Videoblogging in Boston

Sam Allis writes in today's Boston Globe, Virtual neighbors, about his thoughts on vlogs and vloggers after attending a meeting with Boston area video bloggers:

The flavor of last week was Amy Carpenter, a 32-year-old artist who discovered the pursuit a year ago and is now a true believer.

For years, she viewed a computer the way she did a stove. Then she began to experiment with an inexpensive Sony video camera. Her creative juices started flowing and she became a vlogging warrior.

I'm sure we'll palaver about the article at this morning's meeting.

"Up close, personal, neighborhood, passion, creative, viral plague of joy, eye-openers, fabulous, performance" or "Soporific primitive narcisstic dreck"?
