Hmm... Waiting for Letterman or Conan to invite Ian, Ryanne, Michael,
Jay, or Amanda onto their show to talk about videoblogs... if
videoblogs are television, then how long until television mines the
field for content?

By the way, I think that videoblogs can do much more than television.
I'm writing a letter to the times to point them at my favorites such
as mica and charlene, who are both focusing on posting 1-minute
ultra-short videos...

The link is http://www.nytimes.com/2005/07/25/arts/25vlog.html  - 
with pictures of Ian!

Ian, next time I'm in MK (probably mid-September), we'll have to get
together and blog each other, just so as not to give the lie to the
NYT.

Hahaha! Go, Ian! Go, Ian!

I laughed out loud at parts of the article, like

On Ian:

About The Carol and Steve Show:

Maybe NYT not taking Everything in terms of a main-stream sitcom would
help as well?

Gee! And what happens when bloggers meet? The blogosphere has about 13
million members now, and we still see the usual suspects mingling at
the endless row of conferences. What about golf tournaments? Same old
same old, and always Tiger. Tour de France: Darn, Lance Again! Ok, I
am pushing it. I just saying that the fact that Amanda and Richard
mention each other and meet up is not more strange than two a-list
tennis players meeting up at a competition. (Ugh, there goes the
a-list word again..)

***

What is so interesting to me is that Ian Mills goes from being "just
another teenager" in the UK (with no previous movie experience, right
Ian?) to being a NYT celebrity and compared to Letterman in what 7
months? Ok, this maybe isn't so strange at all, but my point is: If
you got talent, or keep at it until your talent shows through, the
work Will pay off. Or something like that.

Anyway. Congrats, Ian, and all. 

Best, 
Raymond M. Kristiansen
