…because you have more patience than a third grade special education teacher.

My (first unsuccessful) foray into the world of vlogging

No, you will not find a link to a YouTube video here (though you can see the two videos I do have up by clicking the yellow box to the right of this post). You will not find a video log entry because, well, because they take an incredible amount of patience and, moreso ability, a skill that is absent in my current state of Mac literacy (or lack thereof).

This becomes all the more apparent when I look at a few posts from my most recent Twitter friends (I feel weird saying that): @iJustine and @coollike. They are both popular vloggers on YouTube and other sites, and have both Tweeted in the past day about editing and posting videos. Charlie (coollike) seems to have spent 2 hours trying to post a video only to end unsuccessfully and leave it for today, and Justine spent 10 hours shooting and editing, until 3 in the morning! Do that four times a week and you’ve got a full time job, if you’re lucky enough to work just 40 hours a week. Side note: France, I’m jealous.

Now, I have to say Charlie’s was worth it, because he painted himself purple.

You know what they say if you don’t succeed

I think they say you’re supposed to try again. So I will! I’ve never vlogged before, so don’t expect it to be a gold mine, featured video. But give me some time.
