There is no reason to be down on, or blame main stream media. Its not anyone's fault. The 
limited access has been a restriction of technology.

Growing up with only 3 stations on TV, its not hard to imagine how it came to be that it 
would be expensive to deal with.

Now that technology has bloomed, media can bloom.

 step in increased efficiency.
 
 TO look at it from the bigger picture you add the queueing, to the 
 tagging, to the play anytime and anywhere and what we're really seeing 
 is more systems for inter-mediation going into the pipe as well as 
 coming out of the pipe. All these systems like delicious, flickr, 
 mefeedia, are all teaching us something about being able to better 
 bubble up content.
 
 BTW, As far as I can see Odeo will work perfectly with video blogs and 
 ANT. It uses a single RSS feed and pipes all the content in the queue 
 and all your subscriptions through one feed, so it's completely 
 aggregator independent. That said, it's still very much in beta. Most 
 obviously, it only seems to pick up about 1 in every 8 of my video

I was quite humbled when I paid a visit within CNN and Turner. There
are some really progressive minds in there who are hampered by legacy
modes of operations and layers of approval and/or political boundaries.

There's a mutual learning experience on both sides at work here
between indies and mass media groups.

[videoblogging] Re: CBS starting a podcast (Response To David)

2005-08-07 Thread Gena




Thank you for telling me that you work for Viacom. Disclosure is
important for true communication.

Point 1. Yes. You are correct. I did react. I shared how I felt when I
read about a huge multi-billion dollar corporation with multiple
routes of access using a tool they really don't need. 

I see it more of the carpet baggers are coming to town.

Point 2. I have no intention of entering the contest. Trust me, they
don't want someone like me and the feeling is mutual.

Point 3. You are correct. That is exactly what they are doing.
Appearing to be on the vanguard is not the same as taking the time
to find out what is actually needed. It just seems like a huge wolf in
sheep's clothing. I am not and could not deny Viacom anything. They
have the right to explore new business avenues. Go for it. It doesn't
mean I have to like or trust it without a foundation of facts.

Point 4. MSM have been napping. Some companies haven't a clue and will
no longer exist. I'm not a total luddite. I know that in the future
there will be interesting synergies with independent producers and
media outlets. I hope the compensation for the IPs is a lot more fair
than in the past. But that is a long way off.

Point 5. I mean this type of contest is old hat. It was done by radio
in the 30's. Teen magazines use to do this, Early TV did this.

This is a controlled marketing campaign. Nothing more. This has
nothing to do with letting alternative podcasters do their thing. If
you want to do it, go for it and I support you. Prove me wrong. (I am
at wrong at least six times a day!) I stand by my statement. Crap.

Point 6. Anybody who make the effort to put together a show is jake
with me. Even MSM. I wish MSM would do it better but I am not holding
my breath. I gave my thoughts as to what I believe they are thinking.
 
Point 7  8 They have done what!?! They don't even know what CJ or
Participatory Media is. They are scared to death of it. Please show me
a MSM web site that consistently takes video content from bloggers and
post that video as a news story. I know of one instance in San
Francisco and they just snagged the video from the Internet and did
not contact the blogger. He had to contact them and get his money and
credit due him.
 
I feel a major rant coming on so I'm gonna leave this one alone. This
is a promotional contest for the new television season. 

Bottom Line:

There is an open window here. Information travels both ways. I do not
hate MSM. I do not trust MSM based upon my life experience and how
that experience has not been reflected in MSM. I am not against
capitalism or the chance to make a buck or two. 

But I am and will be continue to be alert. This is no longer a passive
medium. If you are game then we can continue the dialog outside of the
group.

I would prefer to see the discussion remain here. I think it's
completely on topic.

This topic is revolving around two senses of the term "podcasting".
First, merely a distribution channel. Second, a means of hearing people
discussing topics that won't play in a scarce medium (as
opposed to hearing undiscovered talent of hollywood caliber). Clearly,
what CBS proposes fits the first definition but not the second at all.
