Re: [videoblogging] I/ON: Now Mefeedia-Powered!

i've seen flash multimedia eBooks/online mags but in every instance, it was custom made and no actual generator was used. 
Would be nice, and I imagine we'll see some new software to do these things much easier than typical authoring environments.

I have thought the same. When I ran readthat.com I found the distribution quite tricky – was a pain asking for different formats and an even bigger pain converting them all etc.

… I started to wonder whether any of you Flash whizzes would not be able to create a packed app that included the text, audio and any video in the same way. I.e. you point at resources and they are all included the result is a nice flash applet that can run in browser, pda and so on. I have seen the beginnings of this on some podcast sites that play the audio with no download (other than Flash).

 

In summary is there no-one out there that could create this *just now* and make themselves a few $ in the meantime?

good point.
it'll be a powerful thing.  i've always felt that cross-platform compiled multimedia eBooks would one day boom. 
going back to 2001, the only solution that i was impressed with was TK3 by Night Kitchen (http://nightkitchen.com).
Their software still has not been updated yet still may be the only multimedia eBook technology that works on both Win and Mac.

Multimedia Acrobat  and/or deriviate software would be  nice to see on the marketplace.  It would be feasible to distribute vlogs within these 'wrappers'.

Well, why do you think Adobe bought Macromedia? :)
It's coming...
