BusinessWeek Representin'

Videobloggers got 2 articles in business week today:

Online Video: The Sequel

Let A Million Videos Bloom Online

Indeed!

To all you who got here because of the BusinessWeek article:

1) Subscribe to my feed


2) Donate money so I don't run out of bandwidth (which i already did this month). This stuff costs money, unfortunately.
Besides, you read BusinessWeek, you must have money....(gross generalization)

V-Blog Conversation

a response to jay's video


Geek-Fest USA

ok kids
i re-un-compressed this, huh?
i made this video way more bearable using the free 3ivx codec for QT pro.
http://3ivx.com
thanks to Daniell Krawczyk from the yahoo group who suggested i download this for compression.

!!!!GUYS you have to try this compressor!!!!
it's like sorenson squeeze (which is an amazing compressor that costs 400$)
only it's free. hell yeah.
it's doing wonders for the video size and quailty choices.
can i get an AMEN?
