“The Today Show” host Matt Lauer is entering the Vlogosphere November 7! For the past number of years, Matt has been traveling around the world for a segment of the show called “Where in the World is Matt Lauer?” He gives hints about his location, to help the other hosts, and viewers guess where he is. Well, starting this season, the segments will be featured on the internet as well!
“In an Internet first, Matt Lauer will have a daily video blog, available exclusively on Today.MSNBC.com. He will share a behind-the-scenes look at his travels, including details about each stop and a clue about the next day’s location. Lauer will also provide a written blog, a photo slideshow from the trip and travel stories about the different locations.”
Of course, we are all wondering: Will there be an RSS 2.0 feed? Will comments be enabled? Is it just going to be the regular segments re-posted to the web?
It is great that some big names in media are recognizing the imortance/power of video blogs, but my only concern is that this stlye of video blog may not empower beginners the way that other video blogs often do. People may think that in order to have a “good video blog,” you need a film crew or a large budget. Just remember, we are the media, no matter how much money we put into our creations!
