MILESTONES IN VIDEOBLOGGING #2
author: CHRIS WEAGEL – duration: 02:37
Important thoughts published on September 28th, 2004 by our favorite Prof. Chris Weagel on the occasion of his 23rd birthday. About memories & reality and the strange fact that, at least for our generation and generations to come, the only remaining reality left of ones life is the reality caught on images and footage of oneself. And the strange fact that as a filmmaker you are able to create your own reality.
For one reason or another this video has exactly the same length as THE HOUSE OF VLOG – WITH THE VLOGFATHER. There must be something… Mail us your Milestones @ submissions[at]unitedvloggers[dot]com

author: CLARK SATURN – ZIP ZAP ZOP – duration: 02:37
Ok, we’re back and here to stay. And as you can see we are reinforced with fresh troops. Welcome Paul Alexander & Bicyclemark! To celebrate that and more we hereby start our new series: MILESTONES IN VIDEOBLOGGING. From now on, every week, we’ll be posting a video that, as the title suggests, is according to one of you a landmark in videoblogging. The one video that made the difference to you, that inspired the hell out of you or just made you laugh sillily.
You are kindly invited to send us a link, if possible a permalink to the original file, and scribble a few lines why you’ve chosen that particular post. Like the FIRST TEST Jay Dedman did in NYC with Peter van Dijck for instance. Or Michael Verdi NAKED. Or Josh Leo’s FIRST RANT. We would really appreciate if you would send us your loved ones to:

authors: ZDOB SI ZDUB – duration: 04:07
An Editor’s pick by our new corespondent Paul Alexander, who is always on the hunt for obscure user generated music videos:
“Today no vlog on petty individualistic lives, but a clip on the merits of collectivism. Soviet life was not all misery, darkness and terror. Communism also had its share of entertainment. And rightly so: why shouldn’t toiling masses dance and listen to music? Since all Soviet workers in a recent past were peasants dancing folk dances in the woods, singing harvest songs in the fields, much of popular culture is drenched in folklore. A lot of footage from Soviet times is now available on the Internet and we capitalists are able to see for ourselves that life in the USSR could be very entertaining indeed!
We bring you a clip of the etno hardcore band Zdob si Zdub from the former Soviet state Moldova, poorest of all European countries. It is an enlightening parody on Soviet popular culture, with elements of collective farming, model factories and un-hip celebrities with heavy-rimmed glasses.”

A Revlog by our beloved CITIZEN REPORTER BICYCLEMARK (Mark Foncesca Rendeiro):
“How often, anywhere in the world, do you see protesters standing outside the home of an elected official? Take it one step further: how often do you see an elected leader (in this case SENATOR NORM COLEMAN) of one of the highest offices in the country, standing in front of his house openly having an unscripted debate with protesters who disagree with him in front of his house? Now add the video aspect; record, post, and let everyone on the internet see the result of this exchange.
That is basically what you get with this entry on Minnesota Stories via a site called The Uptake. A civic moment that might look very web 2.0 but is actually one of the oldest democratic traditions of all time.”
