JangroCast #1: Video Blogging is Hard!
16 April 2008 – 3:37 pmVideoblogging is hard! (spoken in the Barbie “math is hard” voice).
The production part isn’t hard. Actually, it’s much easier than I thought it would be. It is just tough having something concise to say and being animated when saying it. Radio is much slower paced, and I think people don’t mind that because it can just run in the background. At least I hope so.
Anyway, so I thought I’d give audio a try as well.
I apologize for the clicking sound. I’ll figure out what that is. And I’ll work on the um’s!
In this 20 minutes, I talk about the people that inspire me to get out of my comfort zone and try these things, both the usual suspects as well as a 10 year old, some business stuff (servers), and Twitter (of course) .

Goooood stuff. I love the story about your daughter & getting into stuff that you're not necessarily comfortable with (like video & podcasting).
Re: Twitter culture I don't find myself being shorter winded with emails or anything but I am using twitter a lot. I hope we don't revert to L33tsp33k! I hope I'll never use 'ur' in an email!
Thx trish. u r kewl. srsly.
I agree, its hard especially when you are starting out not to focus too much on the fact that theres a camera on you. People often come across sounding monotonous or stiff faced. A trick is to try or really have a conversionation. This will help you look and sound relaxed and authentic.
Cheers
Dig the opening song. Looking at the pic is not the same as watching a video though.
good job scott. really enjoyed the podcast. hope you plan to do more.
Dear Scott,
I really enjoy the podcast performance that you have placed here on your weblog. I will be following along to see how may more of these podcasts you produce.
Sincerely, (srsly)

In other words... yes - i have been affected. I speaks in lol cat language for half the day.
Very nice modified block letter format, Brian.
I almost forgot what it looked like.
thanks!
Quick fix, just get real drunk. If it's inaudible dub over later when you're sober! Great job for the initial run at it! keep em commin
Hi! It is hard, but it is a matter of practice, and I think you did it just fine,
the next one will be even better.
I think the way you can improve is:
1) Just do it first
2) Look it over
3) Re-do
This way some minor aspects will be corrected.

Personally, I prefer YouTube videos and using that platform to drive me massive traffic. It helps if you know how to get massive exposure on YouTube,,,
yeah, thera are many sites which use google as a promotion tool. put your ad on video, write some lame title like "s/ex, tit/s" and you've got traffic in no time...
Nice, Scott. really like the video and agree that its hard to videblog about anything
