Re: [videoblogging] The FTC sucks...
Actually, you make a pretty decent preface there for the argument that *sales* sites should pay more for access because they make money, whereas the blogs, vlogs, and schlogs, hobby sites, free radio and video, etc etc should always have reliable, broadband, free access on solid peered networks. I'll go for that! /r On 6/29/07, Ron Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It will help the consumer, but hurt the citizen. There is a big difference between getting your shit that you bought delivered and getting access to stuff that is out there. Delivery vs Access... That's the frames we're working with guys. ATT wants to be able to 'deliver you the (their) world', and people like you and I just want access. I've been through this before on this list, and I still believe that it holds true. If the debate is framed in terms of 'delivery': products being bought, sold, packaged shipped, etc. If this is the frame for the debate, we are in trouble. Our stuff just gets in the way of people getting stuff that 'they actually paid for'. Quite literally, by definition, our kind of media impacts the 'consumer'. It's all going to make sense because it's true. Net Neutrality does impact the consumer. It makes them have to pay less. Consumers SPEND,SPEND,SPEND, not save, save, save. Net Neutrality is an absolute requirement if the internet is going to be more than an 'information market'. Without Net Neutrality, our information, 'all information' will become a commodity and it will be sold to the highest bidder, and guess what? Most real live breathing people will not be able to compete with the $10 Billion in quarterly profit of an Exxon. It's nothing for them to shell out $50K, heck even $500K to get good access, especially when that access is unchallenged. In fact, I would even argue that for them to do business it is imperative that they clamp down on all the cheap and rapid development of today's internet. It cost more to print the literature for an obsolete 2 year old running IT project than it would be to pay a $50,000 flat fee for privileged internet access. Get evolution to a manageable pace, restrict access and consolidate power. That's what the destruction of Net Neutrality offers them. I think that the big companies can't compete in a Net Neutral internet. There's just too much overhead. Layers and layers of bureaucracy, layers and layers of costs that must be born because of instantaneously shifting trends in information technology. The internet has proven to be more than an information market. We are more than consumers. Citizens require access to good information. Consumers pay to have information delivered. Access is more important than delivery. I'd love to talk more about this...

The agency issued a report addressing the controversial subject of network neutrality, which is the notion that all online traffic should be treated equally by Internet service providers. The issue pits consumer groups and content providers such as Google Inc. against large telecommunications companies, such as ATT Inc. and Comcast Corp. The latter group wants the option of charging customers more for transmitting certain content, including live video, faster or more reliably than other data. FTC Chairwoman Deborah Platt Majoras said that without evidence of market failure or demonstrated consumer harm, policy makers should be particularly hesitant to enact new regulation in this area. The Federal Communications Commission and Department of Justice have jurisdiction over high-speed Internet access, while Congress has considered legislation that would mandate network neutrality. The agency also said that certain practices that would discriminate among Internet traffic, such as prioritizing some data or providing exclusive deals to content providers, can benefit consumers. can benefit consumers.my a$$.

I'll go for that! Um, I think people should just pay for a service. More bandwidth costs more money, less bandwidth is cheaper. Trying to figure out how much to charge by content instead of usage is ... well, there's no polite way to say it ... pretty dumb. I produce the same bandwith load for ATT with 100MB of ABC podcasts as I would getting 100MB of Dragon*ConTV ... that doesn't mean I should pay more or less for the bandwidth used to get ABC's content, and I should get it at a similar speed. Anything else is the insertion of anti-corporate nonsense or political correctness into a simple business transaction between myself and a communications company. It's akin to saying business should pay more per gallon for water, poor communities should get higher water pressure, or water must go to the BrandA faucet first because they sponsor the water company. I just want bandwidth in a free market economy ... that's all. If the company I use to get it doesn't give me proper service, then I want the ability to get it somewhere else. Go tell the folks at AskANinja or SliceOfSciFi they need to pay more for bandwidth now that they generate some revenue.

