Dans un courrier adressé à Madame Le ministre de l’Intérieur, de l’Outre-mer et des Collectivités territoriales, La sénatrice du Puy-de -Dôme, Michèle André alerte Michèle Alliot-Marie sur les dysfonctionnements qui ont amené, lors du vernissage de la XXIIIe édition de Vidéoformes, à l’interpellation scandaleuse de l’artiste franco-colombienne Triny Prada. Si elle tient à préciser qu’elle a toujours entretenue d’excellentes relations avec les personnels du commissariat central de Clermont-Ferrand elle insiste aussi sur la nécessité de sanctionner tout comportements indignes et de prévenir toute dérive des forces de police

Our friend Jeffrey Taylor posted a great support about the Triny Prada case on the VlogEurope blog. May be Jeffrey is the most cool american living in France. I hope we could meet all of you in Budapest in autumn 08.

The Facebook Internet TV group is gaining ground – and through it I was notified about this neat industry event -VlogEurope 2007.

The event, taking place at Heidelberg, Germany, at 1st and 2nd of September, will focus on creative side of vlogging, and less on business aspects of the community.

I’ve talked with Jeffery Tailor, one of the organizers, about the event and the participants:

This year, we’re looking at the state of videoblogging in our own countries to compare and contrast how video expression on the net is developing locally…. Demographics run from 20 year-old guys from Denmark to 40-something women from Italy. We’re all over the place, and it’s clear that everyone is welcome.

I am looking forward to hear about the results of this specific discussion. The European market developed differently than the American market. It will be great to hear what vloggers think about it.

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to be there in person, but I am certain it will an interesting event. I hope Jeffery and the guys will broadcast the event live – this is exactly how BlogTV can help the community grow.
