The big media do it, so why don't we? Let's put trailers in our videos that promote other vlogs we like. Everyone could make their own trailer for their podcast; post it somewhere, maybe in a central repository; and others could include them in their videos as they see fit. I'd be happy to include a five- or 10-second clip with Crash Test Kitchen episodes.
There are some vlogs out there attracting a fair-sized audience and getting exposure through the likes of iTunes. I'm happy with how Crash Test Kitchen is doing and I notice other people on this list cropping up in the Top 100 podcasts. We haven't yet, but we got on the front page once! I'm sure there are other vlogs equally worthy of exposure that, for no good reason, haven't been in the limelight so much. They could benefit if the higher-rated podcasts helped promote them. The big media are already starting to bombard podcasting, so let's stake our claim as a group. We could brand ourselves as the Independent Video Podcast Network or something more catchy. A catchy animation, logo or something would help with the branding. I know there are some people doing similar things - like Steve Garfield with his Vlog Soup - and I think we should take it a step further. Waz www.crashtestkitchen.com ------------------------ Yahoo!
