Re: [videoblogging] Re: For next year: promote unknown vloggers
Now, they're going to say vloggers like KityKity do nothing but copy other vloggers like 'Drinking With Bob". I think everyone should do a "Drinking with" vlog. We'll have a contest to see if anyone can out-bob Bob. For sure, we'll all have a good time and a few hangovers to spare. I'll drink to that!

Re: [videoblogging] Re: For next year: promote unknown vloggers
To try to demand mention from the press would be utter suicide. You would be better advised to lodge a more indirect personal complaint along the lines of: "You know I've talked to six reporters and none of them thought anything I said was worth quoting." That would be a guilt-throwing sympathy play that would work much better. The best thing is just to be as helpful and as informed as possible and hope they will appreciate the input and mention you. I've worked for hours and gotten only a line or two. Other times, I've talked just a little and gotten full page coverage.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: For next year: promote unknown vloggers
I've had a lot of interaction with the press in my day. You have to package yourself in a certain way. Any writer could use Susan as a soccer mom who vlogs when writing an article with that sort of slant. Right now, the focus is on the impact of this new media on old media. Susan, you should take the initiative and send some queries to magazines (or the local papers) suggesting they do an article on vlogging.

Next time someone wants to interview you, you can say to them "Look, I've been interviewed 6 times in the last month, but I haven't been cited in any of the resulting stories. I'm happy to talk with you, but you need to at least give me mention." And if they don't want to, they can find someone else to talk to. You have as much power as they do. You don't have to play hardball like that, but it's an option, and there's nothing wrong with doing so. Worst case scenario they don't want to talk w/you. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, "taoofdavid65" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, "Susan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > That sounds like a wonderful plan.
