I submitted a proposal to the Association for Internet Researchers conference called "A Brief History of the Video Blog".
The conference is in October in Vancouver. I submitted it to a category on "aesthetic/creative presentations", and it was accepted. I have submitted a zillion papers to conferences and presented them over the years, since that's something that professors at research universities do, but I've never submitted anything in a category like that, nor have I even been at many conferences where such a category existed, so I pretty much have no idea what I'm doing, though I'm having fun. In any case, the project is to cover the video blog community, as represented by the yahoo group, within the context of my own experience through: a) a Video Blog (oddly enough :); b) A short documentary; and c) A short summary presentation at the conference. Anyway, I created the first video of the proposed vlog. The post is available here: <http://richardshow.org/show/2007/07/09/vlog-history-1-changed-my-life/> I am posting all these to the Richard Show under a vlog history category, so you can find all videos here: http://richardshow.org/show/category/vloghistory Also, I posted my proposal, link to the vlog, and link to a resource page I'm starting, here http://richardshow.org/show/vloghistory (I even registered vloghistory.org, that points to that page). I will include a few interviews that I did over a year ago at vloggercon, which I'm finally editing, brief snippets are included in this first video. I would also love to hear your personal vlog history in the form of a video, and would do my best to include parts of the video in my project. So, if you do make a video that discusses your own history with vlogging and/or your thoughts on vlogging history in general and/or anything you think might be related, please email me and tell me where the video is available. (If you have a high resolution/uncompresed version it would be particularly cool for me to use in creating videos). Best Regards ...
