DISQUS

bradhart · 1 year ago

I agree video is important. One of the most effective bloggers doing it in my opinion is Darren Rowse over at http://www.problogger.net. He has even run a couple of videos on making videos if I recall right.

I did a post not so long back from common craft showing how they were using simple video to illustrate complex techniques. I don't know if you saw before it or not on your last visit. It was entitled "the power of how to" http://www.bradsotherblog.com/?p=39 I am thinking of using a similar technique to explain some concepts in wordpress 2.5 like gravatars, or even other avatar widgets like MyBlogLog.


What I would really like to make is the video that adequately explains how a page getting a dozen unique hits a day only manages 1 independent comment over a week. That would likely become the staple of every fledgling blogger to watch and link too just to make themselves feel better.

That's a fantastic video from Jack. Thanks for sharing, Sara.

I can't wait to see your video blogs. They can be hard work to do, but they're also a lot of fun. :)

P.S. It looks like your blog theme went a little crazy again.

Brad:

Those newbie videos are very cool. They could save many people from looking really stupid their first time posting on a forum. You know, that newbie who gets blasted.

Someone says: "I created a linkbait and sent it to Digg, but I'm not sure the anchor text was right but then my pagerank went up so I figured Shoemoney's post was right after all." And the newbie writes back: "What's linkbait? Who's Digg? Can someone please explain the purpose of anchor text? What is a pagerank? Who's Shoemoney?"

And he accidentally sends it four times because he isn't sure it posted right.

Then the entire forum attacks him and sends him snotty links to Wikipedia and ask.com. I think beginner videos could really help alleviate some of that.

Jamie:

I'm not sure how soon I'll be getting videos together, but I have everything I need. Thanks for pointing out the theme problem, I'm working on getting it fixed.
