Ditto. I do my vlog foremost for myself and family, but do like the
idea of having others come along for the ride.
I'm not really worried about the shows. Television should worry more
about internet shows then I am. My followers will probably be more
dedicated then the masses following the day's
Yes, you do things for yourself, but isn't a part of our nature to
connent with others? Isn't that why we seek out those you share our

Hi Heath,
I am actually (and inadvertently) doing a combination of personal and
show vlog. We have one year event Saturday, and (presumably) will have
created 365 episodes, one every single day.

personal to me and reflect a lot about me: my humor, aesthetics, and
social and political leanings. One author can write a diary that
communicates less about him
Agreeing with the others, the first thing I think of when videoblog is

up, which is great, but always think of them as add-on to the original
concept... sharing personal stories. I remember a lot of the original
discussion back
