Pointer: VideoJug - Life Explained On Film

Topics:, Interesting Tech, Insights, Education, Videos

A friend sent me a link to the VideoJug.com site, an interesting site that declares it explains life on film. In some ways, it reminds me of the Life Hack blog and, especially, Life Hacker site.

Appropriate for the upcoming Valentine's Days are the Relationships video lessons such as the humorous & helpful "How to Be the Perfect Girlfriend" and "How to Be the Perfect Boyfriend". (I love their "Top Tips".)

The videos cover a wide range of life situations, including dealing with neighbours, household repairs, automobile maintenance, using technology, and cooking.

There was even a video "How to Use a Shower. At first, I thought it would be useless. Doesn't everyone know how to use a shower. But as I watched it, I realised that it does address the needs to many people, especially men who find themselves living on their own. Things such as choosing shower curtains and cleaning the shower might be new territory for some.

Video Jug is based in the UK and many of the video reflect British situations. But the site is well designed to cater to international audiences. For example, the cooking video recipes have accompanying Web pages that can switch measures among US, UK imperial, and metric measurements.

Vistors are invited to submit their own instructional videos and there's even a video "How to Make a 'How To' Video" to help one get started.

You might also want to read David Tabizel's book "The Internet - an Investment Perspective" (Financial Publications 1992).

In this book Tabizel predicted a "Three Wave Theory" of the Internet. The first wave was about hardware, telecoms infrastructure and search capability.

The second wave was about rich media content and user feedback and content. The third wave of the Internet will be (according to Tabizel) when the digital world merges with the 'real world' to form a "seamless and mobile cross platform digital society, not just in publishing and economic trade, but also in terms of social and political integration".

Tabizel predicted that entire political parties, stock markets and even digital economies would emerge forming "super-virtual" economic nations by 2015, some of which would eventually challenge the independence of physical nations.
