commercials... that's why there are/were ad sites.

Maybe it's a bug? And while I might not be always in the mood for participatory consumption, I certainly *collect* media for my own personal collection. That could lead to a scalable economy. If any of my favorite vloggers released a different/improved/special kind of content, would I buy it? Well, *I* would. And I could still use the iPod as an evangelism tool. Oh and yes, photos are huge on the iPod. So are short clips from the birthday party of my son that his grandma keeps on her iPod. Culturally, that's something conceptually new instead of the photos in your wallet, it's the videos in your wallet. I also have no idea why in public, people gather around an ipod to watch video with no sound. I mean that silly little small, crisp, gorgeous screen can't be *that* compelling. ;-) I'm part of the dopey crowd. I'll go out of my way to make media that makes sense for the small screen. I'll continue to draw a crowd in public that can huddle around and watch. My parents will still watch videos of their grandkids on their ipods and my kids will watch some stuff on theirs in the car. And while it might not be able to make a sandwich, I'll certainly *show* you how to make a sandwich and give you a list of ingredients and slicing instructs that you can take to your local deli and get them to do the same. And that's part of how we change things. Although your personal mileage may vary.

I'm trying not to feel a little hurt by that ;)) I guess what I mean is that I watch tv on my tv. And I watch vlogs on my computer be they shows, personal diaries, mini-movies, series or whatever else: I have room in my heart for all styles and formats. It's a format that's computer-based. It doesn't seem to belong on my tv, or in my pocket. Perhaps because it's become such a part of my daily routine (morning coffee, refresh Fireant, save me from morning magazine-news tv programs, thank God) that I'd have a hard time doing it a different way. I can be stubborn, yes, but it can't just be me. Is it just me? Also, iTunes doesn't even have a seperate section for uploading podcasts (back off, wordmavens--I'm using podcasts for now because it's easier)with video so that one could browse around,

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Portable Video. I'm not sure I give a crap. I want to, but I don't get it.
When checking out flights, consider Newark as well as JFK if international flights go there. Rooms are pricey in NYC. "Priceline" and other search engines allow you to type in the times you need and the rates you want to pay. You won't need any car in NYC. It would be a nightmare. We use public transportation. This list might be a good place for vloggers to "host" each other for the big conference in April. Wouldn't staying with another vlogger be more fun? And saving $100 or so a night would leave money for cabs and restaurants. You could also stay a day or two longer to take in some sightseeing.

More fab video ipod uses revealed! It's all making more sense. I have the same issue with attention. Music lends itself far better to backgound.

I do understand your question though. Video takes (for me anyway) a bit more attention than music to enjoy ... and so you cant really (or at least I cant) enjoy video while driving or trying to write a document etc... However I live my lil' video iPod. I spend alot of time in air ports for example. I often find myself there waiting for hours trying to get on an earlier standby flight. Video iPod for the win! I usualy have at least a handfull of videos on there I havent gotten around to watching yet, and there are always the favorites that I cant get enough of. Airports, on long train rides etc. Also, the iPod is a pretty good transport method for media (not just a viewing platform, but also a mobile hard disk). So I can totally imagine business uses ... video presentations (techincal, advertising, legal, all sorts of stuff) could be stored on the ipod and easily plugged into a conference room projector when you arrive at the client site. I've got a bunch of videos that I'm dying to show some of my family ... they aren't interested in finding video on the web, but I at the holidays I can plug in the iPod to the TV and introduce them to some of the content right in the living room. - Dave -- http://www.DavidMeade.com Yahoo!
