Been down to The Shag lately? The place was hoppin' this weekend...both days I was down there!
Don't forget, you can and should view this in 720p!
I know...I'm skipping a day here and there. I hope the new video posts are kinda making up for it.
They do require a bit more time and effort to produce and upload. With this particular effort I had to
contend with a customer snatching chairs and a table right out of my shot! Boo Hoo...whoa is me.
Anyway, hope you all had a more relaxing weekend than Mr. M.!
I like the photo posts better, the videos sound like commercials.
ReplyDeleteI kind of agree with Mike above...I like the photo posts better, too (sorry!) Although, if you're having fun and learning something doing the videos, that's what counts, eh?
ReplyDeleteHi Mike and Pat.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feedback. Let me ask you this, is it the videos in general (you'd rather see stills and read text) or is there something I can work on to make the videos more enjoyable? I promise that they will evolve...just take a minute and look at any of my first blog posts!
I'd rather read the posts look at the photos. Like someone else mentioned, I like looking into the photos, taking my time.
DeleteI still like the video (maybe slow the panning a bit). If you want stills just hit “pause”. Your narration is good too MMT. -midmichigan
ReplyDeleteHi midmichigan.
DeleteThanks for the feedback and the encouragement. I'll keep the panning speed in mind.
Been following your blog now for awhile and really enjoy it. However, I think I tend to like the photos and text better than the videos. You have such a witty writing style and I have picked up lots of great information through your posts. I don't hate the videos just don't think I would want them to replace your writing and pictures. BTW nothing wrong with a bit of self promotion after all that is sort of the point at least once in awhile. If you don't sell you can't pick up new stuff to talk to us about!
ReplyDeleteHi Teresa Jesse.
DeleteThank you so much for the great comment! I may end up doing a combination of text / photos and video in one post in the future. Nobody gets left out then!
Hey MrMod, I've read your blog for a long time and really love it. I hate the videos, however. First, they take longer to load. Second, I often read the blog at work and video and audio are too noticeable. Third, I like to be able to linger on an item or zoom in. I can't do that with a video. Thanks for asking us!
ReplyDeleteHi Anony.
DeleteAh Ha! Work! Forgot all about that. Damn...foiled. I promise I'll keep putting together posts that you can surreptitiously peruse when the boss ain't looking!
