As presented at Blogs & Social Media Forum 2006; the talk is about 20 minutes long, a personal retrospective on my discovery of blogging and my subsequent experience of using blogging to enhance my work-life.
My thanks to Lorna Candy of VNU Exhibitions for supply of the audio.
Thanks Alec for posting that. I have just really enjoyed watching your talk. As ever, I learn much from you.

aw, thanks! 🙂
Thoroughly enjoyed that :-).
Regarding the “text blogs vs podcasts vs vlogs” thing, though, I wonder if it’s a generational thing. “When we were lads”, I suspect media studies courses / school lessons were thin on the ground, if not nonexistent – certainly it wasn’t a subject that was taught in South Cheshire, and I distinctly remember my school getting its first video camera when I was 15.
Also, during the more formative years of my youth, home video cameras were shoulder-luggable excruciatingly expensive behemoths that maybe a few people in the average town had.
“Kids these days” are growing up in front of lenses which capture more than still images, these days. Maybe the whole podcast / vlog thing will come more naturally to them than it does to us…
