Finding interesting content that reasonates with one's own taste is a challenge 
not 
exclusive to videoblogging.  With the proliferation of new music out there 
since the home 
recording revolution, it is quite a challenge to find new music that isn't 
mainlined to you 
through MTV or corporate radio. You read reviews by reviewers whose judgement 
you 
trust, you sample songs on iTunes, you get tips from your friends.  One model 
I've found 
interesting is music plasma - http://www.musicplasma.com/

You type an artist and it gives you a graphical constellation of similar 
artists. I find it quite 
useful when searching out new music in whatever the genre are exploring.

In the embryonic development of videoblogging I'm sure innovators will come 
along to 
help organize the overwhelming amount of content.  Until then - the best buzz 
seems to 
be word of mouth.

I'm also curious if anyone doing anything innovative, unique to the 
videoblogging space in 
terms of marketing and publicity.  Apart from listing in the the various 
directories - and 
link swapping, what are some of the other techniques being used? Or is 
marketing a dirty 
word?
