On Friday, I co-presented the video blogging presentation at the Cambodian Bloggers Summit with Virak , Cambodia's first Cambodian video blogger (I think). I did a lot of preparation for this workshop to document as much of the how-tos and resources because I only had 30 minutes to present. The curriculum is here.