Some people might think you are being a bit too silly for a painter, but others might like the fact that you are letting your guard down and not being a stuffy artist. I'm a photographer and have seen many different sites with galleries. I like how you present your work, though I would choose a background color other than white. I think your keepsake portraits are a great idea, and the video definitely gives people a more personal look at youwhich might entice them to open their drawers for you as well (inside joke for those who have seen the video). You might consider turning the camera toward a family member who is watching you and laughing (to just make light of the whole thing), or you can do outtakes showing you getting made up. I would also recommend showing the work that you describe (such as the portraits, giclee prints, on the road series) on the screen in a small window, or even filling the whole window for a few seconds when you mention them. I would even include one of your poems (possibly scrolling up the screen), especially if you plan to incorporate those into your work. I personally don't like the video in a box with the darkened area. It feels like my computer is being taken over. I would also use a flash player and have a way for people to comment and share the video through an embed URL link. It's all about gettin' viral. There are a number of free or inexpensive flash players, or you could use a network or video sharing site, but make sure you read the fine print. I think you have it just available in Quicktime, which will limit the number of non-Mac users who can view it without downloading a plug-in. I would also try to keep it under 3 minutes. I'm sure others here will have other suggestions on time. I'd also invite people to take a look at your site on other groups like this one. I moderate one for digital artists (mostly people who make inkjet prints and other prints for sale and/or exhibition). Just search for Digital-fineart on groups.yahoo.com. Hope that helps.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Hey PodTech - What's up with Lan's image?
I've been surprised by all the vitriol. I'd have thought that Podtech would have built up a couple brownie points with y'all by now, what with their paying you real money, and hosting awards shows for us all to circle-jerk at. Maybe the lesson here is to get paid First? Once you put something online, you don't own it anymore than you can claim to own a rainbow hovering above your house. It's in the public consciousness, part of the firehose of experiences that we all consume, transitory experiences. I think especially in this case since it's a digital photo of Casey McKinnon, if anyone has a claim to some money it would be her. If someone else made a recording of a song I was playing, and royalties were to be paid for that recording, I'd likely be the one to receive them. But I wouldn't demand them. Something just sits wrong with me when I hear about people billing other people for services that they weren't hired to provide. Creative Commons is pretty silly, not as silly as traditional copyright, but pretty silly. I'm heading out of town now so I won't be able to respond to any shit slung my way for a while :) P.S.

[videoblogging] New York Times Article on Changing Photography Rules for City
Hey all, Did everyone see today's New York Times article on how the Mayor wants to change photography rules for the city? http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/29/nyregion/29camera.html? _r=1oref=slogin First of all, this is probably one of those laws that will be struck down in court as a First Amendment violation. But apart from a possible rescue by the ACLU or other activists, I'm concerned about photographers in general if these rules are adopted. The new rules are so complex that police could find a way to arrest just about anyone with a camera if they wanted.

