[videoblogging] new http://colombiamigrationproject.net site

2008-01-01 Thread Peter Van Dijck
The old wordpress install for the Colombia migration project got
hacked, so I made a new static html site for it, which should be much
better for archiving (as long as blip continues to serve the video
files at least).

Check it out:
http://colombiamigrationproject.net/

[videoblogging] blog vs youtube & myspace

2007-03-04 Thread Peter Van Dijck
I've always been interested in why young people prefer to post on
youtube & myspace versus on their own (video)blog (for the comments of
course!) - in this group we seem to think having your own vlog is much
superior.

But today I realized: my photos are on flickr, instead of having my
own instance of some opensource script like Gallery - for the
community aspect (and the superior functionality), so isn't that the
same?

Just a thought.

[videoblogging] mefeedia

2007-02-09 Thread Peter Van Dijck
I just wanted to share this:
http://mefeedia.com/blog/press/

A lot of people have wondered what would happen to Mefeedia, and who
is this new Frank guy? Well, he's putting the money and energy in
mefeedia that I couldn't, and taking it to new heights. The thumbnails
are working again, a lot of bugs being fixed, and as you can see from
the about page, the team is still much the same (Devlon and Mike, and
others coming on board).

So I want to wish Frank the best of luck and I'm very happy that I
found someone to take over the site and make it the place it can be...

Cheers!

Re: [videoblogging] Re: FireAnt.tv video thumbnails

2007-02-08 Thread Peter Van Dijck
I don't think there's anything really wrong with , to signify that this image is the thumbnail for a
video/audio enclosure of this post. RSS generating tools (Feedburner) could
use it to add the relevant thumbnail mediaRSS, and aggregators (mefeedia)
can use it to display the thumbnail the videoblogger wants to show (a common
request). I'd say just do it, start supporting it in mefeedia and let people
know they can use it.

Another option is to host your videos on Amazon S3. It can definitely handle

[videoblogging] mefeedia news

2007-01-18 Thread Peter Van Dijck
Hi all,
We've decided to turn over the reins of mefeedia.com to Frank Sinton.

Frank is planning to keep it running as the best place to find
videoblogs, focused on independent videoblogs, and he's putting more
resources into it. And of course he'll respect all user agreements
(ie. he won't spam your emails and such, he'll respect CC licenses,
...). I've talked to him and I believe he's got all the right motives.
He's on this list, you can ask him your questions :)

I made the decision because I just didn't have the time and money
(those servers cost $) to keep mefeedia going. It had grown way beyond
my expectations, it's been getting lots of pageviews and attention and
I just can't support that anymore. Frank is looking to invest more
time and $ in mefeedia so rather than let it die a slow death due to
lack of attention, so we thought that was a good thing.

Meanwhile, I have to thank Devlon Duthie and Mike Meiser for all their
incredible work to make mefeedia what it is today, and for all the
support we've gotten from y'all in the past 2 years!

Let me know if you have any questions!

Here's a word from Frank:

"Hello to everyone in the vlogosphere. First of all, thank you Peter
and Devlon (and the many others involved) for creating such a great
tool for videobloggers. Your hard work and support for Mefeedia shows.
As far as plans for Mefeedia, i was actually looking for your input on
seeing what you would like to see! Please use this group, email me
[EMAIL PROTECTED], or join our mefeedia users group:
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/mefeedia-users/ All comments,
suggestions, and questions are welcome."

Cheers,
Peter

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Blip adds Intros & Outros

2007-01-10 Thread Peter Van Dijck
Yes, users control with sensible defaults sounds right. How about something
like this:

By default, the original file gets the prepend and append, and the flash
file too, and those are the versions you make publicly available. Include an
option to prepend-append to existing videos I uploaded earlier.

The original file stays available too (at .../original/...), and make that
available to the content creator, but not to the public, *unless* the
content creator checks the "for appended videos, make unappended unchanched
version available to public" checkbox.

At any time, the content creator can switch prerolls/postrolls and re-do the
append operations for 1 video or all videos. This way I can change my intro
and attach it to all future videos, or to *all* videos.

That'd be my personal preference.

Peter

[videoblogging] why it's important to get angry

2007-01-04 Thread Peter Van Dijck
Some people have mentioned that the anger many of us feel is somehow
unjustified or dumb.

