When Joost has.... ok, for sake of argument i'll say... -IF- Joost has a great library of content that includes a plethora of content from indie production houses along side with some MSM... and its brought to you on almost any platform... streaming TV quality video using smart technology (we know the core is solid)... Then it's something that I DO want. Don't know about saving the world or anything like that but I'm not going to "not be interested" in it just because it isn't directly related to videoblogs or RSS or being allowing you to upload or remix media and so on. So yeah, it is a different category but it's also related to net video in general which is why its being talked about. It doesnt have to do with "Communication" or the "Conversation" that blogging brings us... at least not yet. I know. But sometimes content is still king.
Make it easy to move videoblogs, YouTube clips etc. to my TV - then we'll be > talking. Maybe, but if I want, I can plug in my puter to a TV and "watch the internet". Cannot most people do this if it is so important? But most of the -clips- quality is not meant for TVs, so I dont really bother doing that. Besides, a 17inch laptop screen or 20inch desktop monitor is fine by me ;) The key really is about longtail verses midtail verses MSM content etc. i think we all enjoy a mix. Whats great about vlog tech, especially in the context of "shows", is that it allows you to gain a foothold... put your stuff out there, build an audience, practice and maybe open up opportunities so that you can spend more time and more money on more content of higher quality. While a vlog can always live as a companion presence... its logical to expect some good productions to move on and use HD and get syndicated on services like Joost and many others, while still maintaining a web presence with a feed. sull On 2/6/07, Deirdre Straughan < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Joost considered in a different category I have no problems with.