Re: [videoblogging] The FTC sucks...
Actually, you make a pretty decent preface there for the argument that *sales* sites should pay more for access because they make money, whereas the blogs, vlogs, and schlogs, hobby sites, free radio and video, etc etc should always have reliable, broadband, free access on solid peered networks. I'll go for that! Why? That's not really the problem, that people are making money. I'm cool with people making money. It's the restricting access based upon whatever metrics the communications companies decide to legislate that troubles me. Make a gazillion dollars, that's fine, but don't be using that money to legislate and price small content providers like us out of the game. Um, I think people should just pay for a service. More bandwidth costs more money, less bandwidth is cheaper. Trying to figure out how much to charge by content instead of usage is ... well, there's no polite way to say it ... pretty dumb. I produce the same bandwith load for ATT with 100MB of ABC podcasts as I would getting 100MB of Dragon*ConTV ... that doesn't mean I should pay more or less for the bandwidth used to get ABC's content, and I should get it at a similar speed. Anything else is the insertion of anti-corporate nonsense or political correctness into a simple business transaction between myself and a communications company. It's akin to saying business should pay more per gallon for water, poor communities should get higher water pressure, or water must go to the BrandA faucet first because they sponsor the water company. I just want bandwidth in a free market economy ... that's all. If the company I use to get it doesn't give me proper service, then I want the ability to get it somewhere else. Go tell the folks at AskANinja or SliceOfSciFi they need to pay more for bandwidth now that they generate some revenue. Let me know how that goes over :) I agree to a point. I would like transactions to be business based without the side order of agenda, but we also need to be conscious of the internet as more than just a free market construct. There are going to have to be rules. There will be regulation. The only question is: Which interests will be served by the make up of the rules? The Free Market did wonders for TV and Cable didn't it? Man the Free Market kicks ass in the Oil business. That Free Market's done great for Healthcare, and I rumor has it that it's going to be really good for our water supply. I mean, look what it's done for the food business. Costs are down, prices and profits are up, but how is it all performing? Move along... There's nothing to see here. I think we're getting screwed by all the legislating of profit. I think people are dying because we have been legislating for profit before people. I think people starve because we legislate profit before people. I think we cannot allow access to all of the information on the internet to be denied, damaged, degraded, or otherwise restricted based upon the profit driven needs of big giant corporations who will be bringing everything they have to the table to ensure that people like us can't play on the internet of tomorrow. I just hope there are more of us that are aware of that than there seem to be. If the Coporate Agenda is allowed to do with the internet what is good for profits, we're all screwed. Move along there's nothing to see here, and how will we know? We'll just have to trust the simple virtue of profit. There's more to the internet than commerce.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Hey PodTech - What's up with Lan's image?
Well... I'm glad people haven't resorted to name calling. Got to say, while I love podtech I'm a little disapointed at their response. The accussations about lan presenting a one sided story... is it his responsibility to present both sides? Is that even possible? And Scoble's negative conjecture about loosing money on the vloggies... is an unecissary and unwarranted resentful remark toward the whole community which reflects poorly on podtech. It is perhaps the thing that disturbs me most about this. Very disapointing. As for bringing up deaths in related people's families... very unforetunate remark. I don't know what other side to the story there is... The facts are this... Podtech used lan's photo... mistakes happen... noone here holds a grudge... but they've had more then enough time to resolve it and haven't. There's no need to drag the whole thing through the mud on either side... I just hope podtech and lan can resolve the issue so we can leave it quickly and quietly behind. I don't believe it's indicative of any larger issue... it's not like some printing company is selling prints of dozens of Lan's photos for hundreds of dollars each. It was an event to promote videobloggers. I'd hope because of that context Lan would accept an appology from Podtech but that's up to Lan. On a related note, perhaps this will provide some perspective. Some kids from Maryland got their yearbooks recently to find a slew of their facebook pictures in them. How's that for intellectual property theft? How would you have liked to recieve a yearbook only to find a bunch of your pictures from your blog in it? Makes a somewhat subtle duotone photo in the background of a banner seem like a relatively minor incident by comparison. Not to diminish the injustice to Lan, but there are worse things that could have happened. http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20070627/012707.shtml I hope the matter gets resolved quickly. The only shame here is that it hasn't been resolved already and was allowed to drag out.

Evil. Government surveillance increases by the minute, but visual journalists, artists, documentarians and citizens lose the right to document the world they live in unless they can a) afford it and b) formalize and plan everything (in order to apply to shoot at some specific time and place and purchase insurance) to the point that spontaneous life cannot be recorded researched, visually commented upon and on and on. The NYC laws on this are ALREADY horrible - this would be a nightmare. To say nothing of the carte blanch police would have regarding anyone documenting a protest, let alone an arrest during everyday life. So very very wrong and dangerous.

[videoblogging] Re: New York Times Article on Changing Photography Rules for City
Well reading the law it looks like you can be in one place for up to 15 minutes before they can actually bust you. It also says that you can't be within 100 feet of where you began filming. If I were in NYC I would do a documentary called 101 feet. Bring a tape measure, stay in one place for about 13 minutes then walk 101 feet to the next location and film another 13 minutes, do this until it becomes completely rediculous and you have yourself not only a short film, but also a protest to the law. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Brook Hinton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Evil.

That Free Market's done great for Healthcare, and I rumor has it that it's going to be really good for our water supply. Yes, regulation is required, but over-regulation hurts as much as none. A lot of those businesses suffer because of additional regulation. Oil - the government makes more on a gallon of gas than the oil company, along with dictating the formula shipped to different parts of the country. TV/Cable - government regulations are why cables are a monopoly in most markets. Healthcare - try buying an insurance policy with just what you need for coverage, instead of the policy with government mandated items that you will never use. I think people are dying because we have been legislating for profit before people. I think people starve because we legislate profit before people. And we do the same based on government policy. Most of this is based on bad tax policy ... something that does not need to get discussed on this mail list.

The FCC though it's regulations, the USA government (through Copyright law and Trademark law) as well as others, and taxes on the people and companies involved, make it so the TV Cable business is not a free market. The Oil business is not free because, at the very least, CO2 and environmental regulations. California even has laws that prevents you from buying certain kinds of oil. Taxes on the sale of oil products and the companies themselves also make not free. Health Care isn't free because of all the patents involved in that industry. The regulations against the doctors.

