I am the developer of a web application for music playlists at webjay.org.
By accident this turns out to be a good platform for videoblogging, so
there is a groundswell of videoblogging among the users. The lucky
accident is that the SMIL editor and infrastructure for swapping links
work almost as well for video as it does for music.
Because the Webjay playlist editor wasn't designed with video in mind, it
has a lot of flaws in that regard. If there is anything I can do to
support the videoblogging community with technology, please don't hesitate
to ask. The bugs are getting fixed and the features are being added, and
eventually I think it'll be a fine tool.
