Videoblogging using Facebook and Viddler

Uncategorized

Last night I saw that Connie Crosby had made a video straight into Facebook using her Macbook, so I installed the Facebook Video application and made a little movie for my own profile using my webcam.

Today I noticed that 6 of my friends have now added the ap, so I wanted to make another little video asking them to hurry up and start posting videos. When I tried to do this, there was an error saving…and by the fifth time of saying the same thing, I was sounding a little loopy.

I decided to try out viddler, which has a facility to record staight to the site. I used the “highest” quality setting, but even then the audio pickup is not as good as Facebook.

Maybe I need to get a microphone like they used for the podcast Lachie recorded in the Librarians series tonight. (Dear world, please note..they showed librarians running an English as a Second Language class, dealing with porn on public internet PCs, podcasting and handling graffiti on the building..welcome to libraryland)

I can understand how people could get addicted to daily videoblogging. Here’s the results of my viddler upload.
