Hehehe, Pat, Pat, Pat,
I was not referring in any way to any individual post - most
certainly not yours - but the discussion itself - long, arduous, and often
heated. My point is why should we engage in discussions here if podcasters
are doing such a good job of it over there? In no way did I insinuate that
podcasters do not support charity.
Just wanted to say that the podcast group feels much more
amped up all the time than our wee group. It is my hope that the Videoblog Group
will never get that way.

podcast-a-thon / podcast awards
Hi everyone:
At 04:16 AM 8/3/2005, you wrote:
The podcasters are
discussing a podcastathon and podcastawards.com on their yahoo group for
those of you who are interested in such things. Which is not to say I think
we should discuss either here but rather let the podcasters discuss it to
death and note their conclusions so we don't have
to.
I'm aware of the discussions Jan, but beyond
that....*Huh???* *scratching head*
In fact, discussions
about a vlogathon are ongoing (through the initiatives of mostly Raymond
& Chuck) over at http://www.screenvlog.com/vlogathon/
if you want to participate and personally, I think you should
:)
We shoot for a Thanksgiving 2005 date
around which to do this thing. Based on yesterday's videoconference, looks
like we like the idea of raising money for kids somehow, kids and
media.
It isn't that we podcasters don't like the idea
of doing something for charity. It's just that there are technical
issues which, like it or not, simply cannot be avoided. And since we're
talking about using video, this brings about more issues.
I never said
on the podcasters group that a Podcast-A-Thon wouldn't work (though admittedly
I did use those words, which was a poor judgement on my part). What i
was aiming at was the fact that it would have to be done differently than the
original poster had thought. I basically said that about the only
way it would work was if there was a centralized place with a lot of
bandwidth for one to upload their podcasts (a.k.a KYOURadio.com, which would
be prime for something like this assuming Viacom would be interested in
pitching in) and for people to subscribe to the feed and download
podcasts.
OTFS, unlike us podcasters, there is no place like
KYOURadio.com type of website for us video bloggers to utilize (I don't count
the IA because it would be useless in a time sensitive
environment/situation). This needs to change. Jay, any chance that
MNN might somehow step up to the plate to fill this void? Steve G. or
Ryanne, what about Boston area CA TV? Would they be interested in
stepping up?
I wished I could've jumped in on yesterday's video
conference (even if all I can do right now is audio only till I get a better,
more updated cam), but alas, I digress... I'll just have to wait till
next time. :-) In the meantime, anyone have an idea when the
archive from yesterday will be ready? Just wonderin'
:-)
Cheers for now :-)
