Video Blogging

Video blog, also known as a vlog, is a web blog in which the medium is video rather than text. Just like other blogs the content is made regularly and most of the time it is a combination of text, images and other metadata, hence they provide the user with a richer web experience. Most video bloggers believe that it allows for more natural expression as compared to a normal blog.

These days video blogging is becoming popular with bloggers and podcasters because new technologies (digital or mobile phone cameras) make it easy to produce images and videos rather than writing loads of text.

It is quite easy to post a video. You can capture video by using a digital camera and then simply upload it on a blog post. However, you can incorporate titles, edited clips and other media effects to enhance your message. Video blogging exemplifies the old adage that a picture is worth a thousand words. The only disadvantages or downsides of video blogging are bandwidth requirements and resources or equipment required to capture, store and distribute video. Also, a significant amount of time and money is required to do the video blogging.
