Bloggingheads : 2 ways-blogging?
I found this link the other day by the guys who did snipshot.
Bloggingheads.tv
The concept : 2 blogggers record their internet conversations on Video. the Video is Split in two frames and you can just listen and watch the dialog.
Subjects are mostly American politics but some dialogs can be interesting, like the Science Saturday for example.
I recommend it for people who want to practice advanced English listening. Personally, I’d love a Japanese version.
I also like the ability to see bloggers in their real life environment. Most have a bookshelf in the background and wear nice shirts. Definitely not the same crowd as the average myspace blogger or the freaks who post video responses on Youtube.
You can also find interesting to see faces expressions caused by “active listening”.
I may be in a misanthropic mood but I prefer reading blogs rather than seeing their authors. You can’t just scan through a video like for a text. You have to wait 3 minutes to know if it was worth. On the internet, time rules.
A good and new idea anyhow.
