Video Blogging?
Tuesday, September 28, 2010
The newest craze in blogging is video blogging. And I have to admit, I do kind of like this idea—so much that I even invested in a miniature video camera, a Flip camera, which can take up to two hours of video of a quality that’s perfect for the YouTube generation, then be plugged straight into the computer via a built-in USB plug for download.
I posted this a couple of weeks ago on my Facebook author page, but wanted to go ahead and share it here, too.
If I were to start doing a video blog once a week, what kinds of things would you like to see? Writing topics? Chats? Self-interviews with questions you send me?

Oh definitely do the video blog on the more personal aspects of your life! Interviews, decor, hobbies, etc…. It sounds like so much fun!

I noticed someone suggested recipes as a newsletter feature in your post yesterday…just had a random thought, you could do a video cooking blog, “Feeding the Writer” or something like that.

I would love to see personal videos, movie critiques, writing topics, most anything.

Ohhh…what a great idea. I would love to experiment with it myself if I weren’t the shy type. But I think that you can talk about anything that has to do with writing. There’s so much to cover and I never get enough of it.
Thanks for the great blog!

I like the cooking thing too. Another idea would be to take a friend downtown with you and get them to film you showing a favorite store, park, etc.

Kaye, this would be perfect for you. You are a great speaker. Some video blogs I have watched were filled with ahs, ums, and were not well thought out.

Hmmmm….maybe self-interviews with questions from your readers/fans!

A lot of actors and musicians have video blogs. It does give them quite a bit of publicity.
