I was rummaging through archived files last night, putting the finishing touches on my online museum of old site designs when I ran across a video file in a version of my site from the year 2000 that is most definitely a video blog (vlog) post.
I’ve talked about the fact that I was a “vlogger” years before the practice was popular, but I finally found proof of it. I also love the subject matter… smells transmitted over the Internet. I also love that the company mentioned in the video still has a presence and still believes they’ll be pumping scents down the pipe in the near future.
Anyway, check out the video and you tell me… first vlogger or not?
UPDATE: I found an even older video blog post than the one below. Well, one day older, anyway.
I’m at home sick today, so I’ve been taking the opportunity to catch up on weeks’ worth of shows on the DVR. During the Ashton Kutcher episode of Saturday Night Live a few weeks ago, they had a series of short bits on entitled “Death By Chocolate.”
A long time staple at kitschy chain restaurants everywhere, the death by chocolate dessert comes in many forms, but it’s always super chocolately and rich. It’s this simple concept that we all get that makes this play on words incredibly funny… not to mention a manifestation of many of our mental images of the name. Enjoy.
