That is totally wrong. I do feel like I have to consistently defend the genre of videoblogs who's "theme" is the person who authors it because they're always be written about in terms of "boring", "rambling", "[not] consistently entertaining", etc. Though, I have never said that those types of videoblogs are better than any other type. I'm the person who has been saying over and over again "let's not define it". It's too early. People need to experiment and play with things. Now, we have built up a definition collectively by creating work (which is mostly personal) but I don't think that is the end of it. This is all just getting started. Wait until there are not just 2,000 videoblogs but 20,000 or 200,000 and there are not just 100,000's of viewers but millions and tens of millions. Maybe then we'll have collectively defined something. My guess is that by then there will be a lot more diversity than we see now.
