I start my day like many others who enjoy and occasionally write about Online Video, reading. There are a select few writers I read every day who in my opinion cover the space best, this post is dedicated to them. Why? Because they educate readers like you and me from their vast experience in and knowledge of the online video world.
Larry Kless runs KlessBlog and has been covering online video trends, online video platforms, and the industry in general for many years. He’s a well respected activist in our space and this year was nominated a Streaming Media All-Star by the good folks at StreamingMedia.com. My favorite aspect of Larry’s blog is his engaging video interviews and his thorough approach.
Ryan Lawler, senior editor of Contentinople acts fast, getting the word out about online video platform news toot sweet. I can always count on Ryan to get the facts straight and often ahead of the pack.
Mark Robertson, founder of ReelSEO has been running the site for years as a side business but has recently left his day job behind to pursue his dreams of covering the space full-time. Mark’s blog covers the highly interesting topic of video SEO and optimization as well as general news in OV.
Day Rayburn, one of the first to dedicate himself completely to online video has been deeply entrenched in the space for longer than I can remember. Dan’s got his finger on every intricate detail in OV, especially the CDN side with his blog BusinessOfVideo.com. He is also Executive Vice President of StreamingMedia.com, and is very active in the space via conferences (Online Video Platform Summit, StreamingMedia East, StreamingMedia West, and others). And don’t bother contradicting him, he’ll talk you out of it.
Pete Wylie, editor of FierceOnlineVideo. I’ve been a fan of the Fierce web sites and newsletters since I was at CNET almost 5 years ago. Pete’s blog is a newer addition to the network and my personal favorite. What I like about Pete is his straightforward approach and no nonsense attitude. He digs in and tells it like it is, the straight dope.
Will Richmond is founder and editor of VideoNuze, an informative and well-rounded news and analysis blog covering several different aspects of the OV space. Will knows the space well and everyone in it, often drumming up key players for engaging podcasts, and webinars. I also like his “4 Items Worth Noting” weekly roundup.
Kudos to you guys, thanks for educating us.
