No one seems interested in long, high quality content. The problem is that all of the video sharing sites out there really only want either low quality movies, or short high quality ones.

If the news media chooses to ignore it, it'll lose a connection with readers on an intimate daily basis. If not careful, the mainstream media as we know it will become a bit less relevant with each passing day. Bloggers have the ability to create personal news entities. When ordinary people contribute photos, videos and news updates, many would argue they are doing journalism. When bloggers comment on and link to news stories, is that journalism?

One session I liked in particular was the one by John Dvorak and Om Malik who talked about blogs and journalism (that talk can be seen on One Man’s Blog). I also liked the panel (and hanging out a little) with Jeremy Wright of b5media, who talked about blog monetization through finding your niche. Other great sessions include the Designing Massively Multiplayer Social Systems (her slides) and the Usability Analysis of WP, both of which got me to think a lot about the design of my own projects.

You now have the choices to watch it here, download a Quicktime file, or watch the high quality version over on Blip.tv. Seems like that should cover most bases. John Ok, good news folks.

I've already uploaded it to Google Video, but they are "transcoding" it... meaning they are butchering it with horrible compression. As soon as it's complete I'll let everyone know. I'm also trying to find some adequate settings for compression which will let me get the 1 hour long video down under 100 MB with reasonable quality for uploading to all of the other services. I'm confident that within the next few hours I'll be able to break through this barrier. John I’m currently working on it Douglas.

If I could even just get it to around 200 MB then at least it could be uploaded in two parts. After it's finished in a couple of hours I'll upload it to Google Video either way. The only problem there is that sometimes their compression is so lossy that it is almost unbearable to watch. Still, I guess that people would rather watch something that looks crappy than not be able to watch anything at all. ;-) I'll keep you apprised. John Patrick,

And according to the site: <blockquote> If your video file is over 100 MB, please use the desktop uploader. </blockquote> So they do support over 100 MB, so it may work for you. Mind you have to use their tool. I wonder if its some failing in upload scripts. I've seen the 100MB limit quite a bit.

Just one of these 1 hour videos is already bigger than that, so looks like they are out. Metacafe only allows 100 MB files, as does iFilm.

It works just fine. The only problem is with very long (10 minutes to start) buffering times with the Windoze Media Player. The video sometimes stops during play so that WMP can catch its breath and buffer some more. I'm on a 2Mbps line; adequate but not blazing fast. :) You did a good job with the sound, John.
