Now that I am back in action, I have a question for you all. How would you feel about Talkin’ Shit going to video? I was recently writing a post when it dawned on me that my personality doesn’t really come through the way I want it to. I thought about how to fix that, and what I came up with was doing a Vlog (video blog). I figure the videos would be somewhere in the area of 2 minutes depending on the topic. So what do you all think?
Your Opinion Please

Talkin' Shit 
I’ve always wanted to do a vlog, but the camera scares me. 🙂 I say go for it.
I’d pass, but go for it. You don’t exist until you are on YouTube
I think doing verbal posts and video together would be best. Like a verbal Monday-Thursday and video on Friday. It saves time and helps us out 🙂
I think that is a wonderful idea, and you will certainly reach a wider audience. Although, I love reading, many people do not. So, you will be able to reach people who would never take the time to read through an entire blog entry. I say go for it. Keep the videos short, entertaining, and full of information, and you will be great 🙂
Go for it. Just tell us how to make sure we are connected.
Go for it! I’m starting my first vlog and I think it’s fun 🙂
It’s not my cup of tea, I’m into the writing part of it. I don’t even have a television, if that tells you how I feel about video presentation. But I’ll bet it’ll be popular, so give it a whirl.
Frankly, I am so tired of everything going video that I could scream! I have limited internet. I can watch you once, and read you from them on, or just keep reading you. 😉
Personally, I like being able to read things due to the amount of free time I have. Videos are on the maker’s time, not mine so I tend to pass them up. HOWEVER, I have thought of this many times myself for the same reason. So maybe you could do a 1/2 and 1/2?
I enjoy words so personally I’d hate to see you go completely to vlog but would be cool I think to maybe do a Friday vlog or some such.
well now..thats really upping the ante isnt it
You’re back ! Greetings!
I think it’d be rather cool. I always fancy finding out some deep dark secrets of other bloggers.. like a tough cookie with chocolate stuffing or a standoffish sea star with marshmallow sweethearts. Rainbows and unicorns fly ye know.
I’m old school, a fast reader, and impatient so I’d rather skim an article rather than watch a video – but we live in a world basically comprised of fast action/lights flashing/over the top “let me see” presentation – so most people would probably like it. Go for it.
I like video blogs, so go for it 🙂
I really enjoy reading but I also follow several vloggers. The drawback with watching is that I get so sidetracked by other suggested videos that I waste a lot of time. A mix of both would be good.
WELL SAID.
Maybe a combo of both written and Vlogging? I love your written word,but if you think that the spoken word works better for you, why not give it a go,too!
I agree with making it a combo.. My laptop doesn’t like to play the video’s…so at home I’d have to read them.
Welcome back 🙂
I was thinking of doing that too, in part to just practice vlogging as public speaking. I think it’s a great idea to do a combo!
