What is Blog and What is Vlog?

[Greatworld]

Just I want to know about Vlog?

A Vlog is a video log. Instead of reading content on a screen and watch and listen to it.

precisely. its another form of media aside from weblog and photoblog. another thing, Google runs its own video blog as well

Vlog seems to be the next popular thing right now. I see alot of people making them.

Many are also combining traditional blogging with video blogging as well. Personally, I'm not a big fan of video blogging to be honest. I like to consume information at my own pace, and the video format makes it much harder than text because it requires my undivided attention.

But of course, each to his own

Vlog is a specialised blog in my opinion. Special bcos, it is a blog but specially made to communicate through videos.

I wouldn't say it was specialized; just a different medium.

@Lars - I am very similar to you. When I pull up a vlog, i will typically just let it play in the background while I do my other things. It is very rare that I would just sit there and watch.

I wonder what you would describe my b/vlog as? Is it a blog or a vlog because I include videos then write about them.
