This has really got me thinking. I love that videoblogging is getting more and
more
widespread on the internet (themed, un-themed, series', whatever, I really
don't care), and
I think it's all just a natural extension from text. So natural, in fact, that
my blog was only
text-based for a couple of posts before I decided to steer toward a vlog
instead. It just
seemed like the obvious next thing to do with it. Actually, my (v)blog remains
a mishmash
of text and video. I have no plans on streamlining it to be either one or the
other, and I
don't yet plan to split it in two and carry on with both. Sometimes I just
have to write it
out. Sometimes video is better.
Lucas, you needn't be saddened by the impending war on text. There won't be
one. BUT
there should be exploration down textless avenues...it's only natural. Not to
mention cool
as hell. I want as many of my senses as active as possible while I interact
with people, and
that's really what this is all about ("I susbscribe to people."--Steve
Garfield). If we can get
as far as a Smell-o-vlog, I can die happy.
