Hey Jay, Adrian and Susan, I like the interval approach for otherwise lengthy videos. Chunking is a good idea; like a moving thumbnail. In a way, "mydayyesterday" flickr group bootstraps flickr into something like 12second.tv. In addition, I know users can drop photos as comments, but can they drop flickr video as comments too? If so, then we might have a short but entirely usable seesmic clone too ;)
Not entirely related, but this might change the way I record first person video as a personal memory prosthetic. I'm trying to see if I can use my wearable video camera outfit to capture my daily life, so I will never forget. Steve Mann's glogging community are doing the same thing with cameraphones [1], as they approach this from an equiveillance perspective [2] I've recently shared a 17min demo of how / why I do record my life as completely as possible [3], and as you can guess, cataloguing and searching through lengthy videos is still something I'm researching. Right now I've tried tagging keyframes using services like Viddler, but I might resort to using a thumbnail generator with hourly intervals so I can quickly browse through them (as inspired in this email thread). Sorry I'm I'm going off tangent; just thinking out loud. :) [1] http://glogger.mobi [2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equiveillance [3] http://theory.isthereason.com/?p=2375 Kevin Lim http://theory.isthereason.com This email is: [ ] bloggable [X] ask first [ ] private email locator: ╔╗╔═╦╗ ║╚╣║║╚╗ ╚═╩═╩═╝ On Sun, Jan 4, 2009 at 9:04 PM, Susan <kityk...@gmail.com> wrote: > Remember these, Jay? > http://vlog.kitykity.com/?cat=14 > Hope life is treating you all well :) > Susan > > --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, "Jay dedman" <jay.ded...@...> wrote: >> >> Steve Garfield pointed out this new Flickr group: >> http://flickr.com/groups/mydayyesterday/ >> >> "Shoot video throughout a day in your life, then put it together and > upload >> it the next day.
