odeio escrever sobre isso, mas vá lá

Categoria blogs, opinião |

Há nesse micro-universo dos blogs umas gentes de comportamentos especialmente engraçados. Engraçados? Mais: excêntricos. Foi somente outro dia que ouvi dizer em probloggers (é isso?), acho que com a Tina, e descobri que o termo designa aqueles que conseguem gerar algum lucro com seus blogs. Daí tantas pessoas se dedicarem a textos do tipo “como ganhar dinheiro com o seu site” etc. Por outro lado há aqueles que adoram uma pose; criam seus blogs, falam de tudo (todo mundo em blog fala de tudo) mas, se perguntados se gostariam de ter seus blogs entre os mais populares, logo respondem com veemente negativa; dizem preferir escrever para um número reduzido de “leitores”, porque a popularidade suja a “imagem” de um sítio elitizado.  

Se a primeira estirpe me aborrece, não o faz tanto quanto a segunda. Os probloggers levam seus blogs a sério, mesmo, realmente são capazes de lucrar com isso, e assumem suas, err, vis intenções. O segundo tipo aborrece mais. Acho muito simplista essa idéia de preferir escrever para quatro, cinco pessoas. Se assim fosse, um blog seria desnecessário, bastando um bloco de notas manuscrito passado às mãos aflitas dos amigos. A esse tipo de autor, procedendo como verídica a afirmação de predileção por parcos leitores, recomendo que não diga isso, não é necessário dizê-lo. Soa falso, soa hipócrita mesmo sendo verdade. Uma alternativa, a melhor delas, é não levar nada disso a sério. 

Tudo isso me faz pensar em criancinhas; as que representam os probloggers a dizer “Eu quero”, e as outras, chorosas no seu canto, a choramingar “eu nem queria mesmo”.

Tem também aqueles que escrevem direitinho, mas acham feias as propagandas. Não lucram com os blogs e ficam felizes quando ganham novos leitores, só por orgulho, mesmo.

Eu acho feias algumas propagandas. Mas na verdade não penso muito no assunto.

Muito bom Ed. Eu espero que meu blog seja bem mais visitado num futuro breve. Muito mais. E se algum dia surgir patrocinador(es, ótimo! Afinal precisamos ser praticos! Bom mesmo será poder escolher que tipo de propagande entra. No mais, a falsa modéstia é no mínimo irritante.

O problema é que se um leitor gostar muito de mim eu passo a considerá-lo um amigo, e eu fico meio sem jeito de cobrar de um amigo…

É meu masoquismo: defendo o capitalismo, mas não nasci para ele.

Fiquei até pensando que essa revolta se inspirou em minhas palavras, mas aí pensei que fosse pretensão demais, depois pensei que não, e fiquei pensando várias coisas confusas e tive que levantar pra tomar um ar.

Esse negócio de ganhar dinheiro com blog eu não sei, me parece que a poluição visual não equivale ao retorno financeiro. Mas o seu adsense aí até que ficou bem resolvido. Outro dia clico nele, hoje fiquei cansado demais.

Imagine, não escrevi pensando nas suas palavras. Foi no geral mesmo. Por exemplo, eu estou bem com os meus dez leitores, mas dizer “eu só quero ter dez leitores” é bobagem, né?

Isso sem dúvidas.

Eu tenho um do blogger e um do Haloscan no meu, embaixo das barra lateral.

E falando em anúncios, god knows I love o 1001 gatos, mas aqueles Google-Ads no meio do post são o fim-da-picada.

Tipo entre o título e o post em si, né? Incomoda bastante.

Control of information is hugely powerful. In the US, the threat is that companies control what I can access for commercial reasons. (In China, control is by the government for political reasons.) There is a very strong short-term incentive for a company to grab control of TV distribution over the Internet even though it is against the long-term interests of the industry.

I was here to complain about something, and after I read the previous comments it seems that I’m not alone. I don’t want to receive emails in Italian. Please give me back my English content. I already restored the website when it tried to set itself to Italian, but I can’t set the emails language. PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP.

I’m pretty sure you know very well that the www is the greatest technological creation in modern history. Although I suppose somebody else would have invented it earlier or later if you hadn’t, I just wanted to say thank you for having done such incredible pioneer work on a sector that has changed the lives of us all.

Because of your work, so many people can work together, so many people have discover each other than you open a new world of communication between people.

You own my respect and gratitude. Thanks to your hard labour and persistance we have a magnificent web and together with other standards an easy to use enviroment. Thank you!

Im looking forwards to web2.0 - i read somewhere (ages ago) that wiki’s were the original concept for websites and that the content supposed to be edited online etc?? - lets hope google and MS dont spoil it for everyone…

hello YouTube Team, I like the different featured videos by countries but I cannot navigate if I switch to Japanese, Polish, etc. I would like to keep English language (or my mother tongue) even if I change the country. Any possibility of this in the future? Thank you.

I thought that the WTO would be a good start for transforming the process of government at least across national borders. I quite like the idea of using the secretariat of the WTO as the centre for a Wikipedia of trade - a sort of open source world government at least for a very specific and complicated issue which needs many brains to provide a solution.

We wanted to clear up a misconception about the nine localized sites we launched on June 19: the content has not been “broken down” by region. All of your videos are available to everyone, no matter which site you set as your default. So even if you choose a particular country as your preference, the content available to you is still the same.

Welcome to the club of blogging folks around the world. I look forward to reading your entries, and I hope that you will remain inspired by interacting with us, through exchanging thoughts about whatever comes to mind, etc.

Thanks for your work! Now let’s see how you’ll interact with all the junk coming from social blogs, social networks, social software and the whole good load from web 2.0 ;) Tough luck on that!

 
2007-10-09 12:35:05

Not about the international sites, but I do wonder exactly how much attention you pay to emails that are suggesting possible featured videos. Especially after seeing a recently featured video that has been uploaded several times by other users over the course of a year or even more.

 
2007-10-09 12:35:07

As with everyone else here, we want, nay, demand more! more of your thoughts, more history and more speed and are you going to allow us to see into the future with you?

Because of your work, I work with former soviet scientists to design and share online training schedules for athletes throughout the world. People are people regardless of where they are located; with dreams and the inner quest for knowledge. 20 years ago this would have been impossible. Even though the geopolitics would have still gone the way they had, the net has allowed us to be more than non combatants..we have become friends.

I love function about videos what are viiewing currently, youtube is improving well, but i have little request: is it possible to make videos opened i new tab, auto-paused? Because its annoying when you want watch many videos, and you have to pause all of them manually to make them load… please!

How hard could it be for someone to start a newtube designed exactly like the youtube we all know and love. Bet it would be more popular than this editortube in less than a year.