First, I really like your paintings-especially the color work. I didn't know why you were painted grey until I looked at your work after watching the video. The self-interview, in my opinion, is very entertaining, but also a little off-putting. Some people might think you are being a bit too silly for a painter, but others might like the fact that you are letting your guard down and not being a stuffy artist. I'm a photographer and have seen many different sites with galleries. I like how you present your work, though I would choose a background color other than white. I think your keepsake portraits are a great idea, and the video definitely gives people a more personal look at youwhich might entice them to open their drawers for you as well (inside joke for those who have seen the video). You might consider turning the camera toward a family member who is watching you and laughing (to just make light of the whole thing), or you can do outtakes showing you getting made up. I would also recommend showing the work that you describe (such as the portraits, giclee prints, on the road series) on the screen in a small window, or even filling the whole window for a few seconds when you mention them. I would even include one of your poems (possibly scrolling up the screen), especially if you plan to incorporate those into your work. I personally don't like the video in a box with the darkened area. It feels like my computer is being taken over. I would also use a flash player and have a way for people to comment and share the video through an embed URL link. It's all about gettin' viral. There are a number of free or inexpensive flash players, or you could use a network or video sharing site, but make sure you read the fine print. I think you have it just available in Quicktime, which will limit the number of non-Mac users who can view it without downloading a plug-in. I would also try to keep it under 3 minutes. I'm sure others here will have other suggestions on time. I'd also invite people to take a look at your site on other groups like this one. I moderate one for digital artists (mostly people who make inkjet prints and other prints for sale and/or exhibition). Just search for Digital-fineart on groups.yahoo.com. Hope
[videoblogging] Re: Hey PodTech - What's up with Lan's image?
I thought it was an advert for a competition involving Seagate, not just a banner promoting the event itself? Theres an interesting array of possible uses of copyrighted material without permission, that some people will argue should be allowed, and that make the inflexibility of copyright seem very silly and creative commons less silly, though still not perfect. Ive not seen adverts feature in this grey area before, they are pretty much the most commercial use of material that someone could make, I would have thought. Its not crime of the century and there are certainly companies doing things which are potentially much more harmful/unfair to creators than this incident, but its still enough to instill a sense of injustice in some people, and for people to want to see a resolution, and groan moan at podtechs responses so far. Im struggling even to find much to speculate about why there hasnt been an amicable solution already. Either the price is considered wrong, or podtech belive they have the rights to photographs taken at the event, or they thought they already had some other deal, or they dont think it is his photo? Whatever, I would think its far easier for this situation to be happily resolved than it will be to get a result with wider issues of creators getting a fair share of pie in the world of online video, a battle thats far more daunting.

Here's what happened. An employee made a mistake. We recognize that a mistake was made. It was easy to see how a mistake was made since usually people in the community who, when invited to an event we held usually give us photos that were snapped at our events for free and it's easy to miss the copyright on Flickr. Thomas Hawk, for instance, takes lots of photos at our events and gives them to us for free since he's appreciative for the community work we do. We asked around what a photo like the one that we used by Lan Bui was worth. I asked several professional photographers, the average fee was $300. Lan was not commissioned to take photos and an employee made a mistake by using a photo and not making sure we had the rights to use it before using it. But Lan wants $3,000. We have offered Lan something between those two prices which we feel is fair ($1,000 is the price I saw offered by PodTech CEO John Furrier, which is more than 3x what most professionals in the marketplace charge for this kind of work). Lan wants $3,000. He believes his work is worth that and believes that there isn't room for negotiation on this issue. So we're at an impass.

Re: [videoblogging] The FTC sucks...
Well quite a talk... probably not best to discuss this further, as it does get quite off topic. I knew I should have put supercommas around ''free markets', but I kind of take the fact that 'free markets' aren't free, for granted. You are right, of course, that these are regulated markets. But I do find it funny that the only qualms about the regulation come from the end of harming profit. In fact the 'regulations' you mentioned are specific checks put into place to protect people. What about the regulations that are put into place that protect profit. The 'biggest supplier' clauses, the subsidies to the Oil and Gas industries, or the 'help' in the form of lax regulation or 'voluntary' regulations that corporate sponsored government gives to business. Those seem to be OK, and those are often posed as solutions to the problem. Absolute necessities for living should not be based on markets. When it is a must for life, to put it into a unregulated market is nothing short of extortion, and if absolute necessities do find their way into markets, as they have, they should be heavily regulated to protect citizens. I'm saying that regulating the internet in the favor of communications companies and corporate profits is a bad idea. That's all. That's a major part of what's already wrong with our markets, and that's the thing that makes markets so dangerous to people.

