Vlogging from SXSW for NPR

Yesterday I spent time roaming the halls of the Austin Convention Center for NPR Weekend Soapbox and caught up with Steve Garfield, one of the very first video bloggers, Zadi Diaz and Steve Woolf of the popular video blog EPIC FU, blogger Robert Scoble, Fred Davis, part of the “brain trust” that founded and launched Wired Magazine, and Stanford professor Lawrence Lessig. I spoke to them about everything from publicly financed elections to web video formats.

Watch the vlogs below, or on NPR.
