LiveVideo Die-Hards...

I go back and forth, honestly, about whether I'm hurting LV's chances to thrive by having an ARK that displaces some of the creative energy away from there.

However, I don't see people closing up shop on LV just because the ARK is here (maybe two or three, for personal reasons) but as I see it, most of us ARKians have one whole foot in LV and the other roams about trying to get some footing. Many of us have even become more active on YouTube as it is- ironically, the only sure thing.… Continue

Two Years Vloggin'- Here's Why

TOP TEN REASONS I STILL VLOG:

10. It's a worthwhile hobby (creative, expressive, thought-provoking, a vehicle for putting your thoughts together, etc.)

9. People go, but new people come (if you extend yourself, you widen that circle of positive people and the assholes increasingly become irrelevant)

8. It broadens your paradigm (if you open yourself up to new perspectives- not just stick with your own)

7. It creates an ongoing record of who you were-… Continue

ARK member ONE HUNDRED, and The No-Longer-Temporary-ness of This Place

Steve is member #100.

So here's the deal...gonna open this place up for anyone who wants to put their bags down. That basically means I take back what I said about it being temporary. Because even if LV does come back (by some slim chance),… Continue

The Future of LiveVideo :o(

Hey you guys...I hate to say this, but according to someone in contact with LV staff, it appears that MOTC was right, they're switching data over to other servers, but not to upgrade or maintain...they're doing it to consolidate their dwindling resources.

The person I spoke to projects that LV has a couple of more months left in it and that'll be it.

As dismal as that sounds, it's still a projection made by someone inside the business and he could still be wrong. I just… Continue
