Given that I hold the strong personal belief that there is ONE technology (RSS Enclosure- casting /smirk) and DOZENS of genres, (videoblogs = one single genre), I'd say that you might be able to stick to four kinds of content, with two examples each.
Something show-like: These might emulate the *medium* (different from the industry) of television or theatre Rocketboom, TikiBarTV, Backstaging, CommandN Something news/info-like: Anything citizen journalistic, educational These can also be something designed for marketing purposes. Hey, check out videos that might interest your client like Snowboard or Golf videoblogs. Something personal-like: pick any vlog really No shortage here. Go find a kid's birthday party or soccer game. Personal stuff is the largest pool of content Something art-like: picky anything not necessarily personal or newsy, but artsy and/or abstract. Also might be created by a personal vlogger. Hope that helps and sorry for being balanced and level headed. ;-) ER --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Darryl Mitteldorf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm trying to describe vlogs and their potential to board members of my > nonprofit (it took me over an hour to explain what a podcast is, last > year).
