Videoblogging Week 2006

This is the week of vlogging dangerously. All around the globe, people are making a video every day for a week. MN-vloggers are in on the action. Check out David Howell's creepy fly, Karina Hill's slow-mo cereal spitting and disturbing duck sex, and Vlogmatic's dog tongue. More? Try Starfire or Dan & Jen's Animal Friends.

In other big local vlog news, Chasing Windmills has wrapped up their season, but they promise to return in September.

Dave: I am familiar with the challenge, and I applaud you. :-)

Dialup makes me suicidal.

Who should I use for a high-speed ISP? Who's the cheapest?

That depends where you live. My choices are rather limited. Here in Mound, Mediacom is the only cable provider and the DSL service is poor at best.

We've got the Time-WArner digital cable + cable modem. That's not so cheap. Twin Cities Internet has pretty affordable DSL - anybody have experience with them?

Yay! Thanks Chuck!

I hope my video today will be less disturbing. I'm not making any promises though.

Thanks Chuck, nice you pay attention to local vlogs. I had a hard time, my hosting provider was down for almost 2 days so I'm a little behind.
De dogtongue is now on http://vlogmatic.com/?p=32 but if you go to the mainpage you mwil find two other vlogs. More to come.

That's why you can find chuck slinging rock in NE on the weekends. Man's gotta get paid.
