Best Blogs on Online Video

From Kevin Nalty's WillVideoForFood.com

I’ve been adding to my list of blogs related to online-video. It’s up to almost 30 now, but I’m going to eventually rank the top 10. Surprisingly, few of these came from people who posted their blogs in the comments (yet I encourage that).

I’ve found many of them by tracking inbound links or based on the coverage of my recent AdAge story.

Thanks to those of you who have provided blogs and websites. As I’ve said, it's hard to find good sites covering this emerging industry because the words “online video” are used almost as frequently as “web 2.0.”
