RE: Giving YouTubers A Home On Steemit [and the other way around]
The leap from blogs to vlogs to blogs is an interesting thing. Sometimes things cannot always be conveyed in text and not always in video either. Bridging the 2 together and encompassing the 2D, 3D and beyond is what Steemit is all about. Great post @surfermarly :)
Thank you @sandstorm! I think it's a pretty nice combination. Editing video material requires a lot more work than writing a blog post. However, I think it's worth trying both since you can reach a completely different audience. Plus: there are things that are even more attractive when shown through moving images. Imagine a video of a person reading a poem compared to a written poem - two different stories even though the lyrics might be the very same...;)
Exactly @surfermarly, the two different mediums work well alone, but have that extra "synergistic" push when put together. Things such as your surfing and snorkeling just cannot be portrayed as well in just a written blog post, pictures make it pop, yes, but add in some of your video clips and the post jumps right off of the computer screen and we are hanging out live with Marly and not just reading her thoughts on a screen :)
