Have you seen Mindcaster Marc’s trip down memory lane on his blog just before departure to Budapest?
I checked the weather forecast for Budapest this weekend, and it’s looking Good! It will be sunny on both Saturday and Sunday, although it will be a bit chilly - 14ish degrees celsius / 50s fahrenheit - on Saturday.
The sun will help, but we surely recommend you to bring warm clothes in case you are used to warmer climate.
I for sure know I will bring whatever I can - and I am Norwegian!
I will leave to Georgia in two weeks in order to take some videos from the upcoming parliamentary elections there to put online as well as hold a seminar on the use of videoblogging in organizational work related to minorities groups.
At the seminar there will be participants from a range of eastern European countries, and I hope that we can get some of them not only interested in videoblogging, but coming to Budapest in october for VlogEueope 2008.
More information about my trip to Georgia is on my blog.
One of the problems of the European vlogosphere as opposed to for instance the U.S. region is how diverse our languages are. This is of course also a strength, but in terms of finding interesting new videoblogs from across the continent, this makes for quite the challenge.
How do you find European videoblogs from a country different from your own? For me, it is quite easy to find Norwegian videoblogs on for instance snutter.no which is a rather large Norwegian vlog-site with thousands of users. But if I am looking for Finnish content, or Hungarian, or Italian, it becomes much more difficult, mostly because of the language border.
Of course, you could search for Finnish content on Youtube, Dailymotion or other sites, but how do you find those local national portals? Anyone have suggestions for finding localized content from a language area different from your own?
I hope you had a good Christmas, a Great New Year celebration, and have managed to cool down from all the celebration in January.
There’s many more details to handle, and Jeffrey Taylor and I are compiling all of your feedback. We know a lot of you have tight schedules and need a time and place far in advance, so here’s what we’re suggesting so far for VlogEurope 2008:
1. Place: Budapest, Hungary Suggested by Loiez, Budapest fulfills our often stated intention to move things east. Budapest is cheap to get to, cheap to be in and we hear of many good times there.
2. Date: October 18th and 19th, Saturday and Sunday, with hopes that as many people as possible can be in Budapest Friday night. October is in the climate-friendly autumn, squarely situated between the summer and christmas’y travel plans that you might have and is a direct answer to the feedback we requested concerning dates.
Be sure to join the Vlog Europe Yahoo Group, leave comments on this blog entry, or e-mail me or Jeffrey Taylor personally if you have questions or comments
We’ll be coming out with further details on what we ourselves envision the event to look like within the next couple of weeks.
Be sure to get the word out to anyone and everyone who would be interested in coming to the event!
