No, it's not. Not in that instance of reading. In iTunes anyway, FireANT is an exception because it retains links, displays text from the blog post and provides for an easy way to go to the blog post. Same as when you read a blog through any RSS reader. > Conversely, if you published epsiodes of Punky Brewster in your "blog template" with > sidebars links etc. that would constitute a videoblog? What would you consider > rocketboom??? It would have to be both according to your reasoning. No. I was not trying to put down a definition. I don't know where you got that idea. A definition would include other factors that exclude Deperate Housewives in a blog template (because they are not read as a blog). I was trying to get the point across that reading "videoblogs" in a blog, or in FireANT is a different ballgame than watching videoblogs on an iPod in the bus. > This convoluted thinking leads to greater confusion than clarification; particularly to the > greater audience not versed in RSS, feeds, aggregators etc. I'm talking with Michael Meiser. He's a smart guy. I'm not trying to talk to a general audience - If I was I wouldn't drop names like McLuhan in the middle of things. > I would argue a better, more useful distinction is one based on content. Being informal and personal is a factor in blogs, but it's just as big a factor in what I called video podcasting. You can't distinguish based on it. - Andreas ------------------------ Yahoo!