I do feel real *anger* when I see this? And I think many of us do.
Why? I've been thinking about that.

When I see a company "stealing" my video, putting their ads on it, not
respecting with attribution or linkbacks, I get angry. I don't think
it's because someone is profiting of my work. It's more like, they are
*breaking* this new world we are trying to build. They are going
against the reason why we are doing all of this, a possibility of a
future where we do own our media, at least part of it.

And since it's earlly days still, I think we HAVE to shout out about
this. We have to make a fuzz. We have to sue, if necessary. If not,
100s of other companies will do the same. We have to set the rules, or
they will set them, and that won't be good. And that's why it's good
to get angry. Because it makes us take the time to send that email,
although we know we won't get a response, to write that blogpost,
although it's just a blogpost, to digg that digglink, and so on.

"
There is absolutely no reason not to blog about this whenever it happens.
It's not about mobbing for sake of mobbing. This is a legit concern and it
should be on the radar of any reputable service in this space."

Sull is right. On the contrary, we SHOULD blog about this. First because
this company should feel the pain (I'm evil), but more importantly because
all the other companies can clearly see what's happening and learn the
lesson.

[videoblogging] mefeedia some changes

2006-12-26 Thread Peter Van Dijck
Hey all :)

We made some changes at the meef, mainly: you can now see who is
subscribed to a feed. Just go to the feed page and click "who is
subscribed". Some subscribers are listed multiple times, working on
that little bug :)

Also, for example this lists of PodTech feeds shows some new stuff to
our Lists feature:
http://mefeedia.com/lists/72/

Happy Xmas!

"I can think of -- off the top of my head -- at least five
projects that either failed or were significantly damaged because of
their choice of Drupal as their CMS"

I can think of 3 that I know of personally. So yes, "Drupal considered
dangerous for startups" is probably a fair warning. But it's not really
meant for startups. Or it shouldn't be. I also know of a few social sites
that use it successfully and have loads of users. But they've been around,
they are not startups really.

What they have to do is code a Drupal module that does mediaRSS. That should
not be too hard or too much work.

[videoblogging] Yahoo video uploads

And now there is, Yahoo video uploads.
http://video.yahoo.com/

It's a search engine, it's an aggregator, it's an upload site.

"- Featured, Popular, Category and Tag sections enable users to easily
browse for videos.
- Users can subscribe to and watch channels, groups of videos related
by source or topic, to stay current on content from their favorite
publishers.
- Users can access the largest database of videos on the Web through
Yahoo! Search"

What do we think? :)

Re: [videoblogging] Lets test the power of Digg

2006-05-26 Thread Peter Van Dijck



It's how many diggs you get, but also how FAST they get digged. If you
get 100 diggs over 2 days that's not as good as 50 digs in an hour. And
some secret sauce.

stories have at this particular time? Just curious.
Also, only 29 diggs?! What's the deal ya'll? There's 2100+ on this

I'm getting emails from people asking how to turn this (from

itpc://rss.mac.com/averagesoul/iWeb/AverageSoul/Podcast/rss.xml

into a real RSS feed. It's the default feed generated by mac accounts,
it seems, but it seems locked-in into iTunes? Is there an easy way to
turn those into an RSS feed?

It seems to me that:

1) Those numbers are great! No bad news there.2) If anyone wants to start a forum, great! The more the better. Maybe it'll take off..
3) It's all good news.

Perhaps I'm just an optimist.

 Most people come from searching Google, yet they still seem to beconfused about what vlogging is.Many of the visitors are from outside the US.  Many are visiting tofind videos.  Most are not vloggers.  That does provide a good

As for the forums and handbook, they may get pulled down since nobodyis using them.  Participating would plug yourself.  VlogMap operateson a $0 budget and makes $0.  My only goal is to better the community

Re: [videoblogging] Reltag support

2006-04-18 Thread Peter Van Dijck

Because a category is not the same as a tag.. Tags are used
descriptively, categories are often things like "Announcements",
things that aren't really tags. I am quite wary about using tags in
the wrong way... But there is no right answer, of course.

No, we don't support the  element yet. Two reasons:
1) I think it's philosophically the wrong approach, and
2) It's another day of coding and I don't have time right now, gotta
finish some consulting work :)

Not to say we won't, if I find some time I might implement that.

Where a lot of you using tags in your posts?

