The Blog of Frank Spohr

My friend Bryan Kress asked me to help him shoot a video for a business conference he’s going to in Chicago. It started off as nothing too serious because it was just supposed to be 30 seconds of him talking about himself. Well, we decided we should take out a few hours on a Sunday afternoon and do it right. Bryan then found out that the video will actually be judged against the other particpants’ videos at the conference. So, far we’ve been getting good reviews from everyone who has watched it. Hopefully we’ll do well at the conference.

Voting will take place at http://getmymessage.blogspot.com. If you like the commercial, a click from you wouldn’t hurt.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video. Be sure to check out Bryan’s Business on the Mound too.

Today, I found that the popular image sharing web site, Flickr, has introduced video hosting.  The flavor of video over there is a little different than what you get at other video sites like YouTube or Vimeo.  Accounts are limited to only 90 second clips.  I believe they are doing this to keep the videos more focused on experiences you capture during day-to-day life similar to the photos a person would be uploading to the web site.

Flickr has a blog post explaining the new video features.  Check it out.
