Looking over the course site in Moodle I noticed we were being asked to do a Me2U blog posting and introduce ourselves to our classmates. I decided to do a video posting (I think they call it a vlog) instead.
I used the Flip Ultra video camera I got for Christmas to record the videos. I broke it up into several videos to make it less demanding on resources for people viewing it and I decided to try out Viddler (a web 2.0 video upload site) as a way to embed the video into a blog posting.
I am trying this out as well so I am expecting that not everything will not work perfectly. I am going to have to figure out the optimal way to do this. I'd appreciate any comments and adviceyou may wish to pass along.
