When YouTube first started, all of 4 years ago, the quality of the video was bad, the audience wasn’t so huge and messages about changing the world just seemed totally out of place amid the poor amateur video that was appearing on the site. So if you don’t have YouTube videos for your key search terms you are missing out.

At NTC, I organized a panel and drop-in clinic called 'NTC Video GeekOut" featuring Jonny Goldstein and Andy Carvin. I also video blogged the session and caught up with a participant for a quick interview about their impressions. Next time, I think I might keep the video really short so it doesn't take so much time to render.

Editing The best pieces I read so far about video editing that gets a novice up and started quickly is in the book Secrets of Videoblogging by Michael Verdi and Ryanne Hodson. I'm stuck for now on a Windows XP platform (can't afford to invest in Mac but will eventually), so the free video editing program is MovieMaker.
