Hi everyone Vlog Europe just sent out invites for 25 Vloggers to join the 1st ever Vlog Global Videoconference/Flashmeeting. We could only do 25 due to Flashmeeting's limits, but we will be streaming to a site equipped with chat. There was no criteria for the supertough task of selecting the 25 vloggers on the Flashmeeting beyond diversity. No elitism, no favorites, just diversity. We have encouraged invitees to have people in their town all join together to share one of the 25 slots if possible.
Text of the e-mail we sent to the invitees is below, which has info on time, content, etc. We'll send links for hte stream as soon as we have them, and hope as many people as possible can participate and watch. Cheers, Jeffrey and the Vlog Europeans ===== Hi. You are one of 25 vloggers throughout the globe invited to participate the 1st ever "Vlog Global" teleconference. We'd love for you to be there, and we hope you all can make this work so we can make it an annual *no-frills, no-cost, no bullshit Videoblogging Event*. *When: Saturday 18 October @ 9 AM Los Angeles, Noon in New York, 5 PM in London, 6 PM in Budapest, Midnight Sunday in Shanghai and 2 AM Sunday in Sydney* The Flashmeeting will be for 2.5 hours, 3 hours maximum. *Why*: The organizers of Vlog Europe are putting this together in order to *stand up for the Vlogging Sensibility* and *keep up the momentum of the Videoblogging community* worldwide. With no Vloggercamp, Vloggercon, etc. happening this year, we want to ensure that we are all keeping up with each other and are aware of what we are up to and what we all stand for. *Who:* The organizers of Vlog Europe are inviting *25 videobloggers from every corner of the earth* to participate in this call. We wish we could invite more, but Flashmeeting can only take 25 participants. *We will be streaming* the Flashmeeting to a streaming video site that has chat capability in order to ensure as many people can be in on the action as possible. * What*: *Each participant has the floor for two minutes to say or do whatever she or he wants. *If we have time for discussion, we'll do it, but Vlog Europe will moderate the slots and ensure everyone gets a chance to say whatever it is they want to say. No restrictions. We just want to see you or whatever of you you want us to see. Tell us what you're up to. Feed a video that you are proud of into the Flashmeeting. Whatever. It's your two minutes. *Where:* We will send you a link to the flashmeeting when you confirm your participation. *What You Need to Do:* 1. *RSVP by replying to this e-mail. *Please do this as soon as you can so we can give your slot to someone else if you cannot attend. October 15 is the deadline, but we'd really appreciate it if you'd let us know ASAP. 2. *Invite Vloggers in your town to share your slot. *We'd love to have as many people as possible in the flashmeeting itself, and it's always fun to hand with other vloggers. And that's it! We really really really hope you can attend. Really. Cheers, The Vlog Europeans [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