[videoblogging] Reltag support

2006-04-18 Thread Peter Van Dijck
Hi all,
>From today, Mefeedia supports the rel=tag standard.

This means that you can put tags in your blogpost, and your video will
be tagged automatically at Mefeedia. No more having to come to
Mefeedia just to tag all your videos.

To add tags, just add something like the following to your blogpost:

http://mefeedia.com/tags/videobloggingweek2006/";>videobloggingweek2006

As with the other sites that support this standard, the link can go to
any website, like Technorati, Wikipedia or Mefeedia, as long as the
last part of the link is the same as the tag.

We also used our Powers (tm) to run the script back in time, to the
beginning of 2006, so if you were already using tags in your
blogposts, all your videos have been tagged since January 2006. So all
your videoblogging2006 tags are in Mefeedia now, whether you tagged
them in Mefeedia or not:
http://mefeedia.com/tags/videobloggingweek2006/

Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers,
Peter

Veoh has put their actions where their words were, and they went all
the way. I was worried they wouldn't want to remove data that was
already in there, but they did, and rather fast too.

As far as I am concerned (personally), all is forgiven. Welcome back
Veoh! For me, you're back in the game.

Now could you explain what it is you *do*, I'm still confused...

Yes, I agree. I put in feeds in Mefeedia now and then myself, if I
happen accross one I find interesting and that's not in there yet. :)
That's not the problem here. It's the re-hosting and the lack of
attribution.

Robert, I don't think that's the issue. The issue is the "re-hosting",
not how many rss feeds they spider or who added them.

to me, Veoh is different from YouTube in this way:YouTube allows users to upload video. Users upload video that may or may not conform to copyright. YouTube either chooses not to monitor for copyright infringement or cannot do so.
Veoh is the same in this regard. The difference lies in the spidering. As well as a community site where users can upload content, Veoh also spiders other video hosting sites as well as individual vlog sites and inputs their content into their "community". Veoh is directly involved in the copyright infringement. That is the difference and that difference is huge.

Exactly.

Here's what I want to see Veoh do:

1) Stop spidering feeds today (and I mean today). Just turn it off for
a few weeks while this gets figured out.

2) Remove ALL videos you gathered by spidering. Only add videos back
in if the feed owner claims the feed and gives permission for that.
Transcoding and hosting should be opt-in. I think that's clear.

That's my stand on this right now.

I've requested 3 times that they remove my feed.  Once to Jarrod (a developer there) and twice to Dmitry after he emailed me personallyasking to talk on the phone sometime.  I don't want talk, I want action.

His words mean nothing without action.  The only action I've seen him take is to disable the big feeds, like blip, ourmedia, etc.  Does that tell us that us little people don't matter enough for him to act now?  Doesn't sound like 'friendly actions'

I agree with a lot of people saying that Veoh is a good site, they have a lot to offer...but, I really have a hard time swallowing the fact that out of everyone on the Veoh team, no one stood up and said...'hey wait, we can't do this, this is licence infringement'  Some of them are members of this community that 'get it'...they know.
Claiming ignorance now and not removing the offending feeds is just compounding and really frustrating me.I am surprised we haven't heard more from the founding members here aside from Peter.

jd, for one, they are a commercial entity.

Let's say I rip my Prince CD's (yes, I have some), transcode them into
crappy quality, then put them online at peterprice.com and put ads
around them? That's qualitatively and legally different from me
downloading a song and listening to it on my iPod.

You can see the difference there, no?

Let me put it this way. Imagine you are starting an online video
company (isn't everyone these days?).

Is it ok to take all YouTube's feeds, download all the videos in
there, transcode them and host them on your own site? No.

Is it ok to take all Google video's feeds, download all the videos in
there, transcode them and host them on your own site? No.


Is it ok to take individual videobloggers' feeds, download all the
videos in there, transcode them and host them on your own site? No.
Except if their license were to allow that quite explicitly.

You'd be crazy to do that.

Ahem.

Charles, you seem to misunderstand the situation here.

A feed with video enclosures implies this:
- yes, you can download those videos to watch them.
- yes, you can (like Bloglines) aggregate the text, linking back to
the original.
- no, you can NOT download the video, transcode it, and host it on
*your* commercial website.

I think that's fairly clearcut.

