The Guardian of London has a great article about video blogs,
\n or vlogs, featuring the very slick site put together by Luuk
\n Bouwman<\/a>:<\/em><\/p>\n

Mr Bouwman is the vanguard of the latest internet trend: video logging
\n or vlogging. One step up from the now familiar internet blogger, vloggers
\n upload personal video clips of everything from the US Democratic convention
\n to what they had for their tea, via rants about tax rises and conspiracy
\n theories.<\/p>\n

The article also quotes extensively from fellow Convention blogger Steve
\n Garfield<\/a>,who has an excellent vlog <\/a>of this own:<\/em><\/p>\n

Steve Garfield, a video producer from Boston, Massachusetts, has no
\n problems with the medium. He uses his website to be a "citizen journalist",
\n which he describes as "anyone who decides to tell a story and share
\n it".<\/p>\n

Mr Garfield posts about two vlogs a week, on everything from beer and local human
\ninterest stories to an off-beat daily report from the recent Democratic convention.
\nThere are still only a few hundred vlogging sites on the web – compared with
\nliterally thousands of blogging sites – but Mr Garfield predicts that more internet
\nusers will get involved in vlogging once the technological barriers come down.<\/p>\n

"As tools come out that make it easier, more people will start creating
\nvideo blogs," he says. "The barriers to entry now are the number of
\nsteps it takes to get a video published on the web. You’ve got to shoot the video,
\ndigitise it, edit it, compress it for web delivery, upload it to a host and post
\nit to your blog."<\/p>\n

We wanna try, we wanna try…<\/em><\/p>\n
