11:46 Rick_Butts : What is blogging?
11:46 DonnaFox : Video scares me
11:46 klessblog : What is Twitter?
11:46 Chris_Flores : so am i
11:46 Chris_Flores : afraid to video
11:46 Rick_Butts : The key to video is breathing
11:46 klessblog : Kidding.. of course…
11:46 Rick_Butts : Donna – you should have a couple of Vodka’s first
11:47 Rick_Butts : and let’r fly
11:47 klessblog : rick – I thought it was lighting
11:47 Rick_Butts : LOL – well depending on what you are lighting!
11:47 DonnaFox : Rick, yeah, that’s the secret. A few martinis and I won’t care what I look like!
11:47 Rick_Butts : Actually – the key to video is good audio
11:47 Rick_Butts : people will forgive bad video –
11:47 Chris_Flores : one of my big BUTTS is not enough content. dead air
11:47 klessblog : Too true Rick
11:47 DonnaFox : that’s rather profound Rick
11:48 Rick_Butts : but the audio is the most important cause a lot ofpeople go open another window and just listen
11:48 Rick_Butts : especially if it’s atalking head
11:48 klessblog : Audio is deifinitely key.. wht is that?
11:48 klessblog : wht = why
11:48 Rick_Butts : For Sherman – he’s got the deep bass voiice – he’s the Asian/Canadian Barry White
11:49 DonnaFox : I know, Rick, it’s cool. First time I heard Sherman’s voice I about fell outta my chair
11:49 Rick_Butts : ooooooooooooo baby
11:50 DonnaFox : I love it, he’s multitasking while on camera
11:50 Rick_Butts : yes, but is he wearing pants?
11:50 Chris_Flores : rick. any advice on my big butt for not doing audio?
11:50 Chris_Flores : video
11:50 Chris_Flores : both
11:50 Chris_Flores : ha
11:50 Rick_Butts : ask a specific question Chris
11:50 Rick_Butts : Audio video is not for everyone
11:50 Rick_Butts : GOOD!
11:51 DonnaFox : Chris, it’s not that you don’t have enough content, it’s that you haven’t prepared your content in memorized "white papers"
11:51 Chris_Flores : i said earlier not enough content dead air
11:51 Chris_Flores : yea thats true
11:51 Rick_Butts : If you don’t like doing it – or you are ugly – hire someone to read your content
11:51 Rick_Butts : http://rocketboom.com
11:51 Rick_Butts : 1 million post rolls views per week because they use a cute british gal to anchor
11:51 klessblog : Half hour plus?
11:51 Rick_Butts : The 45 Minute Widget
11:51 Chris_Flores : true true donna, thanks
11:52 DulcitaLove : How about selecting which video cam?
11:52 DonnaFox : and the key, Chris, to enough content is to have enough peeps in the chat writing things to stimulate your thought process
11:52 DonnaFox : (or on the phone)
11:52 Rick_Butts : I put Ed Dale’s video reply to my post on my blog at http://rickbutts.com/245/ed-dale-video-on-product-lanches/
11:53 Rick_Butts : FYI _ links in this chat open in new tab – so you don’t have to lost the show to surf
11:53 Rick_Butts : on Firefox at least
11:53 Chris_Flores : yea i mean i did classroom lectures for high school students but video for business catches me off guard. the tips do help though 11:53 Rick_Butts : Well Chris – depending on your topic – and use for the video 11:54 Rick_Butts : you could start with 30 second tips
11:54 Rick_Butts : or 1 minute etc
11:54 Rick_Butts : just get it said and get out
11:54 Rick_Butts : for SEO – Google can’t tell what your video is about it’s the keywords in your listing
11:54 Chris_Flores : yea. that works too. baby steps
11:54 Rick_Butts : Baby Steps Bob
11:54 Chris_Flores : ha. what about Bob?
11:54 Rick_Butts : Hey Sherman – this is like the Chris Pirillo show!
