Re: [videoblogging] iPod Nano shoots video
I may be a little out of the loop on small town newspapers but I'd suspect that they're now evolving to be complete well rounded little media companies doing video and audio and even social media and social networking, in addition to their traditional photo and written word. Anything to get their message across. I just stumbled on this superb quote from Marshal McLuhan. The old medium is always the content of the new medium. As movies tend to be the content of tv and as books tend to be the content of movies. It pretty much perfectly sums up the web. It started by gobling up tv, radio, movies, music etc., but since some of these media companies wholesale boycotted it a black market of goods spring up as well as leaving a tremendous opportunity for innovative media makers... i.e. the world of videoblogging and youtube among others. We've progressed in this latest media revolution on the web beyond the web page and deconstructed old media forms into more granular base elements. We've done the piping in the form of RSS and we've made media move fluidly around the web... a large part of this was the value of search, not aggregation, the true success of RSS. The question is always though... what else? Where else is this going. It's impossible and indeed foolish to think that in the fifteen or so years since the web went commercial and mainstream that it doesn't have some major evolution yet ahead of it. -Mike mmeiser.com/blog flickr.com/photos/mmeiser2 On Tue, Sep 29, 2009 at 12:03 PM, Michael Sullivan sullele...@gmail.comwrote: The other night I had guests over and we were talkiing about the struggles of the print industry and in particular the newspapers.

Being a big fan of Open Source, it's just an example that usability will always win. I'd like to second that sentiment. Usability is everything. I love that it's central to apple's brand / marketing / advertising. In other words people buy the iphone because they know from past experience that they'll be able to use it. Meanwhile the number of people who've bought other smartphones that don't use but one or two features on a regular basis is extremely high. (Particularly important because while in the top ten of features video is just not impost people's central three or four features.) To put it another way It's just to tedious to learn how to set the clock on the old vcr. We need features that are easy to use the first time... or even once a year if that's all we need to use them. We don't have time to relearn them when news is happening right under our noses. Problem is when most people write a hard to use feature out of their workflow on a smart phone it's usually permanent and they never go back to it. However, don't count open source out. It's primary accomplishments are it's ability to aggregate market share like crazy... i.e. Android is already becoming the primary tool in the fight of EVERYONE else vs. Apple. ... and in it's ability to extremely quickly integrate the innovations (read usability) of leading software... including innovations maybe NOT made by apple. This last is key because Apple is constantly shooting itself in the foot playing market share games. The latest I heard was apple has bought up a map company and thus will likely be cutting google out of it's core mapping features. But more common examples are the obvious denial of applications from the apple store that compete with Apple. Also the fact that it's completely incompatible with every other piece of hardware. Apple has gotten better but they still do have a habit of winning battles and then loosing the war. To reiterate, don't count open source out. Rome wasn't created in a day and it's still relatively young on mobile seen and will be picking up more and more developer, corporate and consumer marketshare as mobile computing becomes the primary computing platform by which the other 99% of the world experiences the technology and the web. And when I say other 99% you might be saying heh more then 1% of the world has computers, but I say 15 years from now kids in high school will laugh at the idea that we use to have computers that sat permanently on desks. It's not just the developing world I'm talking about it's the next generation too. There's tremendous opportunity for growth of the mobile computing market as a whole (darn near infinite) and thus tremendous hope for Android to quickly change the game. I'd bend over backward to use it, but right now it doesn't have easy to use video, photo, etc. Just not quite there and the iphone is already there. Counterpoint... Open source is there on the netbook front... whereas apple is flailing there. -Mike As far as the camera on the iPhone 3GS, it's not something right home about. The image is pretty poor. Little control. Bad mic. BUT BUT BUT it is extremely easy to take a video and post it online. So easy. Hopefully, Apple with all their developers and design sense will just set the expectation for how all phones should be, open source included.

Re: [videoblogging] iPod Nano shoots video
Nokia has been closed up until now. The N900 using an open source OS is a radical departure for them - they've been a traditional, hierarchical closed company. Thus many fewer apps. Also the apps are more functional, less fun for straight mobile phones. The moment you bring in a touch screen with a large screen surface area and good resolution, the more things you can do with it. And then add the financial and career incentive of creating a successful app for the world's most popular mobile computer. I think you're right, though - Nokia have had to raise their game massively because of the iPhone, and the N900 is definitely a desperate reaction to the iPhone and their subsequent drop in market share. Making it open and using a slightly different technology for the touch screen is a gamble, but I think it might pay off. I'm already scheming video apps for it.

Re: Pixelpipe: cellphone video distributed to Blip.tv? [ was Re: [videoblogging] iPod Nano shoots video
One thing to consider with pixelpipe (unlike the iPhone's sharing of video by email or to YouTube) is that it doesn't compress the video first and doesn't limit the length. So you can easily end up trying to push a 30, 40, 50MB+ video from your phone. It's still a great app. You just have to be mindful of what you're trying to upload. - Verdi On Tue, Sep 29, 2009 at 11:32 AM, Rupert Howe rup...@twittervlog.tv wrote: Pixelpipe works for me to distribute to Blip.

