We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

Google Trying Out Video Blogging
New Service Allows Video Uploads

Advancing its e-mail services, Google co-founder, Larry Page, said the company is trying a new complimentary service, video blogging. With this service people will be able to submit video clips and broadcast them like ordinary e-mail attachments. Page said Google would be archiving people's video clips, starting in the next few days.

The move adds to a video search service that was debuted as a beta tester in January. In 2003 Google bought popular blog site, Blogger.com, signaling its general interest in blogging. Video blogging, vlogging, is still new but is expected to take off as Web space becomes cheaper, or even free and digital recording becomes easier and more universally accessible.

"In the next few days, we're actually going to start taking video submissions from people, and we're not quite sure what we're going to get, but we decided we'd try this experiment," Page said.

Page addressed a concern that has been voice regarding the kind of content people will be free to upload. He was open minded about the issue, saying, "[There are] many issues, but we have found in experimenting not to try to have too many barriers. It's hard to predict what will happen, but we have done this 10 times and we figure out ways to make it work."
