Generally speaking I'm the same as Josh Kinberg: 3 mins/ 25 MB. But it depends on a lot of factors. If there is a good text description of the video I'm more likely to watch, if I don't know what I'll be watching my patience with the piece is very low. Often I don't click through at all because the payoff is not obvious.
For anything longer than 3 mins that also look really really good I'll download and watch later. That usually mean "sit on my desktop for a week or two before watching". Then you and I lose out on the great things about videoblogging (feedback, networked communication) because I switch from viewing it as a blog to viewing it as I would a tv program. - Andreas On Mon, 16 Jan 2006 07:22:48 +0100, Stephanie Bryant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I find myself revisiting this question every time I post a large file > to my vlog. > > How much is too much?
