Why spend time discouraging anyone from doing anything they want to do? I find that odd. It’s much more of a condition for people to be afraid to express themselves or try new things or break out of the crowd – all things that can occur with a video blog.

heh. That’s very interesting. :)

however, it’s more like you “fell in love with him because of his vision, and passion for expressing himself no matter how *LITTLE* money it would ever make”! ;)

Guess what? My husband is a video artist. The last link in my blog about video blogging is to his art.

When I met him, he was the first person at the UCLA film program to work with interactive video, and the piece he was working on became part of the UCLA film school curriculum.

I fell in love with him because of his vision, and passion for expressing himself no matter how much money it would ever make. So I totally know where you’re coming from on this.

What I learned from you is that I need to be really careful to give each of my posts context. I hope that I can discourage people from starting a video blog as a way to promote themselves in their business life, because I don’t think it works. But I like to think that I make my own contribution to those never-gonna-get-paid video artistis by supporting my husband in his work.

Thanks for keeping me in line :)