Number 2) is the most important one, and I believe if they provide
clear, big, many links back to the vloggers, 80% of them will be ok
with this.

Bullshit: they are clearly, blatantly violating licenses by
re-encoding and not linking back.

All they need to do is attribute, and it'll be mostly ok. Saying:
"contact us and we'll stop violating your license" isn't enough.

Yey for vlogdir :) Yeah, sites like VEOH really don't get it. And open
themselves up to being sued even more than YouTube. I think they're
just trying to padd their numbers to impress VC's: "look how many
videos we have!". But that's just my distrustful nature.

Re: [videoblogging] Veoh transcoding feeds?

2006-04-07 Thread Peter Van Dijck
I don't think it's ok what they do. Transcoding video, then hosting
it, without attribution is wrong. It's a BIG step beyond, say, Google
images listing your image, because they link back to you.

OK I told myself the first person who mentiones the date - that's when
I fess up.

April's fool. Mefeedia hasn't been acquired by anyone.

I laughed a lot though. Quite a few people sent me private
congratulatory emails, and were really surprised when I told them the
truth.

[videoblogging] big announcement

2006-04-01 Thread Peter Van Dijck
I have wanted to tell people this for a long time, but I wasn't
allowed to. So sorry to a bunch of you who should have known this,
sorry for having to keep you in the dark.

I received an offer I couldn't refuse from Yahoo to buy Mefeedia.

I'm sure you all will have lots of questions (sellout?), and I'll talk
more about this in time, but I just wanted to get this out there.  I
am very excited, particularly because my new boss is Lucas Gonze (from

Just let me assure everyone: in my discussions, I emphasized the
importance of a good directory that is focused on *videobloggers*, and
Lucas is totally with that.

[videoblogging] licensing data?

2006-03-30 Thread Peter Van Dijck
Hey all,
I am trying to find a good license to open up the data about
videoblogging in Mefeedia, so anyone can start a directory or do other
crazy shit like that. I think it's important - if videoblogs are easy
to find, they'll stand a much better chance, and data like this can
really help.

Anyway, what's a good license? I'll be opening, at first, the
directory data (feeds, videos, reviews, thumbnails, ...). I was
looking at CC, but I don't see a "data" license?

I always saw Mefeedia a bit like the IMDB - lotta useful data about
videobloggers (in our case), and I want to open that up... beyond just
an API, I want a good license too... to ensure the information stays
available and freely usable...

Any comments welcome!

Re: [videoblogging] Cleaning up audio help...

2006-03-29 Thread Peter Van Dijck
Cleaning up audio is very hard - expect very little. It's almost
impossible to drastically improve bad audio. That's why the emphasis
always on good sound with video.

Good luck anyways!

Was the streaming option stuff mentioned? You can encode your
Quicktime so it starts playing a few seconds after you load the page,
even if the movie hasn't entirely loaded yet. But these videos don't
play until they've loaded 100%, which makes it look like the page just
hangs or something.

Re: [videoblogging] GUBA

Aha - I see now.Guba used to do the Usenet thing, but they're gettting legal pressure and going legit.So they're hosting video. 200MB for now, 1G soon. They transcode for ipod and such. Haven't checked out the details yet. Worth checking out.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Introduction - New Vlogger

2006-03-18 Thread Peter Van Dijck
It's ok that you don't like people saying motherfucking jesus. It's
also ok for people to say whatever they want on this list, except for
hatespeech, attacks and overly commercial pitches, under which I think
motherfucking jesus doesn't really fall :)

Peace.

[videoblogging] Feedburner stats

2006-03-14 Thread Peter Van Dijck



Brief public stats health announcement:

Jessie from Feedburner told me they had a slight delay in their daily stats rollup this morning during
which some of the counters and stats pages showed zero.

So if your Mefeedia stats in Feedburner showed 0, that should be fixed now or soon-ish.

Cheers,
Peter

Re: [videoblogging] Google Video RSS Feeds

2006-03-13 Thread Peter Van Dijck



You gotta love standards. I added a search for "Bolivia" to Mefeedia, and it works:

http://mefeedia.com/feeds/6774

You can watch them in the browser like here:
http://mefeedia.com/watch/index.php?movieid=242621

But I get a "buffering" message without end.. the video never actually
plays...hopefully they'll figure that one out. Maybe it's just my
connection here..?
