Yes, when I started, I liked watching everything, because it was endlessly fascinating to watch strangers' lives. I'm more selective now. I still subscribe to a bunch of vlogs that I don't watch much of. > > Caveat: If it's the vlog of someone I've met in person, or gotten to > > know elsewhere, then it's automatically interesting enough to watch. > > But not necessarily interesting enough to show other people. > > I would think the opposite would be true, at least for me, and don't > you think that in a way you do get to know people from there vlogs? > Especialy if they do share their lives. I do, which is why I subscribe to vlogs that I don't watch. I subscribe for a while, decide if I'm watching them regularly enough. If not, then I eventually take them off my main vlog subscriptions. Oh, and I'd second the "short = good" comment. The longest vlog I subscribe to is Icenrye, and I have to say, I think it could be about 1/4 the length. Frequently, a lot of it (20 minutes or more) is him just talking to the camera, which could be done just as well in text or even audioblog format on the site, and then save the video download MB's for the stuff that's actual video. BUT, I keep it as an example of "long-format videoblogging." Unfortunately, it takes a very long time to download, and for power settings reasons, I can't just leave my downloads running overnight. --Stephanie -- Stephanie Bryant [EMAIL PROTECTED] Blogs, vlogs, and audioblogs at: http://www.mortaine.com/blogs Yahoo!
