Re: [videoblogging] My Wordpress 2.01 blog on Dreamhost has been Hacked!

2006-02-11 Thread T.Whid
I'm not that familiar with WP so I don't know where the password is
stored, this is just a tip off the top of my head...

Find out where the password is stored. If it's stored in the database
you'll need to login to the database (either via command line, SSH
perhaps, or phpMyAdmin I think DH provides this tool) and use a SQL
directive to change it (since it's probably stored in an encryped
way).

If it's stored in a flat file somewhere (i doubt it), then just FTP in
and change it there.

You probably need to check that the database configuration file for WP
still has the proper values as well. I'm not certain the name of the
file where this config is set, maybe wp-config.php ??

Good luck

[videoblogging] new media art commissions: any artist vloggers out there?

2006-02-08 Thread T.Whid
"Rhizome is pleased to announce that [...] between eight and eleven
new Internet art projects will be commissioned in 2006.

The fee for each commission will range from $900 – $3,000 (that's USD)."

(Rhizome.org is an organization that promotes new media art.)

More here:

http://rhizome.org/commissions/

It would be nice to see a vlogger score some of that cash.

In the past there have been residency requirements for these grants
(the Jerome foundation only funds artists living in NY and Minnesota
for example) but I don't see anything about it on the site this year.

Best,

Re: [videoblogging] Changing your iTunes URL

2006-02-07 Thread T.Whid



find the info on this page:http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/techspecs.htmlChanging Your Feed URL
		Podcasters occasionally need to
move their feed from one location to another. In this case, you should
not remove your feed. If possible, you should set your web server to
return a 301 error and redirect when receiving a request for the old
feed. Doing so will cause both the iTunes Music Store and the iTunes
clients that have subscribed to your podcast to pick up the new feed
URL. Be sure to maintain the redirect for at least two weeks to ensure
that most subscribers have attempted to download your most recent
episode and have thereby received the new URL.
		If you don't know how to return an HTTP 301, you can use the >
tag described in the iTunes RSS Tags section below. The tag will cause
the iTunes music store to be updated with the new feed URL, but it will
not inform iTunes clients of the new location. You may choose to
include an audio note in your podcast, informing your subscribers that
your podcast has changed locations. After adding the tag, be sure to
keep your feed running at the old URL for at least 48 hours.On 2/7/06, Brett Gaylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]
> wrote:


Whats a surefire way to switch your iTunes URL that will keep both your
old users subscribed, and update the music store?  If you put a
redirect in your .htaccess file, will that work?  I had an xml on
my server that I was manually updating, but then I realized this was
stupid and that I could do this automatically with blip.  So, I
want the people who've subscribed to the one on my server to get
redirected to blip, and I want the music store people to get moved
there, too.  I didn't really get the "return 302" thing that
iTunes talked about in their help page - where they heck do I type that
info in?

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Rocketboom Changes?

2006-02-07 Thread T.Whid
Andrew thinks the show is worth $50 - $150, that doesn't make it so
(or not so). There is a market for online video advertising and the
price is much lower than $50. Andrew  believes that RB-type of video
is a whole new market that hasn't had a price set for it yet (please
correct me if I'm wrong).

That's the purpose of an auction, it creates the price. The price is
what the market decides it wants to pay for it. Of course, Andrew
doesn't have to accept whatever this price turns out to be.

Re: [videoblogging] Has RB Started A Trend In WebVideo Advertising?

2006-02-02 Thread T.Whid



I agree with Michael, I don't see the logic in Josh's statement.I agree that there aren't that many vlogs or podcasts that could garner the amount of money we're seeing in the RB action ($15k right now, reserve not met). But RB can and will be able to do it again. 
Sure, the first company that buys the ad space will get some free press so perhaps the price will be inflated on this first auction. But if RB continues this means of ad sales a price will stabilize out of it and it might surprise us all how much that price is...

