“Videoblogging is about to really take off.”
Sometimes it’s hard to see the Internet for all the discussion of video these days
. My head is so buried in Media 2.0 topics that I wonder if I’m getting a distorted view. So the following statement might seem a little biased/stupid/outdated/obvious.
2007 is the year of online video and audio. As Scoble says, “Videoblogging is about to really take off.”
Everyone tell me when they get sick of me saying stuff like this
.
One such area that demonstrates the potential, as used by Scoble to make the point, is a deal signed by Ask A Ninja and Federated Media.
Heather Green spoke with the creators, and they stated it “guarantees them a contract for sales in the low seven figures this year.” It essentially sounds like FM will sell advertising on Ask A Ninja, and give the creators the majority of the revenue, with a guaranteed minimum.
If you haven’t watched any Ask A Ninja, have a look, it’s damn funny. I’ve been a fan for about a year.
