Video citation and blogging frustration. ... (Oct 21 2003 22:58 GMT) - Video citation and blogging frustration. A few months ago, I wrote about the tragic inaccessibility of audio and video content on the web. Today, while trying to summarize one of the key insights that came out of the BloggerCon conference I attended this past weekend, I was again reminded of this problem. The issue I want to highlight is the gap between what technically proficient users of the blogging medium (or indeed any kind of web authoring) can achieve, and what average users can achieve. Ironically the best way for me to make that point -- by citing portions of the webcast -- is yet another illustration of the problem. |
