289295561_f6263769ee_o.jpgMichael Cohn has a very interesting writeup at Red Herring about my favorite video service, Blip.tv and how they’re at the epicenter of media delivery evolution, with comments from sweet Dina Kaplan in Blip.tv Brings Vlogs to Masses. Snip:

“But another Democratic candidate who threw his hat in the ring a few weeks earlier, Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack, has set up a video blog of his own on Blip.tv. Another candidate, John Edwards, was one of the first people to appear on Blip.tv.

Vlogs are a step forward from the blogs popularized by Howard Dean’s bid for the Presidency in 2004.

‘Video blogging will have a much bigger impact on the general elections of 2008, more so than the blogging in the last elections,’ predicted Ms. Kaplan in an interview Thursday.

She comes from a political background herself, having worked for Bill Clinton’s presidential campaign and later at the White House. She moved from politics to media, with stints at both NBC and MTV before founding New York-based Blip.tv in April 2005.” Link.
