We enjoyed our conversation and worm bin making adventure with Freshtopia's Barb Finnin so much that we've decided to give you another little taste! Barb and Ryanne discuss the radical-ness that is composting and how to avoid bringing non-compostables (darn plastic bags!) into your home.

Our friend Jim Joseph of ihatetodance.com and ihatetodance.blogspot.com invited us down to Culver City in Los Angeles for dinner.

A reply to an email I got from Josh Cohen at Tilzy.tv asking about NaVloPoMo. I just riffed on his questions. Whatever I've missed, or whatever you think about it and about personal videoblogging, reply in the comments or on a video or however you like. - How'd you come up with the idea? And how'd you initially share it with the community? Did it take long to catch on? - About how many vlogs would you say there are involved? (I think there's a list on the Ning site, but was wondering if that was extensive) - Why do you participate? What type of people should participate? Is it for anyone? - What's the best part about it? - How do your videos for NaVloPoMo differ than your regular fare?

A crucial inconsequential moment. The only one I've posted all week. It's been a H.A.R.D. week. Lumiere Rules is a game I've been wanting to play for a few weeks, inspired by Andreas. I put down my Nokia for the first time in months and picked up my old Kodak DX7440 (which, totally coincidentally and appropriately) Andreas recommended to me before I even started Fatgirlinohio, when I was looking for a camera and was admiring the colours on his photos and videos on his blog. I love that camera. I needed it for this because it has a flat bottom, unlike my Nokia. From Andreas's blog, Solitude.dk: "The rules are as follows:60 seconds max.Fixed cameraNo audioNo zoomNo editNo effectsThey mimic the conditions under which the Lumiere brothers made their movies in the late 1800s."Aske Dam, a good friend, told me about these rules last summer when we were attached to the same research project. They mimic the conditions under which the Lumiere brothers made their movies in the late 1800s. All transfer seamlessly to web-video and videoblogs except the last one. On the web we are used to compress our videos because the raw files from our cameras are too big to be practical. But is the compression not an added effect? You can certainly tweak the compression settings to provide results that differ tremendously from the raw camera files.If you make any videos that abide by the Lumiere Rules tag them lumierevideo."More info and Andreas's videos at: http://www.solitude.dk/archives/20070522-2202/Also see great lumieres by Gogen and Bshoot Formats available: MPEG4 Video (.mp4)

Today, I realised that everything i've been looking for is right here in front of me. It's happening right now. It might not be your dream, but it's mine, and I've only put the pieces together after meeting everyone at Pixelodeon and seeing all the curated sessions of films. This is why i've fallen in love with internet video distribution. Funny how it's taken me so long to realise the obvious. I guess i was too busy looking ahead for the one big idea, and not realising that it wasn't a 'show'. As we say in Jedi school: It's not the End, it's the Means Whereby. And as the Dwarf said in Twin Peaks: Let's rock. Formats available: MPEG4 Video (.mp4)

Again - not for the casual viewer :) And completely unedited. Shot as it was, on my phone from the front row. Lots of questions answered - not sure how much you'll be able to hear the questioners - particularly Mike Meiser's three or four questions from the back of the room - but I hope this a useful reference for anyone interested in finding out more about SpinXpress. See the previous video for a great introduction.Answering questions are Dave Toole, CEO; Markus Sandy and Michael Verdi Formats available: MPEG4 Video (.mp4)

Caveat: Not the usual personal nonsense. This is a technical presentation, and I'm posting it because it'll be useful and interesting to a select few. It's unedited, shot on the phone from the front row. It's a great, easy-to-follow introduction to the amazing new collaborative video production tool SpinXpress at http://spinxpress.com/and also their brilliant Get Media tool for finding media online that you can reuse.
