Personally speaking

A sad attempt at a video blog

I peeled an apple perfectly this morning. The continuous peel inspired me to make a video blog post.

After three desperate attempts it still didn’t come out perfect.

Perhaps I should call it how to shoot the perfect flop show !

Incidentally this is my first blog post from the air ! Yes I’m flying back home on Delta and enjoying its free wifi.

This post wasn’t loaded properly on board so I completed the image upload at Paris airport. Isn’t it marvellous how technology lets you function from anywhere ?

  2. I so wanted to see the video but it refuses to load :-(. There’s a kind of charm in watching the peel come off in one piece. I remember watching my grandmother with great fascination as she did it.

  3. Wonderful – but the post wants to DOWNLOAD the video to my PC (rather than streaming it) when I click the link! You might look into uploading it to YouTube (then using the YouTube embed code – I think, now, you can just directly paste the YouTube link from your browser’s address bar onto a separate line in your post, and it automatically works) or finding a plug-in that will allow visitors to play the video, rather than downloading it.

    Safe travels!

  5. Well tried Sunita. Getting the perfect peel itself is a big challenge. Am sure, in days to come you will ace it. Look forward to your own you-tube channel soon!

    1. No it hasn’t been deleted but I’ve been told I should upload it on TouTube and then post so that it streams live

    Did you not embed the video in the post? I can only see a url?

  9. I didn’t have any problem viewing it today – so I am assuming the problem has been fixed.
    We all start small – I’ve only done a couple of videos but it is much easier with the Blogger platform since Google owns both Blogger and You Tube – uploading you tube videos from my phone to You tube, and then attaching to my blog, is easy if I use my computer for the blog part.
