Is you tube the next blogging platform?

Is you tube taking over as a blogging space?
I wonder this, because in past few months I am really enjoying a lot of time on you tube.

And I found that, a lot of experiences that you could write here, or rant about stuff here on our blogs, you can do it on you tube, with more fun and more spice.

People are using their handy cam and video cam and web cams to record while they rant off stuff. Also, at many a times the personal moments, that you could later blog about, can now be video graphed and immediately pulled up on you tube.

So actually, the same thing we do on blogging, we can do now on you tube and more. For, while you are speaking or narrating, you can add up a lot more than you are writing.

But their is a lot of featured or dramatized ranting and story telling too. Balaji telefilms recently launched bol niti bol, a series of videos where a young girl talks about her life.
There are too many English versions of such concepts too. Like lonely girl 15.
One that I really like is the great actor, Shammi Kapoor's channel. Here, in a web series termed Shammi Kapoor Unplugged, the veteran actor, talks about his experiences in a story telling narration. Something akin to may be what we would write on our blogs.

So is you tube all set to change, we the bloggers' lives? I think it shall take some more time, but it will happen one day soon.
Not all of us, are still very comfortable speaking and recording over our webcams. But the coming generation of bloggers shall definitely follow that. That is my view.
What do you think about it? Do pen down your thoughts in the comments section.
Thank you :)

I definitely think Vlogs (VideoLogs) are here to stay. Gary V in his book Crush It rose to acclaim via his Vlog. It's very similar to our sense of feeling like we know t.v. & movie personalities because we see them. We gauge their demeanor, inflections, facial expressions,etc. I have several you tube channels. You can check me out at http://www.youtube.com/coachjacquidobens.com where I have several motivational movies. I definitely think that the more mediums we communicate in the better. Type, audio (podcast) & Vlog. It reaches various preferred communication styles. I never thought of it this clearly before it actually motivates me to do all three more. Thank you for that!

Genocide in Gaza: How colonialism has alienated you from your own humanity

The discomfort you feel speaking up about genocide in Palestine: How colonialism has alienated us from humanity Why does speaking about Gaza feel so unsettling? There is an undeniable discomfort that arises when we speak of genocide in Gaza, a conflict rooted not only in geopolitics but also in a long history of colonialism. That discomfort? It is a manifestation of how deeply colonialism has alienated us from our own humanity. It has made us bystanders, distant observers, to a grotesque tragedy that demands our empathy and action. Every day, the children of Gaza are bombarded by forces much larger than themselves—forces of colonial interests, global profits, and silent complicity. How many of us have spoken up about the atrocities in Gaza? How many of us have chosen silence because the violence feels too far away, too complex, or too heavy to carry? That silence—our silence—perpetuates a chasm in our spirit, a gap that must be bridged if we are to mend not just Palestine, but the fray

Should parenting be a certainty? A hard look at who should be raising kids

“Sometimes I think the answer lies in wondering if the lives we are creating for others are better than the ones we inherited ourselves.” I am convinced that many people who are parents should not be. It is a bold statement, but when you strip away the romanticised lens through which we have been conditioned to view parenthood, it becomes harder to ignore the underlying truth: parenting is not something to be taken lightly. Nor is it a choice that should be made unless you are 100% certain —mentally, emotionally, and financially ready for it.  Is parenting more than just a biological destiny? The moment you announce that you are pregnant, society collectively leans in, nods approvingly, and asks about baby showers and cribs. The truth? Being responsible for an entire human being is incredibly tough—life-altering, in fact. Yet, people still push forward with the idea that it’s something “ you just do, ” that it will all work out because, well, doesn’t it always? In reality, parenting is
