Video Bytes From The Web
Jim Edwards here with an article (below) that relates to the
3,000 mile trip I took this week…
As you read this article today (Thursday), I’ll most likely
be teaching the “Website Video Secrets” Workshop that Mike
Stewart and I are doing in Los Angeles.
www.WebsiteVideoSecrets.com
If you learn nothing else from me this year… learn this:
online video is now HERE and it’s a real FACTOR in online
business.
Why do I say this?
Several facts:
~ The recent release of the video iPod (which makes
downloading video easy for non-techies);
~ The continued growth of Google Video (which means streaming video
and bandwidth costs virtually nothing);
~ The release of Flash 8 and the widespread acceptance of
FLV video;
~ and about a dozen other factors!
Bottom Line: 2006 is the year online video explodes!
Feel free to share this article on your blog, on your
website, in your autoresponder, or in your newsletter (see
simple reprint instructions at the end).
To your success,
Jim

** Handheld Video **
Apple Computers recently announced the addition of a small
video screen to its new iPod, the perennial favorite
portable MP3 music player.
Apple’s announcement comes as no surprise to many “expert”
market watchers, but their stock did go up about 10% within
days of the announcement.
Though certainly not the first handheld video player on the
market, it carries the power of Apple’s iTunes distribution
channel behind it.
That means instead of getting a video player and then
searching for content to play on it, users of the new video
iPod can easily download and play their favorite videos, TV
shows and more from the already hugely popular iTunes
service.
For information marketers and small business owners, this
means a whole new world just opened up for video content
distribution.
Home video enthusiasts will also benefit because of the ease
with which you can now share high quality video with friends
and family.
The iPod plays not only Apple’s proprietary QuickTime video
format, but the newer Mpeg 4 video format which offers a
much higher compression rate (and smaller video file sizes)
than previous formats.
Though others partially paved the way, the age of handheld
video finally arrived.
** Video Title Gem **
I recently found a piece of software that just plain rates
“cool” when it comes to creating title screens and sequences
for your digital videos.
With just a few mouse clicks it enables you to create title
sequences that look like you spent hours in development
time, instead of less than 10 minutes!
Log on to www.blufftitler.us for free examples of what the
software can do, along with a free trial download.
You can also view a 20 minute tutorial on how to use the
software (a video quick-start guide) at www.mediablitzed.com
Once you complete your title sequence, you can save it in a
number of different formats which you then import into your
digital video editor for inclusion in your finished movie.
** Google Video Maturing **
Several months ago I reported that Google launched a video
service at http://Video.Google.com where they solicited
users to upload their video content.
At the time, with the exception of local and national news
content, very few actual videos showed up for playing
online.
After a recent check of the service, the lack of videos
certainly reversed itself.
Though not overflowing with video content, the Google Video
service does carry a significant number of videos now and a
search under your main keyword topic should produce at least
a couple of related videos.
Since the search engine can’t actually search the content of
a video or audio file, the one drawback to the system stems
from that fact that the search engine must decide what
represents a “relevant” search from text that accompanies
the video.
This text typically ranges from just a few words to an
entire transcript of the video.
As such, a search for “employment tips” results in video
from the Employment & Career Channel along with the Long
Beach City Council hearings on development impacts on
employment.
However, once Google gets the search aspect of video ironed
out, watch for this service to explode in popularity.

Dear Jim,
I wrote this article and it kinda fits in to what you do, how you may ask? Simple have you ever heard somone say, if I knew now what I didn’t know then, I’d go back in a heart beat:) My question to you Jim is, this is a look at what it is like if we did go back! If this is not the kind of post you like, please don’t hesitate to let me know, you have my e-mail adress. I belive you are going to love it!
I Want To Rock!
By Arthur Buchanan\
What do I mean I want rock? I must be showing my age, it was a heavy mental band from the eighties, Twisted Sister. Does this mean I think we all should bang are heads? I don’t think so. Now if we aren’t to bang our heads what are we supposed to do?
Have you ever said to yourself, if I knew now what I didn’t know then, I would go back in a heartbeat? I believe that most people in there thirties would normally say this, let’s take a closer look at this statement. Would you really go back in life if you were to be sixteen again?
I mean all the new drugs, ecstasy and the like, cigarette companies trying to get you hooked by going after the 14 to 16 year olds, because if they can they know that they have a sucker for life. Now I bet you are saying to yourself they say not to smoke now, then why I asked do you see all the magazine ads look so cool and how you look great with a cigarette in your hand.
Same with chew, dip, rub, snuff, well all know the baseball players do it and none of them are dying. Wrong answer there is plenty of baseball players to old to play anymore but they are only thirty-eight or thirty-nine. Far from over the hill, that come down with mouth cancer, we never here of those sad, sad stories of how half there jaw was removed, yet every kid wants to be like the big boys so they give it a try and then they get hooked and it is all over but the crying, so it gets passed down to another generation. So now, we look at peer pressure and the fact that every song on the radio is about sex, sex, sex so now you have to worry about being sexually active at a young age.
Of course, you want more than your parents had, and this makes you an unruly kid, and you want it now! Let’s not leave out the fact that they are not letting kids be kids anymore, I mean they shove school work down their throats at such a young age, they barely get to bang their knee.
Now let’s not forget about alcohol and how dangerous it is becoming to drink. Now people will call them social drinking, well let me tell you, what I know about social drinking, it doesn’t exist because when people start to get a buzz, this is when it is hard to stop, because you feel so good, so you decide at the tender age of 17 you are going to get drunk at this weekends party.
You get drunk and have unsafe sex, opps I may not be pregnant but the Doctor says I have aides, do you really think there is still social drinking? You and I both know that you would have never slept with him or her and to top it all off, your boyfriend didn’t know you cheated on him and you have sex with him infecting him with HIV and now you are pregnant!
Now you have slain your first-born child who has aids because you thought it would be ok to have a “SOCIAL DRINKâ€. Now do you see all the pressure of the younger generation and what they must face today? Would you really want to go back after all that we have seen, or would you stay in your easy chair and try and raise your children to the best of your ability?
I mean does it really sound that appealing to you, as I take a closer look at the situation, I see pain and lots of it and all I can think is the fact that I DON’T WANT ROCK and as far as that goes, let the eighties end, it was a sexual revelation that needs to put to rest, that we can teach our kids, what we did wrong and why they should try and learn from our mistakes. I don’t want to rock!
I prefer Barry Manilows Even Now! It kind of goes like this, even I wake up crying in the middle of the night wondering where you are and what I’ve done, even now, even now I wake up crying asking myself were you are and what I have done wrong, even now that we have come so far, I wondering what where you are and what you’d do if you knew,
that even know I wake up crying in the middle of the night wondering were you are and what you’d do if you knew, I still cared! Therefore, I say once again, I don’t want to go back and I don’t want to rock anymore, because even now I wake up crying!
