It's coming . . .

In the following week or so I will try to mange my own video to put up here. Since I am an opinionated person with alot of time on my hands I thought I'd make a short on my personal thoughts on the internet networking triforce: MySpace Facebook and Twitter. Just a little snippet or two with scrrenshot visuals added in. So watch closely for my personalized update to come!

Newspapers in Motion

Over the weekend I found two newpaper sites that offered video on the top 100 newspapers online in America. It would seem that all the top newspapers in America have a section right on their home page for multimedia and display the lastest in their archieve of video such as
The New York Times.

The NYT has a large library of news videos that are presentable and offer great sound quality. The section is easy to find and navigate since all you have to do is locate that 4x5 inch black video box.

Newspapers like Salt Lake City Tribune also offer a multimedia section on their home page. However, there is no lastest preveiw like in The New Yorker so the section is not zAlso, the multimedia consists of slideshows as well as video without the massive variety.

All in all it would seem any newspaper in the topp 100 of America has video on their site and manages the section with at least some amount craft; some just have more than others, and that's why their higher on the list!

iReport

The following videos are from iReport.com:
Video Game Factory Line:

This video I found very interesting as it talked about, roughly, how a game is made, at least down at MIT. The segment was particularly well done and certinaly telvision ready and worthy. If I was on CNN's dork news I'd put this up there. It takes a lot of time out of leveling up to go out and get those interveiws afterall!

Jazan Wild

This slide-show put on display the comic artwork of Jazan Wild. Recently released (2008), I found the artwork to be wonderfully done. After seeing this I really want to go and check out the series. Granted, this small bit of news might not be worthy enough to up on CNN but for anyone looking for a gruesome new comic book series, it's a sweet find.

Spiritual, but not Religious

Seeing as how Easter was this past Sunday, I decided to put up a video abut faith. Here is a woman on iReport that have many of the same values that I share as well as parts that got me thinking. I think that her video is very well written for the people in the "gray area", that is to say, people that appreciate religion but are not overzelous about it. Seeing as how CNN has taken other videos that broadcast one person's opinion- I believe that this one would been well worth considering. At the very least, maybe it will inspire you to put down the second or third chocolate bunny next year.

Uranus



Current.com has some great news and links including this one: Uranus Apparel! This is an eco-friendly project to "help save the planet starting with uranus" and specialize in soy panties that I admit look pretty cute and comfy.
