Before I start, we have noticed a huge jump in our RSS subscriber feed. I would like to welcome our new readers to the OBOX world. I hope you are not disappointed and that you keep coming back for more in the future!

Since we have started From the Couch the response has been great from viewers and sponsors alike.

In the three and half weeks that From the Couch has been live we have received over 10,000 hits to the site, been featured on Best Web Gallery, been on the radio and received offers for sponsorship and collaboration.

So my question to you is have you started your video blog yet? I have posted a video on what you need to start a blog which can be found here: Creating a Video Blog - Part 1.

I seriously think it is the way of the future and that you should get your foot in the door now. You no longer need a TV deal to have your own reality show, all you need is a cellphone which can take videos and a computer to store and upload on.

From there you will have your very own reality show, it can be about anything - sport, the web, birds, flowers, air - anything! This is 'blogging 2.0'.

By creating one now you can build your content and viewer base to a point which will be quite respectable when the advertisers wipe the crust out of their eyes and realize that there is a new way to advertise.