Re: Pixelpipe: cellphone video distributed to Blip.tv? [ was Re: [videoblogging] iPod Nano shoots video
I'm sorry if I've missed this elsewhere, but is there currently a way to upload iPhone video directly to my Blip.tv Pro account while setting all the parameters I need to set (like marking a video private and no ads)? Adam W. Warner From: Michael Verdi michaelve...@gmail.com To: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, September 29, 2009 2:01:49 PM Subject: Re: Pixelpipe: cellphone video distributed to Blip.tv? [ was Re: [videoblogging] iPod Nano shoots video One thing to consider with pixelpipe (unlike the iPhone's sharing of video by email or to YouTube) is that it doesn't compress the video first and doesn't limit the length. So you can easily end up trying to push a 30, 40, 50MB+ video from your phone. It's still a great app. You just have to be mindful of what you're trying to upload. - Verdi On Tue, Sep 29, 2009 at 11:32 AM, Rupert Howe rup...@twittervlog. tv wrote: Pixelpipe works for me to distribute to Blip.

Re: [videoblogging] iPod Nano shoots video
Rupert,
I have had the same reaction.
In general I'm happy that there's one more device out there to help
people join the ranks of shooting spontaneous video. Reliable sources
have disassembled the new Touch and shown that there's a spot for a
camera lens which supports the rumor (which Jobs has denied) that
Apple had to pull the camera off the Touch due to technical problems.
This sounds like the truth to me because who in their right bloody
mind would exclude their top tier product from the latest premium
feature?
Apple is definitely having some issues right now, the current iPhone
3.1 software release is VERY bad - truly as bad as any crap ware that
Microsoft has put out there.
On a brighter note, I'm really glad to see Nokia finally pulling their
finger out (the Nokia N900 with Maemo - http://maemo.nokia.com/n900/)
and won't it be grand when there's a photo/video centric Android phone?

either shot in darkness or of wide vistas with no colour or detail.
Was just ranting about this on Twitter. If you're going to bother
posting a sample video, at least shoot an exterior and interior close

The other good thing about the N900 is that the Maemo OS is open

tools to be built with it.

N900 is phone puter. And isn't tied to any contract or carrier.
Funny how Nokia have never taken hold in the US the way they have in
the rest of the world. Took them a long time to even release their
flagship smartphones for the North American market. Maybe these kind
of phones, and them potentially buying Palm, will start to change that.

Turns out it doesn't . Typical Apple WTF BS.
But... wait for it... the new IPOD NANO *does*. WTF? BS.
Anyway, the quality of the 640x480 H264 videos it shoots looks
quite
impressive. The colours are quite vibrant and there's a whole
bunch
of live video effects. Effects, I should add, that those stupid
bastards have deleted from iMovie. WTF? BS.
You can see samples here:

Would certainly be a very discreet little camcorder for
capturing
the
world around you.
But really, though, Apple: WTF?
BS

fun video!
http://maemo.nokia.com/videos/introducing-maemo-5/
this thing looks great. not being an apple fan boy at all... i'd love to
have one of these. looks like its about $700 which is comparable to an
iphone with no contract.
time to sell some things.

N900 is phone puter. And isn't tied to any contract or carrier.
Funny how Nokia have never taken hold in the US the way they have in
the rest of the world. Took them a long time to even release their
flagship smartphones for the North American market. Maybe these kind
of phones, and them potentially buying Palm, will start to change that.

I can't see myself using a mobile device that lacks a camera at this
point.
On the other hand, I need it for testing/researching/building mobile
apps.
Suppose a black market iPhone is a better choice (I'm a verizon
customer).
N900 is an exciting device... can it be used as a phone w/ data plan
or just
a pocket puter?

Ah. That kind of makes sense.
Not sure whether I mentioned it on this list or just on the
artists in
the cloud list, but I got to play with an N900 a couple of weeks
ago,
and the image quality looked fantastic... although so far the only
sample videos posted on Vimeo, YouTube, Flickr etc have been
crappy -
either shot in darkness or of wide vistas with no colour or detail.
Was just ranting about this on Twitter. If you're going to bother
posting a sample video, at least shoot an exterior and interior
close
up of a person and/or some detail with some speech. So frustrating.
The other good thing about the N900 is that the Maemo OS is open
source, Linux based. Which will allow some room for fun mobile
toys
tools to be built with it.

Rupert,
I have had the same reaction.
In general I'm happy that there's one more device out there to
help
people join the ranks of shooting spontaneous video. Reliable
sources
have disassembled the new Touch and shown that there's a spot
for a
camera lens which supports the rumor (which Jobs has denied) that
Apple had to pull the camera off the Touch due to technical
problems.
This sounds like the truth to me because who in their right bloody
mind would exclude their top tier product from the latest premium
feature?
Apple is definitely having some issues right now, the current
iPhone
3.1 software release is VERY bad - truly as bad as any crap ware
that
Microsoft has put out there.
On a brighter note, I'm really glad to see Nokia finally pulling
their
finger out (the Nokia N900 with Maemo - http://maemo.nokia.com/n900/
)
and won't it be grand when there's a photo/video centric Android
phone?

Re: [videoblogging] iPod Nano shoots video
$580 to preorder on Amazon.com What I'm looking forward to is the stuff that people will do to hack and extend it and make it interact with other devices. And also the camera, if it's as good as it seems. With an OSS editor on board, maybe.
