[-empyre-] Found some video blogs.

Here are a couple of video blogs I've come across, in addition to 
Adrian's vog (http://hypertext.rmit.edu.au/vog):

Posts a video segment each day (or rather, with each update). No 
interactivity, but clearly a sense of video blogging.  Writes: "i am 
interested in creating software for easily producing a video weblog. 
as part of this investigation i thought it would be useful to begin 
by integrating video content with the blogger software that already 
exists. this will help me estimate the time involved in actively 
updating a video weblog everyday. a time commitment that must be 
factored into the design and functionality of the software i hope to 
produce... "

Also linear videos, but arranged in strange ways. Some tell little 
stories ("Bridge"), others are more about a mood.

And http://seriousmagic.com/soc.htm isn't really a blog, but is 
suggested here http://www.hit-or-miss.org/post/1372 as an example of 
how a new webcam-to-videoclip program might let you do video blogging.

Seems to be dead, but here the idea was to have a blog-like thing 
which instead of linking to other peoples' TEXT content, includes 
videoclips from other places in the blog. Obviously borrowing other 
peoples' content would be a good way out of the "but it's too hard to 
make it" argument that Katherine and others have pointed out. Have a 
look at the archives to see how it worked:

Well, that's all I can find right now, but there's obviously a start 
of something here. I liked Adrian's reminder of how long it took 
before blogs became mainstream - a few more years, and perhaps 
there'll be thousands of vogs?
