DC video blogs

DC Blogs note to readers
There’s a relatively new service, YouTube that allows you to upload video from a digital camera and stream on demand. (Most digital cameras
have some video capability). It’s very useful, Flickr-like and free. It was difficult finding bloggers in the DC area who are making use of it. Here’s an example of its potential by an Malaysian Web site that embedded a YouTube video feed on its blog, Minishorts. There may be other services similar to YouTube, and if you know of one please let other readers know in the comments section. Considering the low cost and ubiquity of digital cameras, video blogging may soon be commonplace. Click on the screenshot to view my short sample on how this works. (If you post a video on your blog, please send a note)Some other examples:

DC’s Red bus bust
Unrequited Narcissism
DC’s new bus, the Downtown Circulator (see this DCist report) may have issues. This writer discovers that these red buses are going to make some people red.
…..DC has found a way to make these seemingly innocuousbuses a terrible, terrible idea. Namely: dedicated bus lanes on 7th and 9th streets. The crews are out there right now, measuring things, looking confused and blocking traffic in surprisingly inventive ways. It's a little early to tell exactly how it's going to shape up, but as far as I can tell the rightmost lane southbound on 9th and northbound on 7th will be dedicated to buses…..

City Sparkle , a new blog arrival by the Asian Mistress. She has a clever,
snappy intro about herself and blog mission: Every woman should know...how to drive a stick shift; know her mind, change it; have better things to do; how to dance crazy all alone; stare at a phone; get dressed in five minutes; be a princess, get over it; believe in the perfect man, get over it; be single and like it, a lot. Note: Democrats are sexy. A Republican is just an elephant, but a Democrat...Best lemonade in DC recommendations at VagaBlond
Two long-time bloggers are new DC blog arrivals, the-coffeys, Nathan & Valerie,

Ken’s RNR blog is the product of Keith, Elena, and Niki ranting and raving about DC, life, and each other. This blog began in June and many of the post so far have focused on things to do, movies and restaurants. A recent post about the Logan Circle area restaurant, Rice, and begins this way: We all know that Logan Circle is Hot Hot Hot-- new lofts, yummy restaurants, Whole Foods.... One of the great finds in the up and coming neighborhood is Rice Restaurant.
Carol Jane, who is … Complicated. Inquisitive. Self-confident. Yet humble. Catholic. Avid iced caramel macchiato fan, but also a sucker for boba/pearl milk tea/whatever you choose to name it. Books are my obsession: bankruptcy is soon to follow … has been posting photos around DC and elsewhere on her blog.
