Keep in Touch Through a Family Video Blog

Monday May 14, 2007

Did you use your video camera to record Mother's Day activities over the weekend? If so, you have the perfect material for starting a family video blog.

Through your family vlog you can share videos of special events and day-to-day activities with relatives near and far. As an added bonus, you'll have an incentive to shoot and edit more video. Then, maybe next year you can surprise mom with a year's worth of videos from the vlog burned onto DVD.

Family video blogs ROCK!

My wife and I recently started uploading videos of our family to our site at KurtzFamilyBlog.com and the response from the family has been GREAT.

Both sets of grandparents LOVE our family video blog because everyone is busy and it’s nice to be able to see home videos of the grandkids. My wife’s parents live in NC and we live in Michigan, so it a very special thing for them as they only get to see our family 3 or 4 times a year.
