Funny, you
would mention an idea like this. I walked down 8th Street in NYC the other
evening. First, there was a "games store" which was closed but had a bunch
of people painting figurines which were for sale in the front window.
Thought that would be interesting.
I hadn't
gone a block before I found myself passing in front of a "Modeling and
Sculpture" school. That would be another interesting
vlog.
Suddenly, I
thought what a great serial-vlog it would be to go block by block in NYC doing
vlogs about the most interesting thing on each block. If you were teaching
a class on vlogging, you could just take a section of the City, give each
student a block and leave it up to them to pick something on that block to
videotape and create a vlog about.
This would
create a fascinating social history. One could dedicate one's life to
doing it alone but I would get tired after a while.
Commercially, I could imagine store's being willing to pay XXX dollars to
have a vlog done about them. That wouldn't interest me and will probably
be considered "off topic" and "business" on this
list.
Still, I
think the idea of creating a series of vlogs around the idea of blocks, or even
"art galleries", or restaurants, whatever, would be
interesting.
I think a
series on venues for "comedy" would be uniquely funny and interesting to those
interested in comedy.

Subject: [videoblogging] Re: Portable
Video. I'm not sure I give a crap. I want to, but I don't get it.
Basically anyone who uses the existing podcast features may
want to
have video rather than just audio.
Travelers for one.
They may want to use their (soon-to-be-available)
Tivo-2-Go service to dump
recorded shows down to their portable
device. Then there would be no
need to buy 'Lost' from iTunes if you
have Tivo and could transfer
it. Another option would be for tour
guide stuff. For example,
you could get info on places to
eat/shop/drink in NYC from a local
vlogger.
Personally, I do not have much of a need either, but I
recognize this
as having huge potential. I'm a big fan of themed
content and don't
really care for personal-diary style stuff. Even
the people I do
"know" are hard to watch do nothing. The biggest
reason I could
justify buying a video iPod would be to take it out and
share video
with others.
Basically it comes down to this.
Rather than being limited to
recieving video on your television or
computer, you could take it
anywhere once it is on the iPod. That
makes you a walking media
center. You could plug it into any TV or PC
and watch it there.
Rumor has it that Apple is working on wireless for
the iPod so that
you really could broadcaster to others around
you.
Again, the content isn't really here yet. Or at least not
enough of
it or the type of content to justify my purchase.
