So. You've made your
first vlog and told everyone that you didn't know what you were doing.
Sweet. What's next?
Well, one tactic that especially adventurous vloggers like to do is to treat the videoblogging experience like Twitter.
Like BAD Twitter.
Like the Twitter that you're afraid of finding in your timeline so you never even log on. Like the Twitter that you used to write when you didn't know what Twitter was and you thought that Facebook was just a fad and why can't we all just go back to MySpace already?!
Like this:
And-- just like
last week-- this seems to work best when you don't have anything interesting or informative to share with the audience! People love being bored to death! It's crazy how that works! Those YouTube subscriptions should just start rolling in!
If you try out any of our
vlogging tips, let us know how it goes-- especially if any of them work out for you, because, frankly, that's something we can only imagine. Seriously.
Come back next week when we'll discuss how to deal with the haters...
Lauren Galanter here, Content & Video Manager for My Damn Channel. Today I'm guest blogging something important which I just found out about.
Before joining the My Damn Channel family, I was an editor for Alive in Baghdad. Brian Conley, the creator, has been detained in Beijing. From the statement of Students for a Free Tibet, the group Conley was working with:
"Beijing - Brian Conley, creator of the well-known videoblog, Alive in
Baghdad, was detained with his friend, Jeffrey Rae, early Tuesday,
August 19th in Beijing. Their detention appears to have taken place at
the same time as that of international artist James Powderly, whose
detention was reported Tuesday. Three other bloggers and activists,
Jeff Goldin, Michael Liss, and Tom Grant, have also been missing since
Tuesday morning. Conley, 28, Rae, 28, Goldin, 40, Liss, 35, Grant, 39
are all American citizens."
Our content is different here, but we share the same goal of breaking new ground in online video. Spread the word to help a fellow video pioneer!

The article on SFT, to be updated with ways to help.
UPDATE: Conley and others given 10 day sentence
