On The Cutting Edge

Americans like to believe that they are on the cutting edge of technology.

Sometime they are.

Sometimes they are not.

When it come to the VJ Revolution, they are pretty much playing catch-up with Europe.

Most European media companies long ago began the shift to video for their broadband sites and most of them have adapted the most cost-effective way of creating that content - and it’s not using full blown beta crews.

If you want to take a look at a great site for video, take a look at The Guardian’s stuff. In particular, let me direct you to Gary Younge’s work.  Younge is a columnist for The Guardian, but is resident in the US. Think Alistair Cooke, and his ‘Letter from America’.

take a look here. (sorry, Guardian videos not embedable)#
