Life gets in the way. Still make media, but almost exclusively with cellphone: video edited in camera, stills and audio podcasts. Each kind of media - with the touch of a button or two - makes it automatically to Twitter, my vlog and its RSS feed. Wham-bam. Thank you Ma'am.
Mastered editing, etc., and find I just want to make media seamlessly, without losing my stride. In the meantime, found this videoblogging community of media-making folks who ultimately totally replaced the 'celebrities' from other peoples' fictional stories as people I admired but from an untouchable distance. Even though I work in the industry. Screw that. Now, am entertained, taught, saddened, made joyful, and enlightened by those media-making folks - most of whom I've met, stayed with or stayed with me. Celebrities are part of my life rather than escape from it. Videoblogging has added enormous sums to my human wealth. Scoble said it best and I concur. This was / is a tech space that - as we'd hoped and dreamed from the beginning - would become obsolete when the tools caught up to the job at hand. The tools are not quite there (we need better cellphone cameras for one), but WILL get there. Soon. What a ride!
