The link directed you to CBS sponsored content. Mainly promos and shows. No Vlog stuff there. I think MTV news ‘dispatches’ are not a true vlog either. More of a show about Vlogs, delivered in Vlog style. I haven’t seen that yet. I suspect we’ll see more of this stuff down the road from other companies soon.

That comment was from Paul, so you’re going to have to take it up with him. :)

I believe in the case you cited (CBS), they actually have some revenue payment deal sorted with YouTube/Google, so it is not merely to increase traffic.

Of course in the independent model we are approaching with our vlogs that is not the case (yet).

Without an RSS 2.0 feed with enclosure tags, does this qualify as a vlog?

Or is this just an MTV-sponsored informal episodic webcam series?

There still isn’t a consensus on how we define a “vlog.”

Wikipedia is vague about the necessity of web syndication to qualify…
