Video Blogs Coming Soon to Wpdesigner
- Filed under: Wpdesigner.com
Video blogging is much harder than I expected. For starter, it’s awkward to talk to the camcorder, but I’ll get used to it and will roll out the first official video blog soon.
Prior to the test video above, I was waiting for the camera delivery for about a week. If I had hair, I would’ve tried to pull it out. The waiting was just awful. On the arrival date (yesterday), the mail-woman didn’t come around at the usual time so I was freaking out. Luckily, the DHL delivery guy came around 3:00 pm to deliver it.
This morning, I went to Circuit City to buy the tripod so now I’m all set. All together, this new video-blogging feature that I’m adding to Wpdesigner has been frustrating and pretty expensive, but I can’t wait to have some fun with it!
If you have ideas, video blogging suggestions, requests, and etcetera, please post them in the comments. Thank you.
Wow new thing in Wpdesigner! Something to look forward with. Your idea is just awesome! What kind of camera did you buy?
What to video blog? hmmm… i’m still thinking about it…
Hey Small Potato! How are you?
The video and sound quality are great. This is an awesome feature that you’ll be adding to Wpdesigner and I can’t wait to watch the first official video blog.
I don’t have any ideas or suggestions, but I’m certain that you’ll come up with something great. (:
Donalyza – I bought the Panasonic HDD S-18
Artur – Thanks Artur. I’m fine
You look very different without that potato in your mouth.
It is a potato right?
You’re handsome & cute lol & funny (in the first part)
Your speaking is quite fast for me (in some part I must listen twice)
no, it’s not too fast
It’s time to improve my listening skill
Looking forward to the next episode.
Wow this should be really fun! I’m pretty impressed that you’ve taken WPDesigner this far. Not too many bloggers have got the guts to do a video blog!
I know i’ll enjoy these! And the rest of us Small Potatos better enjoy them too!

Hey! Small Potato looks cuter in the real life!
It would be interesting to see some blog reviews done as a screen cast? is this something you have thought about?
I’ve done a few videos in the past, and you’re right, it takes a bit of getting used to. I suppose some people may be comfortable talking to themselves
How do you add pics to the comments?
<- like here
btw, cool site, nice tuts, good luck
on the million dollar goal………….
Although it will take more time, use a video editing program to add titles, urls, etc., and to edit out the parts where you turn the camera off or fumble for words.
It’s really great to see your face and hear your voice! I’m glad to see you doing video.
Haha that was pretty funny. It works really good though. Can’t wait to see the other ones.
I am new here and just clicked on your site.
It is pretty cool and you are taking charge and learning ways to work your blog. The video is awesome
and this is what everyone is doing these days,
oh,This lovely Small Potato!
@ armen: you should uplaod your image in gravatar.com
@ SP: that’s a great a video cam!
Well it is not for a dialup connection.
On another note, your designs for WP are great!
Thanks.
adii.co.za also had video blogs at a time, but most people stop doing it because it takes too much time to do. Also, it’s not searchable by Google
Unless you have the transcript written out!
Hi SP, nice to see u live. Feels like we’re all getting to know you alot better as time passes. Great that you’re coming at us in person and that we can get a better idea of the personality behind the SP. I reckon in a few years time, if you keep this up you’re gonna be extremely famous and making alot more noise. Great To watch you grow like this. Do a dance for us next time!!
hey sm (no allusion, btw)!
i like your idea. i do subscribe to a couple of video blogs and I really like having nice background, some sort of background music and jingles. maybe you find something that is suitable, but do not make it to obvious that there is some sort of music that accompanies your statements.
you could pick up some designs and review them. that would be nice.
or you could represent some webtips.
you ll find something. i am sure!

@Hyder – That was an orange.
@Nice – I’ll slow down next time.
@Michael and Fath – Thanks
@Graeme Mac – Sure, I’ll do some blog reviews via video blogs.
@Armen – Looking into the camera and not staring at myself in the LCD was the most difficult part.
@Anon Khan – I use the MyAvatars plugin to add pics to comments.
@Michael Martine – For sure I’m going to edit the next video.
@Jenny – I’ll post the next video soon.
@Tally and PARANDROID – Thanks
@Larry – Yup, 56kers beware!
@David – I agree. It is very time consuming, but video blogs are add-ons, not the main feature of Wpdesigner so I think I can handle it for now.
@NomadNur – Maybe I can get my girlfriend to do a dance for the next video’s intro. Me? I can’t dance at all
.
@Phil – Thanks for the tip. I’ll look for some background music for the next vid.
Very nice SP, video posts will be a great addition to your blog!
Also interesting to see the related videos on youtube that comes up after your video finishes, check out the small potato gun for example
