So, what can a video blog do or rather, what can I do with a video blog that I cannot do with other mediums? It attracts me because of this unique combination of traits in a visual medium. It is irrelevant to me if its content is edited or `real' or `art'. What is most interesting to me is that it provides a way to tell a story that could eliminate worn-out narrative forms without relying on `postmodern' or ironic or self-aware tricks, most of which are rapidly becoming traps.

blogging shares many common traits with letter writing / diary keeping – it is periodic, its is a dialog and unlike say, a phone conversation, it is author-centric(very much 1st person in its content) and it is a cumulative form of story telling.