Re: [videoblogging] YouTube

2006-01-24 Thread T.Whid



I believe the TOU for YouTube are a suckers deal.Here's Flickr's relevent bit (actually part of the Yahoo! TOU) YouTube *is* the Flickr of video afterall:With respect to photos, graphics, audio or video you submit or make
available for inclusion on publicly accessible area of the Service
other than Yahoo! Groups, the license to use, distribute, reproduce,
modify, adapt, publicly perform and publicly display such Content on
the Service solely for the purpose for which such Content was submitted
or made available. This license exists only for as long as you elect to
continue to include such Content on the Service and will terminate at
the time you remove or Yahoo! removes such Content from the Service.+++I am not a lawyer but this is how I read it:YouTube claims a license to use your content anyway they deem fit forever and ever in any part of the world just by you submitting the content to the service. Whereas Yahoo (Flickr) will only "license to use, distribute, reproduce,
modify, adapt, publicly perform and publicly display such Content on
the Service solely for the purpose for which such Content was submitted
or made available." and this right is rescinded as soon as either of you decides to remove it form the service.YouTube could conceivably create a 'YouTube Greatest Hits" DVD ("prepare derivative works of".. "in any media format") and sell it worldwide ("any media channel") and the content creators would get bupkis ("royalty-free"). Of course you could make your own DVD and they wouldn't be able to stop you ("non-exclusive"). They are granting themselves every right you have to your work, with no way for you to revoke those right. They generously allow you to keep those rights, what a deal!
On 1/24/06, Michael Verdi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
So my basic issues with the service as it is right now are:1. The Terms of Use. Specifically, "For clarity, you shall retain all of your ownership rights in

royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, sublicenseable and transferable

connection with the YouTube Website and YouTube's (and its successor's)
business, including without limitation for promoting and redistributing
part or all of the YouTube Website (and derivative works thereof) in

When you create the page in iweb does it ask you what protocol you

Casual and new users publishing with iweb won't know what the dealio
is anyway, if this itpc thing is the default, most users of iweb will
simply publish their xml urls using that protocol.

This is surely f'd up IMHO.

Re: [videoblogging] blogger to wordpress

2006-01-18 Thread T.Whid
FWIW

I agree, you should keep the old account (esp if it's free) and add a
big notice at the top to go to the new home page of the blog.

You don't want to break all the links that are probably indexed in
search engines, linked from other sites, etc, etc.

By forwarding to the front of a new site, you force folks to search
for the content they were looking for when they get there. Give 'em
what they're looking for first, then let them decide if they want to
continue to explore your site.

Re: [videoblogging] blogger to wordpress

2006-01-18 Thread T.Whid
Hi,

You would need to set that up on blogger somewhere. If you wanted to
simply forward to your front page you could do it with JS in your
blogger template (are you allowed to edit the template?).

The best way to do it would be on the server-side. But I assume
blogger doesn't offer that service.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: The PAN!

2006-01-16 Thread T.Whid
I think it's interesting that someone is trying a slightly (and it is
slight) different format. It's more akin to Channel Frederator than a
video blog.

We'll see how it works. It's my opinion that lots of folks will
probably be interested in a short, edited clip show.

Re: [videoblogging] Questions on Formats to Post for Vlog.

2006-01-06 Thread T.Whid
One thing the M4V extension does do is that iTunes maps that file
extension to itself. So if you want the file to be double-clicked and
opened in QuickTime, you would prefer the mp4 extension.

My feeling is that Apple invented it specifically to be an iTunes
video file (as opposed to a QuickTime file).

The default behavior (on Firefox and Safari anyway) when opening the
file from a server in a browser, whether it be m4v or mp4 or mov, is
to play it in the QT plugin (as long as the mime type is set correctly
on the server). I think IE's default is to prompt one to download it.

Does that make any sense?

Why would they integrate video podcast (or vlogging or whatever)
creation?/viewing?/subscribing? into Garageband? I never use it, but
isn't it an audio creation application? The ability to import vid into
GB is probably just to extract the audio in one step.

"suggesting support for Video Podcasts" is very vague. What does
"support" mean? Play them? Make them? Subscribe to them? All of the

It would make much more sense to build video podcast creation into

Re: [videoblogging] iPod QT m4v format problems

2006-01-04 Thread T.Whid



You shouldn't rename it to .MOV.Add the MIME type for M4V to your server instead. This will fix the problem with browsers handling the file in the wrong way (downloading as plain text).I use the mime type video/mp4 for M4V files on my server (suggested by J. Kinberg on this list).
If you don't know how to set the mime type, do a search for "addtype" and  ".htaccess". Some hosted servers don't allow .htaccess files. You can also add mime types to IIS if you are running your own Windows server.

