It matters because... Already lots of folks have got their minds around 'vlogging' 'videoblogging' 'vee-logging' and say the words.
They are not particularly beautiful in the mouth. Nor are they terribly catchy or descriptive to the uninitiated. I blame 'blogging'. I blame 'podcasting'. I blame 'video'. All blamed for not having thought well about what they called these activities. We are left with speaking the typing the ugly results. Where are the nomenclators? Does changing the time-based nature of the activity change its 'blog' nature? Time-based syndication has changed with the advent of FeedCycle - http://www.feedcycle.com/feed/10104/ You can tell your stories now with a bit more control.
