There are lots of different ways to build a community on your blog. Vlogging, or video blogging is a useful tool for helping people to build connections.
This is my first vlog here. It definitely took me a few steps outside of my comfort zone but that is not a bad thing.

Hey Josh,
At least you have hair … 😉
There is no one way to do anything, indeed. Social is about people, but the trick is to practice engagement without being sucked into the vortex. The place that kills creativity and productivity. Sometimes it’s very difficult to resist the allure 😉
@CraigMcBreen:disqus Yeah, got a little still. 😉
That vortex is pretty damn strong. I have seen a few people get sucked in, chewed up and spit out.
If you lose your focus it is really easy to lose time.
Hi Josh! Good for you doing a Vlog. And you’re talking about one of my favourite topics: community-building! I like what you said, about the blogosphere making the world larger – and smaller since we can connect with so many people so easily. Who knows where it goes from here but what an exciting time to be alive!

Hi Lori.
Community building is important and one of my favorite things about social media. It is incredible to me how small the world has become and how many incredible and interesting people we can now connect with.
The vlog was kind of fun. I figure it is like anything else, something that gets better with practice.
There you are!!! Love the hair, Bud!
Yeah, that hair is my finest feature. 😉
