So VCAM has launched a weekly video blog called the VCAM VCAST (not to be confused with this sort of Vcast).  The first episode is up on the VCAM blog and blip.tv.  It's an experiment, but I'm confident that we'll be able to make some good, short-format video content for the web with this thing.  This first one is just a test really.  Next week, we'll actually have a subject of some kind. 

On a related note, I had lunch today with Brad Robertson, the new president and publisher of the Burlington Free Press.  Brad is keen to build up the Freeps' web presence considerably and was talking to me about video, blogging and videoblogging.  We didn't come up with a specific plan for my involvement with Burlington's paper of record, but it's possible something interesting could emerge from our conversation today.  I have a few ideas.  Brad impressed me.  He's read lots of Chris Anderson and John Battelle and seems quite hip to the whole web 2.0 thing, the power of the long tail, and the influence of democratizing technologies on culture and business.  He just might be the breath of fresh air that the Freeps needs.  Hell, maybe I'm the breath of fresh air that the Freeps needs!  :)
