Respectfully, I disagree. There Cannot be any 'THE Videoblogging
group'. To speak of that is like to say there is a "THE" podcasting
group, or "THE" blogging discussion group.
Look at who created the first wiki, Ward Cunningham. He is credited
for his work, but he cannot claim that whatever wiki or mailing list
he created is THE wiki resource. The world moves on.
To me, this mailing list is the most important mailing list out there
on videoblogging, and as long as this community stays vibrant, it will
continue to grow and be the biggest/most important one. But, once
again, it cannot be The one. And that has nothing to do with my lack
of respect for this community or lack of appreciation of the
discussions going on here.
My suggestion: "The videoblogging yahoogroups". Because, after all,
the url is "groups.yahoo.com/group/videoblogging", and because it is
pretty generic. There can be only one 'videoblogging' yahoogroups;
others can create "The vogging yahoogroups" if they want. :)
Best,
