i also saw a microsoft product that let’s multiple users engage in discussion online from remote locations. it looked complicated but should be easy to use.
we have a construction consultation idea that we would think video would work for. where did this come from and does it have a hand held video option?
comments from seesmic {seesmic_video:{”url_thumbnail”:{”value”:”http://t.seesmic.com/thumbnail/5eu4vPZpte_th1.jpg”}”title”:{”value”:”comments from seesmic ”}”videoUri”:{”value”:”http://www.seesmic.com/video/BeLOg5GPmk”}}}
I think this is great. A lot of people don’t type that fast; hence, commenting is more difficult for them. And sometimes it would just take too long to address a particular issue by typing. I think people will add comments using this that wouldn’t have been otherwise because sometimes it’s a lot easier just to say it.
can you make adjustments {seesmic_video:{”url_thumbnail”:{”value”:”http://t.seesmic.com/thumbnail/OcQQwbV0iE_th1.jpg”}”title”:{”value”:”can you make adjustments ”}”videoUri”:{”value”:”http://www.seesmic.com/video/HhvTJhaDAj”}}}
i can’t figure out the vocals yet. it should let record.
any tips?
Dustin, do you think video comments will replace text?

Dustin, I can’t believe how much slower you’re speaking (as compared to the seminar).
I’ll give the video a try when my hubby isn’t playing his Doors albums. Will it work with a Mac (that’s the only computer that currently has a camera)?
while putting up the next video comment it recorded over the video i already put up. i’m having some learning curve issues.
Thanks Dustin…this is the 1st time using our video camera! {seesmic_video:{”url_thumbnail”:{”value”:”http://t.seesmic.com/thumbnail/qLUNNE9qfe_th1.jpg”}”title”:{”value”:”Thanks Dustin…this is the 1st time using our video camera! ”}”videoUri”:{”value”:”http://www.seesmic.com/video/r9BrclGcJK”}}}

Just a quick note, I found that I need to click on “add a video comment” and then I select “anonymous”. I tried logging on to creat an account w/Seesmic and was not successful (don’t know if that’s a Mac issue).
Now if I could only get a stunt double!
no it doesn’t let you log in but does show your name.

I think the videos have a sticky quality. Dustin, I felt like I was (almost) having a live conversation with you–a step beyond texting.
I do thank you for this because video and pod casts are things I want to add to my blogging efforts and you just forced me closer to that!
Just discovered my issue w/registering….my name was taken…so I’m using another instead. I’ll give it a try at my next video moment (most likely tomorrow sometime).

manana. it records now but doesn’t translate to the post.

My first impression was, “Do you think anyone will use it?” Lo and behold I click to comment and I see that some are. I think with the growing trend of the use of video in blogs that this is a natural option. As a reader, I did find myself spending a little more time here to watch a few, and I guess that is what you want.
