So when I started videoblogging, I just saw blogs as an easy way to post and distribute video.
Nota: This info comes from metv.
I figured...great we'll just make TV on the web.
Unlike fucking around with html and websites, a Blog makes it incredibly easy to publish.
With RSS, anyone can subscribe to your blog...so getting your work out is a breeze.
Its just so logical.
After Peter and I started the videoblogging group, Andreas was one of the first to join...and he jumped right in.
I was just some video guy who'd become a community organizer...and
Andreas brought this whole other way of looking at online video to the
table.
I mean, i'd never even had a blog before.
At times he comes across as abrasive and rigid...which ive learned is his way of being very clear in this world of text.
And he's continued to make all our group conversations very clear and directed.
He even busted out our videoblogging website in a weekend...complete with an RSS feed of constantly updated videos.
Why am I saying all this?
Because he took Steve's new Videopodcast and turned it into something else.

Andreas has used a tool he made to add clickable links inside the video.
TV can never do this.
The tool is called the "Quicktime Thingie".
Try putting links in your videoblogs.
So imagine.
If everyone started putting links in their videos to other videos...you
could simply link to video after video after video....a huge
conversation.
Or put links to the things you talk about.
Andreas is always talking about the hyperlink nature of the web...and video can do this.
This is not TV.