Hello Vloggers,Thanks for eveyones help yesterday.  I have installed the feed enclosure plugin and it seems to be working great and it improved the reliability of the feed.  I'm not sure I understand the difference between the 
atom.xml and the RSS index.xml output files for Moveable Type so if anyone can explain I would appreciate it.Anyway the feed seems to work better, but when downloads are done using iTunes through a podcast subscription ... the file looks like it is downloading and then when it completes it does not load the file as if it is the wrong format and leaves and exclaimation mark next to it instead.  Likewise when i click on the link in the block to access the same file I am taken to a page with the quicktime logo as it downloads and that logo eventually turns into a Question Mark indicating it does not know what to do with the file.  FireAnt on the other hand has no problem downloading the file and playing it ... I have another problem there however in that FireAnt attempts to play the QT file and our Flashfile in the RSS feed viewer below the video so that provides some confusion.
Now one thing that you should know is I have exported the files using QT pro to the M4V format but renamed the files with the MOV suffix.  I did this because previously when I had uploaded files with the M4V extension and tried to view them through the web with a browser I got back text encoding in the browser rather than the QT File.  I have had more luck with the MOV extension.
To check out our blog and feed go to ...http://www.choosecast.com/charlotte/lifeseens

Re: [videoblogging] Dream Host?? Is it a Dream? I'm thinking of hosting my site there. Rob

2006-01-02 Thread T.Whid
I use Dreamhost for a few different sites. I used to think they were
the superb, but one of my sites has been having downtime, problems
with PHP, mysql databases going down. It was only a few hours over a
few months... but it got to be annoying when it happened a couple of
months in a row.

It wasn't horrible and when I called customer support and complained
they immediately comped me a free month.

I've found their support to be pretty good. They respond fairly
quickly to emails and will give you call backs too.

All in all i recommend them.

TWO SCREENING PROGRAMS

Mobile Exposure 2006 (moving images made by mobile devices)

Mobile Exposure 2006 Video Ringtone Festival (on-line/on-mobile device)

Mobile phones, PDA's, i-pods, and other hand-held devices have already
gained widespread acceptance as tools to capture as well as experience
music and photographs. Now these devices are being further designed
and equipped with video capabilities - both for viewing as well as
capturing. What are the potentials of the handheld device as a
cinematic tool for expression, activism, experimentation, and
exhibition? With the recent announcement of the i-pod video device and
the Emmy Awards creation of a new mobile film category, the
advancement of this medium is now a foregone conclusion...the train
has left the station that is for sure, but on what track is it
heading?

How will viewing images on the small screen change our perception of
the moving image arts? How will the moving image arts change to
present works on a hand-held device? These are some of the questions
that Mobile Exposure 2006 hopes to address.

CONCEPT Mobile Exposure 2006 is looking for works that address mobile
culture and/or are made WITH or to be EXHIBITED ON mobile/handheld
devices. Our criteria are very broad; reflect on the mobile and
locative through the medium or the concept. We encourage hybrid works
as well (for example: imagery made with hand-helds and then post
produced, mixed with sound in a classic filmmaking procedure).

CALL FOR WORKS The Mobile Exposure 2006 handheld moving image program
is an exploration of the potentials of mobile video and culture.
Practitioners are invited to submit all genres of work, less than 15
minutes in length. Video Ringtones should be 2 minutes or less in
length.

WHAT WE WANT: We are looking for two types of works:

Made for viewing on a mobile device and
Made WITH a mobile device for viewing on the big screen (or little
screen too if possible).

We are looking for works made using cell phones, obsolete video
cameras, wrist cams, toy (NON-vhs/dv/hi-8) video cameras, PDA's, and
even small cameras that create mpg moving images. Please do not send
any material using conventional video cameras unless it specifically
relates to mobile culture. For films destined FOR the small screens of
hand-held devices, any method of filmmaking is acceptable.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES and CHECKLIST see our Submission FAQ
see the Submission Checklist

You must fill out the on-line form found here: Submission Form (for all calls).
FEES: US$5.00 payable by check, money or credit card/Paypal online.
Please send check with submission or PAY ONLINE.

Please send us your screeners on VHS, CD, mini-DV, or DVD, readable on
PC. PAL or NTSC accepted for screeners. DVDs region 1 or 0 only.

