Dina Kaplan: Why I Like Andy Abramson's Video Blog

by alec on September 16, 2006

Dina has posted some thoughts on Andy’s video blog.  Perhaps the most interesting comment she makes is this:

When we started blip.tv, we wondered: would videoblogging attract bloggers lured from text to video, or TV producer-types lured from traditional media to the net?

In a email conversation with me, Dina revealed that she was at one point a television reporter.  That would explain her on-camera presence, and the ease and speed with which she constructs a story.  It also might provide the answer to her question. 

Alec Saunders is the Vice President of Developer Relations for BlackBerry make Research in Motion. This is his personal blog, with his personal viewpoints. Prior to this Alec was the CEO and co-founder of Calliflower — the easiest way to hold a meeting, online, on a conference call, or on the go. A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.

Video blogging is kind of cool but i think it is more time consuming than regular text based blogs. i already have at least 1 video blog and 2 regular blogs.
