Sick of Video

Posted on December 11, 2009 by Winagain

Have you noticed how more and more marketers use video to present their new products, services or even blog posts? (doesn’t anyone write anymore?)
I used to be able to go trought 20 or more emails checking what they were about and going deeper in the ones I liked more, because I could scan the content and decide if I needed or wanted to read more.
Now, it’s almost imposible because all I receive are videos. I just checked my pending emails, and there are 12 emails with a link to a video. Now, let’s say they average 15 minutes each. That would take me three hours to watch! and this is from a single day!
Really, it has come to just erase everything that says “video” and go for blog posts instead.
To the marketers out there: don’t use so much video!!

too much video
