Sun Feb 5 12:30:47 PST 2006

   I'm on some internet marketing newsletters, looking for new ways to 
promote FST and ebooks.  There is a lot of hype, but sometimes useful 
information. Helps me stay motivated.
   Video can be done in Flash??

>Jim Edwards here with this week's article (below)...

>This will be published in tomorrow's paper, but you get the
>"scoop" today :-)
>
>With the rise of online video, several video portals have
>gained tremendous popularity... creating a situation where
>you can get a lot of FR-EE exposure for your own online
>videos and your website.
>
>In fact, one of the sites I talk about in the article below
>has a national TV show that does nothing but play web videos
>to millions of viewers.
>
>Online video is a phenomenon that can't be ignored... it's
>taking over the Internet, and creating a situation where
>someone with a video camera and a good idea can compete
>with companies operating with million dollar budgets.
>
>It's not about the tools any more, it's about knowing WHAT
>to do with them that counts :-)
>
>To your success,
>

>If you didn't realize that video will take over online this
>year, you haven't been paying attention.
>
>Everything from video blogs to full-blown website
>infomercials keep cropping up all across the Internet.
>
>The driving force behind this video explosion is a
>combination of cheap bandwidth, easy-to-use authoring tools,
>and Flash video (a video format that works on both PC and
>MAC).
>
>With the sudden increase in homemade videos about everything
>from "how-to break dance" to infomercials about real estate
>products, it seems only natural that another explosion
>should follow: the appearance of numerous websites that
>showcase these homegrown Steven Spielberg's.
>
>In fact, these online videos have gained so much popularity
>some have even crossed over into mainstream television.
>
>Of the three main online video hosting services I looked at,
>they all shared the following characteristics.
>
>They all allow you to upload your video and host it free of
>charge, making it super easy for even the most technically
>challenged videographer.
>
>They all allow visitors to search their sites using
>keywords, so describing your video and choosing a good title
>(with keywords people search for) will help increase your
>exposure.
>
>One of the most exciting features common to these sites is
>that they allow you and others to get copy-and-paste code
>that you can place on a blog or website (or anywhere else
>you can paste html code) and display a video without hosting
>it yourself.
>
>This one feature can cause an explosive "viral" effect if
>you create a video that appeals to a mass audience because
>people can not only pass it along, but post it in additional
>locations for everyone to see.
>
>Video.Google.com - Google's video service makes it possible
>to upload and play your videos for people searching through
>their growing catalog of homegrown video.
>
>You'll find everything from web-cam karaoke to infomercials
>and "live" seminars. One of the best things about Google
>video is the daily report about how many pages views your
>video got during the previous day or week.
>
>Also, Google allows you to charge for your videos if you
>want, something the other sites don't yet offer.
>
>A disadvantage of the service is that, of the three, Google
>Video takes the longest to approve your videos and make them
>available, sometimes taking 48 hours or longer to make a
>video "live."
>
>YouTube.com - YouTube seems to want to foster a feeling of
>community with its video portal.
>
>Unlike Google Video, which requires a separate software
>program to upload video, YouTube allows users to upload
>video right through their website interface. Of the three
>sites profiled here, YouTube's embedded player makes it
>easiest to share and pass along video from a blog.
>
>They also approved my video and had it live online in less
>than 10-minutes.
>
>IFilm.com - The coolest thing about IFilm.com is the fact
>that they have a show on VH1 every Friday called "Web Junk
>20" which features the funniest web videos of the week on
>real television.
>
>They also actively promote the concept of "viral videos"
>with a separate category in their directory profiling videos
>you want to share.
>
>The only negative was that their pass-along player forces
>viewers to watch a short ad about IFilm at the beginning,
>something the other two don't do.
