I think the problem is that net video is a larger container than a blog. A flash video container can contain all the capabilities of a blog and more indicated by the blip.tv Show Player and others.
What Steve Garfield states makes sense as capabilities required by net video, but not the specific implementation in blog cms systems like Wordpress, TypePad, Blogger, etc. In other words, a videoblog is "in reverse chronological order and often combine embedded video or a video link with supporting text, images, and other metadata." This should not be restricted to traditional blogging applications and include other implementations of the qualities in YouTube and other systems. -- Enric -======- http://cirne.com --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, "David King" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'd sorta kinda agree, Steve.
