I've edited video clips into montages and music videos before, which makes me wonder if we'll video blog.
Have you seen any vlogs?
I've only seen a few, which usually consist of someone sitting in poor lighting at their desk looking into a cheap webcam yelling and screaming about something not worth caring about. I've had webcams for a long time, but haven't ever really used them. The quality usually sucks.
Vlogs will need to be done well or not at all. Whether it's the form of a newscast, a reporter-on-the-scene, or a compliation of video clips to music to re-hash what has happened, sitting in a dark room on a lousy webcam won't cut it.
Individual vlogs? Maybe for posterity, but not for publication on the web.
Group vlogs? Perhaps, though I think mini-newscasts would work best - whether it's serious, half-serious, or totally 'weekend update' SNL style. So... let's call it a vlog, because then we'll have a 2.0 savvy name.
