Apple has positioned themselves as an exceptional provider of consumer electronics, producing not only computers, but music players, video players, cameras, and web communication devices as well. With the latest introduction of the iPod Nano, people can now listen to their music, record video, and even play games using the device no bigger than the palm of your hand.
As pointed out over at the Dapeem.com blog, you can now create video posts with your iPod nano, which means it's a lot more convenient to record video than ever before.
Why is this important?
Video is the hottest trend online -- forget about everything else, it's all about video. Why? Because video is more interesting than text, it's easier to digest (honestly, you just sit there), it's embeddable, spreadable, and enjoyable regardless of the production value or lack thereof.
Video has improved tremendously since the early days of YouTube, and internet providers are able to handle it a lot better as well, which goes to show that in the back-end, video is progressing ... and fast!
A few years ago, there was a boom of podcasts -- episodic deliveries of audio, which mirrored talk radio or standard radio show. Shortly after that, there was the boom of video podcasts, most famously launched in popularity by the Four Eyed Monsters crew, which used the medium to promote their film.
The act of video podcasting required not only video equipment, but audio as well (to deliver crisp sound) -- but now, with the advancement of technology from Apple, everyone, including filmmakers, critics, fans, and even business people, can document what they see when they see it, create video podcasts on the go, which is a lot better than sitting in a room in my opinion, and provide their audience or prospective customer with high quality content in a new way.
Whether you use the iPhone, iPod touch, nano, you'll be able to create video on the fly, sync to your computer, and upload your video to YouTube in under 5 minutes -- in fact, the ipod touch and iphone don't even require you to sync: simply shoot, edit, and post to YouTube.
