Video blogs are just starting to become popular. Will video someday
reach the point where it is seen on every webpage? Brad Inman, the founder
and publisher of
Inman News, thinks so and recently said so at a Real Estate Connect conference
according to E-Media Tidbits.
"Let me just explain it this way: Every webpage will become a
television station," he said. "Think of the webpage as a video
magazine. ... In a few years, if people open the page and see
words and data, they might change the channel on you."
Inman's company has also created
InmanStories.com, which creates videos that could be used
in real estate to sell luxury homes. Inman also has a blog
here.
While it seems highly likely that the Internet will be
full of more and more video as time passes it also seems highly
unlikely that text and data will vanish. Newspapers were still
read after television was commonplace. And in many cases information
can be absorbed more easily and quickly when it takes the form of
the written (or digital) word.
