Hi,
I’d have to say that by John allowing unmediated unfiltered video of himself in city hall, with constituents and at meetings, to be posted to his blog is forward thinking.

I don’t represent the campaign and am just the video/web guy, but I think the impression that he’s not actually blogging on the site is a false one.

He doesn’t have to type text onto the blog to communicate. That’s the whole breakthrough of video blogging. Video gives you an up close an personal look at the person, much more so then your average text based blog.

I’m not ruling out the possibilty of Councillor Tobin posting his own text posts, that’s up to him, but I’d much rather see him continue to allow people to see the real John Tobin with continued video blog posts.

You would think Steve Garfield would have at least “blue screened” out those two old guys in the background.