For exhibition we will require works on mini-DV (preferred) or
unauthored DVD (mpeg, avi, or mov files only). Mini-DV PAL or NTSC OK.
Unauthored data files must be in NTSC. We may also accept some video
ringtone submissions via upload. DVDs region 1 or 0 only.

Must be 15 minutes or less, including all titles...NO EXCEPTIONS.
Ringtones 2 minutes or less.

For works destined for the big screen please make sure that frame
rates and screen size are "viewable" (720 x 480 format preferred for
NTSC, analogous for PAL).

A brief synopsis of the work(s) of up to 150 words and a short
biography of the artists of up to 50 words maximum is also requested.
Still .jpeg or .gif (PC formatted) should be included on a CD along
with biographical materials and synopses.

Please include a stamped, self-addressed postcard that we will send
back to you as indication of reception of your film.

ALL SUBMITTED ITEMS (papers, DVDs, tapes, cards, etc) MUST HAVE THE
ARTIST NAME, NAME OF THE WORK, CONTACT, AND WHICH SECTION OF THE
FESTIVAL YOU ARE SUBMMITING TO WRITTEN CLEARLY.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Advice on m4v MIME types

2005-12-09 Thread T.Whid
How are you setting the mime-type?

I had the same issue and setting the .htaccess file fixed it (both in
browsers and so that wordpress recognized it and created the enclosure
tags). I first set it as video/quicktime and now just changed it to
video/mp4 per Josh's suggestion.

Are you certain that you are allowed to use an .htaccess file on your server?

Re: [videoblogging] DivX - Shameless Plug

2005-12-08 Thread T.Whid



Hi,Re: DVD playersThe link on the download page is broken, can you provide one? And, is this a list of compatible DVD players?On 12/8/05, 
Jim Vinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
















We have playback implementations in all of
these areas. DivX is an mpeg-4 implementation. One mis-understanding is that
because mpeg-4 is a standards based format that they all are about the same
quality. For example, tests show DivX performs better than baseline h.264. That
isn't to say that h.264 can't be better than DivX, but baseline
implementations (i.e. h.264 for ipod) won't be as good as DivX.

 

By standard, what I mean is that other
encoders can make video streams that can be decoded by divx and vice versa.
There are limitations. We are working on a simple app that can check any video
to see if our decoders can play the video. If it can then it means ALL divx
decoders can play the file, including the 50+ million certified DVD players out
there.

 

I'm not sure if that was the
question. Am I close?

My experience is that, tho I think the H264 looks better at smaller
sizes, it's slow as dirt to encode. At least with QT... haven't tried
any other encoders.

Re: [videoblogging] QT 7 Poster Frames / WAS Blogger templates SPECIFIALLY for bloggers

2005-11-30 Thread T.Whid
I've seen some very buggy behavior on the Windows version -- out of
sync audio/video, jittery, the plugin sometimes kills the browser.

On Mac I've seen some of this, but pretty rarely.

One would think that it would be unbuggy (since it's a core port of
OSX), but they threw together the new iTunes (with podcast, vid store
and video ipod integration) so quickly that maybe they skimped a bit
on the QA?

Hi,I hacked wp a bit to make two diff feeds for one post (if you provide links in one post for two diff media files so that wp's default behavior is to create 2 enclosures). It's pretty simple.. you just provide a format via a query string and filter the enclosure routine to only write the enclosure to the feed that matches the format you want.

I don't agree. they understand it as 'subscribing' to 'something' to
get audio. When you add video it's instantly recognizable as
'subscribing' to 'something' to get not audio, now video.

I'm not telling you to change anything I would encourage you to call
it whatever you like.

But I'm interested in explaining this stuff to people who may not know
anything about it and the shortest possible route presently is 'video
podcast.' Apple, Curry and others are pouring lots of time and dollars
in making the podcast term understood by ordinary consumers. And
presently the way they're defining it is broad enough that it doesn't
conflict with the message I want to get out. Why shouldn't I take
advantage of the education they're doing?

It may come back to bite me in the ass, but for now it seems worth it.

Re: [videoblogging] for the new people on this group

2005-11-23 Thread T.Whid
Hi Josh,

It's more than simple 'buzz factor.' Most people don't know what or
how to connect to media via xml feeds. 'Podcast' is making headway as
the generic term to describe this via Apple's (and others') marketing
and promotion. To simply add 'video' to podcast becomes a very simple
way to extend what people already know.

