I'm glad to see you are thinking in this direction and I think your plan sounds like a good one ...

Re: [videoblogging] Starting a conversation about money
I've never been of the "money is evil" school - in fact, I rather like money! What you propose sounds reasonable to me, similar to other business models that are springing up all over the place (Google Video, Brightcove), all of them voluntary. The PSP twist might give you enough of a niche to compete against them. Go for it; I'll be happy to try it out.-- best regards,Deirdré Straughanwww.straughan.com (personal)www.tvblob.com (work) YAHOO! GROUPS LINKS Visit your group "videoblogging" on the web.

[videoblogging] Starting a conversation about money
I'd like to start an intelligent conversation about money. Right now, I am moving Mefeedia to a dedicated server. That costs some money. And more imnportantly, I am spending a lot of time on it. So I'm thinking about ways to perhaps turn it from a hobby into a business. The same issues arise for blip.tv, ant and other businesses, so feel free to add to this conversation guys. I think if we can have a conversation here, then perhaps the vloggers can steer the future into a path that they like. So that'd be cool. So here's 1 idea I am playing with. Let's say Mefeedia can get your vlog accessible on the PSP, and through the PSP users paying a fee or something we make some $$, and give you a % of that, maybe half. Only if you opt-in of course. That way you get more viewers, and make some $$ of it, and Mefeedia makes some $ too for making the deals and the software to make this possible.. You would still have you videoblog wherever you want, nothing would change, all you need to do is opt in at mefeedia to allow this. Would that make sense? Good? Evil? This is just one crazy idea, I'm just trying to see what people think about things like this.. Cheers, Peter Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> Get Bzzzy! (real tools to help you find a job).
