It is time to dive into video. I have always wanted to do it and am finally at a place where I can. Therefore, there are a few things that I have done.
These videos:
- Are part of a new { #aft } series – “A Few Thoughts”. I gave it the #aft hashtag for Twitter use.
- Are short and sweet – about 2 minutes in length – easy to digest.
- Have one quick topic. Feel free to suggest topics.
- Are not as frequent as every day, but not as seldom as once a week, either (There – I have committed myself).
- Just to change things up, I have added a picture at the beginning. This first one I took at the Las Vegas airport. It says “Keep off red line.” But I read it as “Keep Red off line.” So I was trying to figure out why they wanted Red not to use the internet…? So to change things up, there will be a different pict there every video. What does it have to do with the video? Nothing. I know that isn’t the best of learning theory practice, but oh well. I had to add something on there besides my mug.
- Are recorded in my office at home – at least most of them will be. If you hear piano in the background, just ignore it.
- Are my first, and I am sure not my last, format of video. As with everything else I have no doubt it will evolve.
- Will help me with my ‘public’ speaking. I do about one conference session or keynote or webinar or… a month. As always, I am trying to improve. Being in front of a camera is different than being in front of real people, but similar enough.

(BTW – my Grandmother has always apologized for giving me uneven shoulders. I never saw it until now. Hmmmm. I wonder if I stand crooked as well.)