Vlog isn't good as it is meaningless to anyone that doesn't know the
'v' stands for video.

Videoblog is better and more precise if you are talking about a
website in blog format that also has video and feeds associated with
it.

Video podcast is more precise when talking specifically about the feed
and any web site associated with it is simply that, associated with
it, but not crucial to it.

The dangerous part is if one uses the term 'podcast' people might
become confused and think that it only works with an ipod or is meant
to be used in association with an ipod. I've seen a few launches of
video feeds recently where the only instructions they give on how to
use it is to use iTunes. This is a problem (I'm sure you'll agree).

[videoblogging] Re: why does an .mp4 ask to open up QuickTime

2005-11-10 Thread t.whid
what is the browser/OS you're using?

I'm not sure regarding mp4, but I wanted m4v files to be handled by quicktime 
and had to 
add the mime type to my server, otherwise the server would send it with a 
default mime 
type and you would see the binary data rendered in the browser as text. After I 
added the 
mime type as video/quicktime the browser handles it as a quicktime (using 
whatever the 
browser is set up to do with that sort of file). So on my Mac they just render 
in the browser 
using the qt plugin (except for stupid IE).

This might be what you're seeing?

Actually, I just checked your URL and what happens for me in Safari is I see 
the binary data 
rendered in the browser. A small example:

" 
!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>[EMAIL
 PROTECTED]
\`XUOYa\[hyWmdR]Ye\\ikit°mJk]s__lco_z?wllakSPo?w`zhr?z|xvjÆ?gpqows|
²mqfxl?iiddqkhn?ßÄ_txj?s{hy"

So yeah, maybe you want to add the mime type as video/mpeg or something? You 
can do 
it in an .htaccess file if you're using Apache: 
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/
mod_mime.html#addtype

[videoblogging] Re: YouTube - WTF?

2005-11-08 Thread t.whid
Part of the reason they do well is that their interface and features are very 
good IMHO. I'm 
not that familiar, but based on a quick perusal, they are doing lots of stuff 
right (social 
connections, RSS feed (with enclosures), tags, aggregating, ease-of-use, 
xml-rpc 
interface). They are doing lots of stuff wrong too of course (evil EULA, nasty 
logo bug, 
wonky flash format). I've not tried to upload a video so I can't comment on how 
the quality 
of that part of the service.

I'm sure the VCs simply looked at the numbers, if the numbers are there they 
figure the 
money will follow.

I agree with Verdi in that anyone with a smidgeon of sense wouldn't accept 
their EULA. 
Obviousely no one with any professional inclinations at all will use the 
service for this 
reason, but if it's easy-to-use and free they'll get lots of folks sharing 
video.

Yo,

After i upgraded and restarted (grumble, grumble) QT auto-launched and I saw 
this link in 
their little spam splash that said something like "create podcasts with QT 7 
pro."

Intrigued, I followed the link.

Here 'tis:

Was this up before? Strange that they also don't have a 'video podcasting' tute 
to go with.

cheers,

btw, I like the new iTunes interface.. but their GUI design changes so rapidly 
now.. kinda 
weird and ADD-ish.

tears of shame and rage.

What we're dealing with is criminal negligence and dereliction of duty. 1000s

because of the Bush Admin's incompetence. Not that the local officials don't 
deserve some 
blame (there's plenty to go around) but anyone who tries to tell you that the

Wasn't this discussion started because of someone posting links to
streaming media re: 
the disaster in NO and environs? I'll assume it was. Couldn't one
construe the sharing of 
this link as information to help a citizen journalist blog? If
someone asked how to 
transcode streaming video to a format for downloading that would be
OK? But supplying 
links to relevant material isn't? Seems an arbitrary distinction to
me.

If I'm wrong regarding the streaming link feel free to ignore with
extreme prejudice. If it 
was someone posting links to charities or news stories -- then yeah,
stop that :-)

[videoblogging] Re: Questions Regarding Sponsorships, Underwriting, Ads, and Rates, etc.

2005-08-13 Thread t.whid




My 2¢ regarding videoblog :

If you really want to make money you might want to try streaming instead of download. 

