[videoblogging] No slowing down for me.
I don't know if I'll get a lot of responses to this post, though that would be nice; but I'm just overflowing with stuff that I'd love to share with you all. Jonny--I can't tell you how tickled I was a month ago when Markus sent me a link to that mp3 of audio of when you gave the presentation in New York City. Here's an art project for kids I did, you said--and here's a lady in Texas who saw my vlog and did the project. That was completely awesome. Something similar happened to me this morning. Yesterday's vlog post (and yes, I am still posting a new vid daily) was a little bit about me being frustrated, and excited at the same time, and wanting to teach more parents about videoblogging. Of all people, my mother-in-law (the one who was in that vid I did plugging FireANT) saw the video, and is going to talk to a woman she knows about me teaching videoblogging on the weekends I go down to San Antonio and visit node101, hopefully once a month. So another gap has been bridged thanks to these vids. I gave my first presentation at the Apple store here in Plano, TX last Saturday, and I haven't talked to many of you here about it. Before I ever gave the presentation, the lead instructor at the store told me that he wanted me to present once a month, and to pick dates for the next couple months. The presentation itself went 98% smoothly. Besides the fact that I don't own a mac and got mac-lost a few times, that was 1%, and the fellow who said he would come to tape the presentation (sin tape, of course) for me, he didn't show up, so that was another 1% down. But the presentation itself went awesome, and I had a captive audience, and I think I may have even made one mom almost cry with one of my videos (no, I haven't posted that one on my vlog yet--it will probably be Christmas Eve or Christmas Day post). The Apple guys were very very nice to me, and they were thrilled with my presentation, and seem very eager for me to come back in January. I really wanted to have the presentation taped--that would have been my next half-dozen-or-so vlog posts, excerpts from that--but maybe next month. In the meantime, I have taken so many vids, and since I only allow myself to post one a day, I have been backlogged as long as a week or more, and am now just about catching up to the point where I only have a surplus of one or two day's worth of vids to post. Time to make more. I guess what I'm saying is... I remember a post a month or so ago where we were talking about vlogger burnout... usually in Suzy's little world, I would have gotten burned out on something new within the first few weeks... but I'm going on four MONTHS now with no end in sight, and I am actually coming up on making my 100th video blog post... Any suggestions for a 100th post? Thanks for your wonderful friendship, help, and support through my wonderful vlogging experiences! Susan http://vlog.kitykity.com Yahoo!

Re: [videoblogging] No slowing down for me.
great post Susan and thanks for doing that the story about yours and Jonny's video interaction is now a standard part of my presentation of Vloggers around the world on VlogMap. i love telling that story i think it is important that we begin to document more of the presentations - it *is* harder when you are the only one presenting there is so much going on that it is often hard to focus on the right things - overflow is the right word - not sure what to say about that it's amazing what can happen sometimes when you express your frustration in a video 8 months for me and no burnout yet :) as for the 100th post - how about something special for Ian as he nears his 365th? how about we all do a special post for Ian before the New Year and the end of the 05Project? markus Susan wrote: I don't know if I'll get a lot of responses to this post, though that would be nice; but I'm just overflowing with stuff that I'd love to share with you all.
