Re: [videoblogging] Re: Frequency of Distribution
there is also something called stretch film which if it became viable could be relevant here. I only know of one person who actually made something like it (using LiveStage Pro). the idea (comes from stretch hypertext) is that you have, say, a 2 minute version of the work, but at any point you can 'stretch' it to make that sequence or content area longer by getting more material, and so on until you may (in theory) view all the footage for that sequence.

[videoblogging] Re: Frequency of Distribution
woah. Now *THAT* is an interesting concept. Your comp tape actually contains the rest of the video, being skipped over unless you select it. I like that a lot. :) I suppose, technically, you could do something similar with YouTube annotations, as far as linking each demo section to the video that it actually represents... ASSUMING you wanted to use YouTube at all, and assuming that there was an efficient way to skip back to the location you left from the original video. But yeah, that's a great idea! :D ~Bill http://billcammack.com --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Adrian Miles adrian.mi...@... wrote: there is also something called stretch film which if it became viable could be relevant here.

This sounds totally great.

Re: [videoblogging] Internet-Ready TV's from Major Brands Coming
And like Social Media, YouTube, videoblogging, twitter, and other trends, it will take 3 years to become mainstream. Year 1: Discovery by early-adopters Year 2: Corporate Discovery and creation of budget for projects in... Year 3: Where everything goes mainstream. I keep talking about this three year trend to people, saying that we have to move fast if we want to change the media. Look at how things changed for videoblogging alone between 2004 and 2007, or even from 2006 to now? This is not a dress rehearsal. We can't just sit and talk about changing the state of media, we must take action. The corporate momentum and infrastructure/warchest for communication has and will drown out our conversations, no matter how many positive benefits our ideas will bring to the world.

[videoblogging] Re: Internet-Ready TV's from Major Brands Coming
This largest hurdle I foresee is getting apps to run on the tvs, and how well each manufacturer adheres to any given standard. I believe most manufacturers have signed on to use tru2way, which is based in Java, which is now owned by Oracle. Does anyone foresee Ellison making some type of grab here? If so, will it kill the platform/adoption?

[videoblogging] Re: Internet-Ready TV's from Major Brands Coming
The history of technological phaes is covered well by Kurzweil in The Singularity is Near, IMO. The first phase is widely optomistic where people see possibilities and blue skies. Then those predictions fall short with skepticism and conservative view. In the second (and sometimes third phase) real success occurs. Recently this can be seen with the first dot.com boom and bust. Out of that huge, successful companies emerged in the second phase like Google, Amazon, etc. For internet media we are probably between the first and second phase. And I do (and have) predicted that Internet TV will realize the potential of quality, independent online media publishing. Story telling going back to performing in front of a group at a fire, the Greek theatres, to Cinema and TV, is at a distance, large. It is immersive and compelling. For story, people want to be drawn into it -- not disengage to interact and direct it, then immerse again back and forth. Otherwise it's game playing, not story. And Internet TV will remove the network/cable gatekeepers to Story in it's proper proscenium. -- Enric --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Jeffrey Taylor thejeffreytay...@... wrote: And like Social Media, YouTube, videoblogging, twitter, and other trends, it will take 3 years to become mainstream.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Internet-Ready TV's from Major Brands Coming
I've always assumed that none of them will really end up with proper browsers - just content portals full of pre-selected channels from commercial partners. This is how we will all get shut out. From the article: Philips is calling its internet service Net-TV. Devices in the 9000 series work with WLAN, while those in the 8000 series and the widescreen 21:9 models work with LAN connections. Unlike other manufacturers, Philips allows the internet information to take up the entire screen. The user gets started by navigating to the Net-TV home page. Philips has established partnerships with content providers willing to adapt their content for the TV screen. In Germany this includes major web sites like tagesschau.de, bild.de, kicker.de and YouTube as well as MyAlbum as a photo archive. It's also possible to enter in internet addresses directly, although Net-TV is unable to work with either Java or Flash. At Panasonic the internet mode is called Viera Cast and involves little program windows surrounding a reduced-sized TV image. These widgets show the weather, stock prices from Bloomberg TV, latest headlines and videos television stations as well as clips from YouTube. Viera Cast is slated to be integrated into the V 10, G 15 and Z 1 devices. Samsung has dubbed its programme inter...@tv. It provides only one program window next to the TV image. That can be YouTube clips, as well as headlines or weather reports delivered from Yahoo. The photos section is provided via the Flickr service.
