1) "Minority bloggers" on this list can introduce themselves if they want. No surprise that the digital divide in technology and access to broadband is reflected in vloggers as in other parts of society. No doubt there are more white guys vlogging than women and people of color. That said, there are lots of vloggers of color and women vlogging.
2) To see vlogs from different parts of the world, check out vlogmap.org. You'll notice a lot more vlogs in North America and Europe than the rest of the world. Still, there's some cool stuff out there in the wider world. 3) Like with any mass of people there are many cliques, not in a bad way; that's just the way people socially organize. I think there can be a certain camaraderie among people who started vlogging around the same time. I've seen tons of people start vlogging and become active and influential in their own way. Seems pretty open to me. Some of the early people who started this list or were on it early like Jay Dedman, Michael Verdi, Zadi Diaz, and a bunch of other people have been very active in creating compelling work, writing books, speaking to conferences, teaching, etc. and remain very influential. But that doesn't mean they or anyone else control what's going on. It's too big for that. --- In [email protected], JOHNNIE WARNER <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > .....well you know johnny(which is a great name, spelled a little > funny but still a great name) when i look at the videos and discuss > with my circle of friends, vlogging seems to be used synonymously > with youtube ie. > > Hey johnnie, did you youtube that new software for the treo > or > Johnnie, i've seen your youtube on creating and viewing your email on > youtube.(i know it sound kinda ridicuoulous, but that is what > videocasting/vlogging has been refered to outside of this group and > those associated with it.
