I’ve noticed that you’ve been video blogging as well as writing recently – you’re not the only one, and it’s also not just restricted to IT blogs – it’s everywhere! Some of my favourite bloggers now do many video posts (e.g. http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/). I love the content, but just find I watch videos less than I read text. Especially in a public environment or an office. RSS feeds can be set up to syndicate the entire content (e.g. with FeedBurner), and I prefer that setup as well. Having to click through to a website can be a pain.

Yes, I have noticed the added summaries you’ve been doing on the Networkers videos over the VMworld ones. Please don’t forget us that prefer to read over watching .

Thanks for the comment,

My annoyance is RSS feeds that only send a snippet and force you to visit the site to read the whole thing.

But you make a good point my friend. Use video when it adds value. I use it for events, where you want to show the VIBE through imagery and audio.

I have also been pondering that a good textual summary of video key elements is really important, you should not have to go through a few minutes to see if you are interested in something.

Great post, be patient while a few of use video bloggers work it out. If I look at my video blogs from VMworld to Networkers there is a huge difference. Lets see what improvements can be made for vForum.
