My keynote at vloggercon

Peter — Thu, 29 Jun 2006 19:35:27 +0000

My keynote at vloggercon is now live. Remembering vloggercon is a bottom-up conference, organized by the community, it’s amazing that for 2 years now it’s the absolutely best archived conference in existence. ALL talks are available online as videos, for both years. And were streamed live. And this is on the cheap!

When I was in Laos, I sprained my ankle badly, and the village doctors tried to heal it by calling out to the spirits. Maria made a great video: thevillagedoctors.mov (video/quicktime Object)

A good movie overview of what’s new in Drupal:

The marathon came by today by our house in 129th St.. The NY marathon rocks. And Harlem rocks harder.

Did you encourage a videoblogger today

Peter — Fri, 12 Aug 2005 06:00:48 +0000

As the early videobloggers, we need to tell people about this, and show them. I was just encouraging a potential videoblogger, and to show them how fast it goes, here’s the movie (10 mins later - Quicktime, about a meg).

Peter — Thu, 11 Aug 2005 20:01:47 +0000

Haven’t videoblogged in a while. I downloaded the Ourmedia uploader and it’s good. I build this Instant Archive feature on Mefeedia today, and everyone just plain loves it, and it just struck me how crazy it is that you can truly only build good things if you really, really talk to users. Here’s the movie. (Quicktime, about a meg)

This is a test: reposting a vlog entry.

I asked some people at the recent IASummit about folksonomies in the hallways. PeterMe thinks the IAs have a better conversation going on around folksonomies than the techies - I’m not so sure. I’ve been a bit dissapointed with the lack of IA’s speaking up in the blogosphere about this.

The panel at the IA Summit was good though. It lacked insights about integrating folksonomies with other approaches (how exactly, folks?), and there were some misconceptions (synonyms are NOT a problem with folksonomies, they’re a problem with the technology. Google solved search query synonyms pretty well, the folksonomies will do the same.), but overall it was great to hear IA’s speak up. Too bad we don’t do this publicly, enough (and I’m as guilty as the next guy).

Peter Morville’s part of the panel was brilliant. I’d actually never seen him speak - he had me laugh out lout quite a few times. David Weinberger’s favourite metaphor (folksonomies are leaves falling of the trees) was extended in many ways. Peter Morville: “what happens with leaves that are raked together? They rot. And become food. For trees. Which then live long and useful lives.” There was more talk about trees having many shapes, trees blocking out the light for new things to grow, people bumping into trees which can cause pain and so on. Fun.

Anyways,
here’s the movie (Quicktime, 7M)

Ryanne’s Video Blog: a video entry about the buster controversy: where a bunny is being censored because they mention same sex couples.

Another old movie, this one from early 2004. Jay talking about videoblogging (Quicktime, 38M).

Peter — Thu, 17 Feb 2005 11:23:34 +0000

This is an old movie - the first one I ever edited. It’s Jay pre-videoblogging, talking about ways to connect. Jay in 2003. (Quicktime, 7M)

I went to see The Gates in NYC central park. I saw so many people making video with small digital cameras, I wish they were all vloggers. This is my video (Quicktime, 10M):

Vloggercon: Tools. (Quicktime) I was in this session. The cool thing with these vlogging tools is that, no matter how hard the big $$ companies try, all the really cool tools are being developed by us kids in the basement.

Peter — Fri, 11 Feb 2005 00:53:42 +0000

Vloggercon: Content is king. (Quicktime) “Discussion leaders: Steve Garfield, Mica Scalin, Ryanne Hodson, Chris Weagel, Jay Dedman Creating and posting videos is the key.”

Peter — Fri, 11 Feb 2005 00:53:02 +0000

Vloggercon: sustainability (Quicktime) Just another word for making money? Or more? I’m linking to these videos here so they can be tagged, sliced and diced in Mefeedia.
