Its a sad testimony to the state of the world that we are too lazy to read anything more than a headline to get the facts.Amy Leigh Simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13631381714658134094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382788893842947767.post-53201704483612295742012-04-24T08:51:27.478-07:002012-04-24T08:51:27.478-07:00I usually click out of longer videos too.

Maybe I just like to get to know my online friends more intimately and putting voices and mannerisms to the words makes me feel like I know who they are. :)Lacie Nezbethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04648510926045130284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382788893842947767.post-85540431793847567482012-04-24T08:41:31.354-07:002012-04-24T08:41:31.354-07:00Texting is huge.

One of the reasons I love, love, love your blog, (Julie's blog, Jaime's blog, etc.) is because they're short! I can read it, interact in the comments and be about my day. <br /><br />But it leaves me wondering, why are vlogs so dang popular right now? Do we just like to have a face and a voice to go with the text?

They text, showing me the written word is still where it's at. At least I hope so. =)Keli Gwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13236868298400593688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382788893842947767.post-52186309930385087172012-04-24T07:22:54.237-07:002012-04-24T07:22:54.237-07:00I hope not.

Although I have read somewhere (I don't remember where either) that vlogging is an important part of your platform building because it shows potential agents and publishers/ediors that you've got a good speaking presence.Heather Sunserihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12552506888985553471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382788893842947767.post-7380429234772245022012-04-24T07:06:38.463-07:002012-04-24T07:06:38.463-07:00I disagree.

I think the trend in writing for the Internet is to make it short and make it interesting. People's attention spans are getting shorter all the time due to the sheer volume of information they have to choose from. If you want them to land on your page and stay long enough to get the message you want to get across, it's going to have to be short, sweet, and memorable.Erica Vetschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772984806574666959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382788893842947767.post-58090395471940973142012-04-24T06:50:19.110-07:002012-04-24T06:50:19.110-07:00I disagree.

Plus I can skim an article, which I can't do with a video. Think of the local news. People don't watch it like they used to. They read shorter snippets of news online.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02512158365021041194noreply@blogger.com
