Previously I raised a topic I didn't have any stake in, distinguishing
Personal and Show vlogs. It didn't go anywhee probably because 1) the
categorization may be irrelevant and 2) I had not point of view to
express and develop on it.
For this topic I want to look at the salient or essential quality of
video on a distributed network. The phrase "information wants to be
free" I see as for video on the network wants to travel where ever it
is allowed. Like a river, it will find any avenues that are open in
it's path. That it is the distributed nature of the web that defines
video. And that traveling everywhere it can is the essential element
of net video whether it's a videoblog, video podcast or another form
of distribution.
