The kind of stuff I will be writing about isn't like a Taylor Swift video where you know what it is. It's more than just posting a video, it's doing background research to find the genre to put in the right place, and then there's so little information about the artist(s) themselves...on their own freaking stuff (on their Soundcloud, YouTube, Pandora description, etc.). There is no hard copy in most cases, so I end up doing more research than I want. How about, "I have no freaking clue what it is or how it was made, but here's the video/song." Again, it's not a big deal, just something we're discussing. A green light to go back to posting videos, Trollheart. |

I run in the same problems of having little information on an artist that I want to post in my journal(s). It takes more time and effort to learn more about an unknown band or artist, but you'll be surprised what is out there. I find information in YouTube comments and video details, in reviews etc. I even translated a page from Russian to English using the Bing Translator to get the only information I could on the subject. But you are right, sometimes you end up doing more research than you want.

It's not a bad thing. I made it clear, did I not, that my decision to stop using videos was a personal thing. I don't ask or expect everyone to agree with or follow my example.
