What's really nice is that the new viewers driven by CNN, Walt and the
BBC are sticking around.

That's so cool, Mike, congrats! It makes so much sense for advertisers
to get involved with and support those shows; they can reach audiences
on a much more personal level, as many people on this list have shown.

If Walt likes watching videoblogs, and found it easy to find some
favorites on Blip.tv, the big audiences can't be far behind.

I don't know - I just felt it, like a tremor in the Force... :-)

Must have been a combination of your voice and the Press badge which  
I guessed maybe said Faux Press (as it does), when I went to your  
site to check.  Plus, of course, your incredible flexibility.  That  
was a dead giveaway.

So I checked your site to see.  Also I remember you saying a while  
back that you were in SL.  I've been meaning to check it out for a  
long time.  I just can't quite bring myself yet to get into anything  
else that I might get sucked into obsessively.  I already have enough  
projects on the go, and I have memories of the entire summer after I  
left university being lost to Sim City...

I will tell you that the Mossberg article led to a ton of e-mails from
media buyers, unsolicited phone calls from recruiters and some of the
biggest traffic days that blip.tv has ever seen.  Our ad sales pipeline
doubled.

We're super proud of the article.  Walt highlighted some of his favorite
shows and some of ours (GNB, AIB, Josh...), validated videoblogging and
called blip.tv his "favorite."  Wh!  We spent months talking to Walt
and working on this story.  We couldn't be happier!

By the way, if you get a chance, definitely watch Walt's video that
accompanied his column.  You can find it at the bottom of
http://ptech.wsj.com/ptech.html until Thursday morning.

I'm interested, how much email did the people in the article actually

How many web pages views compared to a normal day...?

Wow, had no one linked this yet?

It was none other than Walt Mossberg -- him writing about
videoblogging is a Big Deal.  Capitalized.  Congrats to everyone he
mentioned, whom I imagine have all gotten a bunch of email.  Lots of
people read Mossberg.
