See Me, Blog Me

May 31st, 2004

A neat article from Time on “vlogs” or video blogs:

“Boston-based music-video producer Steve Garfield, 46, is no ordinary blogger. Instead of simply posting his thoughts online in a chatty weblog like millions of others around the world, he links a Canon GL2 digital video camera to his laptop and uploads short clips of protest rallies, traffic short-cuts and even news events onto his personal Internet site.”

Librarians, think of the possibilities of using video clips in your weblogs. There can be real-time tutorials on how to use the online catalogs and fee-based databases, or a tour of the library (just a few that popped in my head).
