here's how I feel about vloggercon '07. it should be more like a film festival, than the how to thingy that last years was, there was too much time spent on the subjects of how I do it, net neutrality, copyright etc. Sod That!! Yawn Boring! I spent most of the Sunday session outside smoking and talking to interesting people.
We should all get an invite like Irina did for the vloggies, no matter where it will be held, and it should be a competition, but more than that, if we could get hold a great big screen, loads of people, not just us can see what we are capable of doing and raise awareness that there is more than just TV shows, Films, Porn or happyslapping videos on the visual side of the internet. Vloggercon 07, should be Vloggercon 3: The power of the vlog or something like that, and even if those who can't attend due to distance or money problems should be at least be allowed to show. This should be a celebration for all the hours of unpaid work, to expose those who aren't as popular, as well as the cream de la creme. In fact, how's about less attention be paid to the popular types, and more emphasis on those that are trying.
