Frankly I expected even worse by now, recalling that in the first few years after 9/11, there were stories about how seemingly innocent video of tourist attractions was actually fiendish terrorist planning videos. So the London police camera posters fill me with despair but the satirical treatment of them gives me some small hope. Even without a war on terror moron error, Im not someone who feels too comfortable waving a camera round in public, as I know some humans feel it is invasive. I dont know about the USA but in Britain the internet is commonly mentioned on TV news debate shows in a negative light, paedophiles terrorists, so I just roll my eyes when I see similar tactics in the newspapers too. Anyway you know I have speculated in the past as to what future our governments may be planning for, although its also possible that there are more basic motives at work. The police usually want as much power as they can get, more laws to be on their side, new weapons and evidence gathering devices. Some corporations make the technology that suits this paranoid surveillance game, so theres the basic profit motive potential to corrupt government there. As for this not arguing anymore, in order for that to work you possibly shouldnt mention most of the points argued about, or goading those that 'defend the corporate agenda' to respond. Where does my position fit into that narrow representation? Because you hopefully know that I believe government imposed restrictions that affect vlogging are already here in some countries, and remain a real possibility at any time in the future. Restriction of such things is one of the first things governments tend to do when they feel under threat, and even in tines of relative security, its the sort of right that ebbs away unless continually fought for. But this would happen in a counry without corporations too. And you know I scoff at the idea that corporations have an agenda to crush independent media. Mostly because they dont need to. Corporations strengths over small business, indies, individuals, is part of their design, business as usual assures their dominance, they dont need to take extra measures to crush. Now over the course of a generation the whole game could change because of the internet, but its by no means a cert, and its entirely possible they could dominate the net without taking any special measures or doing any deliberate crushing. I mean really, I am hardly a fan of corporations, I read lots of stuff about bad things they do, just as i know small business and government also cause bad, as do individuals. Due to their scale, governments and corporations can do the harm on a far larger scale, and we have greater expectations about what good they should be doing instead. And yeah, humans appear to be too hypocritical and corrupt to save the world. Some think that if we can only harness the sorts of thinking that can happen in war, but in the struggle against climate change and resource depletion in a time of peace, we might stand a chance. I fear that it will be harnessed through actual war. Can anybody imagine the global internet existing as we know it if there ws a non-nuclear war on the scale of world war 2 in future? And that would also be an end the the complexities of debates about free speech, rights to photograph, gossip, whistleblow be a real journalist or citizen? 'Theres a war on' will be the justification for everything, and the grumbling will have to be more low-key than we have become used to.

[videoblogging] background color won't change in WP theme editor
hi.
i've changed the background color of my blog a few times before but
now when i try to change it in the theme editor I can't seem to do it.
this is what i have
body { /* Basic defaults and the area outside the design */
font: 62.5% Helvetica, Sans-Serif; /* Resets 1em to 10px */
background: #f1f2f3 url('images/bodybackground.gif') repeat-x;
text-align: center;
}
that background # is correct. I have a bkg.gif on top that is meant
to fade into the background color but the site is showing the
darker grey that i had before.

[videoblogging] Re: Video Performance Rating System
I agree that there is a need for a human element, but it won't be long before someone figures out how to automate the majority of this. I know that I can track comments through my TubeMogul account. I don't know if those are downloadable or not. I'll have to go over and check it out. But, if it were, per video, you could easily do a word count. I can word counts on simple doc forms. So, there must be a way to out-smart the system. lol I wonder if some company like TubeMogul could add a list of referrers to what they are already giving us? I will be asking them tomorrow! I think those guys must cringe every time they see my phone number pop up!

I looked into having someone do this for me a couple of months ago and they wanted to charge me $750 per video to create overlays like you see on Overlay.tv. You can imagine who happy I was to find Overlay.tv! Cheers! Sheila --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Tim Street [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks Sheila, The guys are Overlay are great.

I know we're going to chat on Tuesday, but wanted to throw this out into our forum to check out. http://www.overlay.tv/ Our tech guys are working with this over the next few days to identify utility, quality, etc. But, this might be something that could work for you. You're able to insert URL's and product information during key points of the video.

I'm still not sure if Blip Pro will work with the ad networks that have approached me or not but I'm going to give it a try. Revver is a great service and they have been wonderful to me but when another advertising network comes to me with pre-rolls, mid- rolls, post-rolls or even jelly rolls I can't deliver those on my Revver videos if the other Ad Network doesn't them on Revver. To be fair to Revver, I'm sure they would be happy to take any ads I sell and do a rev split with me and I just might try that as well but the main idea here is for me to have the control. Right now if I want to do a pre-roll for T-shirts that French Maid TV is selling I have to edit those in. I want to be able to serve dynamic ads that I can change in the future. Then I want to figure out how to do dynamic integrated advertising - but that's a step 2 thing. I'll contact you off list to chat about opportunities with your company.

One question- Would you then open your shows up to other interested advertisers? As well as producing content, my company has an in-house ad agency and we book media. I'm about to give VideoEgg a try, but I'm always open to the new and untried. Because my company specializes in book video, we not only have tapped into a billion dollar industry, but we have a vast array of different genres that could benefit by advertising over a variety of platforms. I am, personally, finding that, little by little, our clients are starting to open up to the idea of experimental advertising. I could be very target specific if I could choose the exact content I'd like my ads to play over, before, after, against... Let me know how this works out for you! I wish you much success!

I'm speaking with several Ad Networks that want to deliver pre- rolls, post-rolls and overlays to my content and I need a FLASH player to deliver the ads as well as a solution for the RSS videos. I also need low cost hosting for these videos. I think Castfire has a great solution but until I know how much money I'm going to make with these ad networks I'm not sure I want to pay 38 cents per gig of transfer. The Castfire guys are doing some testing with some ad networks and may soon have a solution but until then I'm looking at all the options out there and Blip Pro looks like it may work. I see that Moblogic is using Blip Pro as there FLASH player and they