Re: [videoblogging] The FTC sucks...
It will help the consumer, but hurt the citizen. There is a big difference between getting your shit that you bought delivered and getting access to stuff that is out there. Delivery vs Access... That's the frames we're working with guys. ATT wants to be able to 'deliver you the (their) world', and people like you and I just want access. I've been through this before on this list, and I still believe that it holds true. If the debate is framed in terms of 'delivery': products being bought, sold, packaged shipped, etc. If this is the frame for the debate, we are in trouble. Our stuff just gets in the way of people getting stuff that 'they actually paid for'. Quite literally, by definition, our kind of media impacts the 'consumer'. It's all going to make sense because it's true. Net Neutrality does impact the consumer. It makes them have to pay less. Consumers SPEND,SPEND,SPEND, not save, save, save. Net Neutrality is an absolute requirement if the internet is going to be more than an 'information market'. Without Net Neutrality, our information, 'all information' will become a commodity and it will be sold to the highest bidder, and guess what? Most real live breathing people will not be able to compete with the $10 Billion in quarterly profit of an Exxon. It's nothing for them to shell out $50K, heck even $500K to get good access, especially when that access is unchallenged. In fact, I would even argue that for them to do business it is imperative that they clamp down on all the cheap and rapid development of today's internet. It cost more to print the literature for an obsolete 2 year old running IT project than it would be to pay a $50,000 flat fee for privileged internet access. Get evolution to a manageable pace, restrict access and consolidate power. That's what the destruction of Net Neutrality offers them. I think that the big companies can't compete in a Net Neutral internet. There's just too much overhead. Layers and layers of bureaucracy, layers and layers of costs that must be born because of instantaneously shifting trends in information technology. The internet has proven to be more than an information market. We are more than consumers. Citizens require access to good information. Consumers pay to have information delivered. Access is more important than delivery. I'd love to talk more about this...

[videoblogging] Re: Hey PodTech - What's up with Lan's image?
Robert, thank you for finally coming out and saying something for PodTech to the community. First, I must say that your statement: He believes his work is worth that and believes that there isn't room for negotiation on this issue. Is a lie. One of the points in my blog post was that I wanted, at minimum, to be contacted to negotiate. In the last couple days I did negotiate down a lot less than $3000 and even sent an updated invoice for it. So how is this not negotiating on the issue? Remember we talked about this on the phone, so I'm not sure why you left that out. PodTech had the chance to ask to purchase a license to use the photograph before it was used, at which time they would be able to set the terms. That didn't happen. Now that they have used the photograph already, who should set the terms? I gave PodTech over a month to respond to my terms and they didn't. When it was just me that was involved PodTech didn't care. When others started to blog about it and it was giving them a bad name, then PodTech started to care. Remember, that blog post was up for about a month before others started take notice to it. So PodTech showed to me they don't care about me, they only care about their image in the public eye. Next, I am not Thomas Hawk. Wait... Thomas Hawk? I will be the professional and not discuss the prices that PodTech pays him. Remember Robert, you told me how much PodTech pays him and that reinforced my price even more! You also said: It was easy to see how a mistake was made since usually people in the community who, when invited to an event we held usually give us photos that were snapped at our events for free I was not contacted... so how could there be a mistake regarding permission? I also never gave (if you meant sent in to PodTech) any photographs that this one could be mistaken for. You also said: it's easy to miss the copyright on Flickr Come on, that argument is weak. Putting something in the same place on every page on flickr makes it very easy to not miss. You said: I asked several professional photographers, the average fee was $300. and 3x what most professionals in the marketplace charge for this kind of work Please don't lie again. The $300 price point is for stock photography. I even asked John where you guys got $300 from and he said that is standard for a stock photograph. If there is a photograph with Casey McKinnon holding Vloggies in a stock photography book somewhere I would love to see it. The photograph that was chosen was chosen because it had great value. It is not stock photography and I am not a stock photographer. Ok, lastly. Lets say I accepted $1000. Wow that sounds like a lot of money to many people that aren't making money from their creative work. Well this issue is not about me making money. It is about setting a precedent. If we allow companies to steal work and only pay a standard small fee when they are discovered, what is the incentive for them not steal again? Is that what other companies should learn from this? Just take now and deal with it later if it ever comes up. And don't worry, it still won't cost more than if we paid up front.
