I second what Alison said. I too am a newbie to this group, and am
very interested in utilising videoblogging as a medium for Deaf
people throughout the world, but particularly the UK.
The Deaf community in the UK have started to latch on to the
phenomenon that is blogging. Many Deaf individuals are already
utilising this ability to rant and rave at the injustices of the
world, oh yeah, and to tell people all the boring day-to-day things
we've been up to as well!
More Deaf people would be more inclined, I think, to visit a
videoblog than a simple blog, for the simple fact that it will be
accessible in THEIR language, British Sign Language.
How feasible is to to create a videoblog? Are there are any good
examples I can check out?
