Re: [videoblogging] Disclosures, disclosures
I've certainly been exposing myself a lot lately. (Hey, I thought that was a safe term around camera people!!) You know, coming out of the woodwork, in the group and in my vlog. I teach about technology so I have to (and want to) keep up with what's going on, especially anything that may be important for my students. I'm also a business consultant and coach so I'm pondering how vlogging can be useful to my clients. This includes thinking about the business model, and promotion opportunities, so if I have any insights, I'll share them with you. I've worked a lot in multimedia and continue to be interested in how mutlimedia accelerates learning, improves retention, and communicates a message. I like playing with new techie toys, and I like to share fun, happiness, joy, and amusement with others, hence my vlog. My hidden agenda is to get everyone laughing, every day. --Beth R.

How about we all disclose our affiliations? Too radical, eh? I am currently employed by a media/publishing company. I'm just a lackey, I am not some big decision maker. As far as I know the company will not be attempting to sell any products related to any sort of blogging, video or otherwise. I am part of this group for myself, not because of my current employer. I also do work for myself and people I know. It's creative work (design and programming) and I have no plans to issue any press releases or plug any sort of products on this list. Self-promotion is something I've really never done, probably to own detriment. :/ To sum things up, I think videoblogging is fun, and cool, and revolutionary, so that's why I'm here, and why I have a videoblog.

Re: [videoblogging] Disclosures, disclosures
Here's mine: I am a technical writer. I work for a semiconductor company in Milpitas, California. I keep my day job out of my blog/vlog. I am also a computer book writer, and wrote a couple of books on mainly Internet technologies a couple of years ago. If I get a book contract for a videoblogging book (hope hope hope maybe), I will follow the terms of my contract in disclosing that fact. I may or may not be permitted to do so immediately-- we'll see. However, what typically happens with these things is that I'm given 2 weeks to write a 500 page book, which is so absurd it's basically a recipe for failure and/or hiring out chapters to other writers. If that happens, I'll be fishing in this community for good writers to help out. Most likely, though, I won't get the book and instead will be freelancing again or staying at my current staff job. In any case, I'm basically a content producer for the tech industry in one way or another-- that's my affiliation. Like all freelancers, I'm looking to make a buck off of my talent. Like many, though, I realize the type of content I love to produce is probably not the same content that others want to pay for. Professionally, I also do technical training and presentations. Right now, I'm not leveraging that into video. --Stephanie On 8/8/05, R. Kristiansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: How about we all disclose our affiliations?

RE: [videoblogging] Disclosures, disclosures
If I may, let me present a fuller disclosure than before: I am not a CBS/Viacom spy. I am not one of the higher-ups at Viacom. I am not participating in this group for my job. I am not a comapny man. I am not what I do (Jean-Paul Sartre aside, perhaps I should rephrase that as: I am not what I do for a living). In fact, I joined this group before I worked for CBS, though I had a different username then. That's not too important as I did not participate. As I explained in my introductory post, I work for a television staion. A CBS OO, to be precise. What is an OO? It is a television station that is Owned Operated by the network. Most television stations in the US are affiliates, which means the stations belong to a company that pays for network programming. Sort of like a franchise. My last job was at KRON in San Francisco. It is an independent (meaning no network affiliation) station owned by Young Broadcasting. Young Brodcasting owns something like ten television stations of different affiliation (URL: http://www.youngbroadcasting.com/ireye/ir_site.zhtml?ticker=YBTVAscript=11905item_id=%27stations.htm%27 ). When I was three, I decided I wanted to make movies. I was a film/video major in college. I ended up in television and then the Internet side of television. I have always been interested in communication, particularly visual communication. I know that television is evolving and/or dying. I agree wholeheartedly with those who think there is almost nothing but crap on the tube. I annoy people at work by telling them we'll all be out of jobs in a few years and television as we know it won't exist. I am excited by the possiblities that are now available to millions of individuals who want to communicate and create. I guess what I am saying is: I am not CBS. I am not Viacom. They just happen to sign my paychecks. It's a job. In my television career I have worked for Viacom, Young Broadcasting, Lin Television, Argyle, and PBS. I never swore an oath of fealty to any of them, though I do like to do good work. I am involved here because I choose to be and because I want to participate in the evolution that is underway. Anyway, I hope that quells any fear others may have about my affiliation with the MSM. If you have further questions of me, post them or email me. For what it is worth, I have enjoyed reading the disclosures others have posted. So, I hope there are more to come. -David From: R.

Not surprising as such, but interesting. I am happy to know, at least. How about we all disclose our affiliations? Too radical, eh? There are many actors in this field with plans. Plans for how to use the information we achieve through this forum for our own projects, goals, economic growth. This mailing-list is very rich with content, and it is amazing how potent it still is. Sometimes, we as a group react like an angry mob when someone tickles with us. I can only refer to the story of a certain film producer.. We as a group provide important feed-back to tool-makers like FireANT, Apple (for iTunes), feedburner and so on. If you are working on a tool for videobloggers and go about your promotion of your site in a good way (like Matt did with vlogmap.org), you can get a Lot of link love within days. Disclosures are important, but we cannot expect that all those lurkers will disclosure their identity. We know that we are being watched, though. I sometimes get frigging paranoid with I think that over 80 individuals are subscribed to my lousy videoblog. Who are they? What do they want? Entertainment? A piece of Norway? Unlike Josh Leo's site, for instance, I don't get a lot of comments so people are being mostly quiet about how they are watching. I expect that we will see a lot of instances like Hello, I am from Warner Bros, I have been observing this community for months now, and we will now be launching X concept. No wait, they won't write it here. They will issue a press release ffs. So, disclosures. My own, in case you haven't seen it: I work for BlogSoft, a Norwegian blogging software company. We are thriving well in the Norwegian and Swedish market (where Six Apart is not active), and we are working on tools for videoblogging now. Tools like Youtube or Blip.tv. but more centered around a blog and with better blogging tools. We create portals for media companies like the Norwegian tv station TV2. We are looking at ways to do video mobileblogging. I am part of this community, and also I observe this community. Sometimes I feel rather xenophobic :) Out of the 1100 subscribers to this mailing list, I guess we have heard from perhaps 400. Are there any numbers on this, Jay? The majority are,
