I think that works in areas where you have a large vlogging community...but I don't see a lot of "hey I was just surfing around and found your site" happening much anymore in personal vlogging...there is just so much stuff out there...I mean just trying to find something new is daunting....I mean just think about it, just 4 years ago, you could watch every vlog out there, probably in just a couple of hours time...if that long....Now?!?....I have trouble keeping up with the 20 or so I watch reguarly...(speaking of which, I need to add you to my zune, yes...I said zune) But I hope you are right, I hope it will always be on some level....PERSONAL..... ;)