There is a market for video advertisements*, but you need to provide numbers or the 
advertisers won't pay. At least that's how it works presently.

Advertisers want to know each time their ad is watched, presently with downloadable 
content like podcasts or videocasts, they can only count the initial hit to the server when 
it's downloaded. If it's watched repeatedly thereafter (forwarded, shared, put on another 
server, etc) then you won't get the maximum amount of dough that you could from the 
content. 

Perhaps at some point someone will do a study (or 10) of downloaded media and the 
advertisers will be talked into using a statistical approach or something (so one would 
count hits and then add a realistic statistical amount to due to forwarding and etc), but 
this isn't really my field and probably talking out of my ass completely at this point :-)

Does anyone know if windows DRM server counts each time a media file is played? Or does 
one just get the key once and that's it? I doubt it counts coz then how would one be able 
to play it on a portable player that isn't connected to the 'net?

(*a recent nyt article described the market somewhat, it's now behind a paywall, it was 
from the august 1, 2005 late edition in the business section )

I agree with Michael Verdi, FWIW.

You don't know how much value this stuff may gain in the future, it could be considerable. 
IMHO, it would be extremely unwise to give away every right you have to your videos at 
this point in the game.

And, by they way, if you agree to those terms you *ARE* giving up every right you have to 
the video as long as those rights are granted by YouTube (CC be damned):

"including the unfettered right to sublicense such rights, in perpetuity throughout
the universe."

YouTube is banking on you thinking like an amateur, no one with any professional urges 
whatsoever or even the faintest glimmer of hope of a professional career either as a video 
personality, producer or editor should agree to these terms. 

I'm not a lawyer, my 2¢.

2005-08-08 Thread t.whid




Hi all,

The company I work for is developing a TV over IP application called TVTonic (http://
www.tvtonic.com). Presently it's windows-based and focused on the 10ft experience. I'm in 
charge of the visual design and do a lot of _javascript_, CSS, and HTML.

I'm also an artist and have been active in the net art/web art/new media art field since 
1997. You can see all the art stuff here: http://mteww.com; blog here: http://
www.mteww.com/mtaaRR

My art collaborator and I just finished a new piece called "Karaoke Deathmatch 100" which 
was conceived as a video installation but we plan on making a web-based version that 
takes the form of a videoblog, should launch sometime in Oct and will run for 10 weeks...

Other art works that may be of interest to videobloggers: 1 Year Performance Video (http:/
/turbulence.org/Works/1year/) and Five Small Videos About Interruption and Disappearing

[videoblogging] Re: Playlist: How to create a vodcast

2005-07-27 Thread t.whid




it seems the tute was geared specifically toward iTunes 4.9:

"By preparing your movies properly and creating the right feed, you can offer your 
audience video on demand through an application familiar to us all: iTunes 4.9, a version 
of iTunes that supports playback of local and streamed video."

So recommending h264 is OK, not idiotic.

[videoblogging] Re: ny times article on vlogging

2005-07-25 Thread t.whid




related, there is also an article about current.tv in todays NYTimes:

http://www.nytimes.com/2005/07/25/business/media/25gore.html

I'm curious to check it out. Luckily it's playing in my area, doesn't seem to be very 
widespread thus far.

Has anyone submitted content?

[videoblogging] Re: iTunes storage of XML?

Yeah, I see your point. Perhaps I'm just used to using NNW which allows one to examine 
the XML. Then, if there is an issue, the clever monkey could perhaps examine it and see 
what the issue is.

Sure, you can always hit the url with another app (browser), but it's nice to have that 
feature built-in. Sometimes I like to see exactly what my app is parsing into it's DB, plist, 
etc. 

I'll need to poke around some more, I'm curious as to how iTunes marks-up the as-yet-
downloaded files in the library.

Take care,

Perhaps. H. If I was writing an RSS reader I would think that I would keep the 
original xml around somewhere until a refresh happened... Apple thinking differently?

congrats :-)

I know how it feels. When we launched our bandwidth-hog art work
called 1 Year 
Performance Video, the org that commissioned it was about to pull the
plug, but then a nice 
university (UMaine) stepped in and hosted the video for free. It's a
nice feeling :-)

btw, I've been enjoying RB via iTunes for the last few weeks (days?).
For all it's problems, I 
still feel iTunes is the best audio and video aggregator out there.
