I just announced today who my boyfriend is on my blog, and I want to start to do video blogging as soon as my flip camera arrives from Amazon. I like complete transparency, but I think it can be dangerous too - we need to manage expectations and draw some lines of privacy.

Words can have depth or be empty ... it's all in who's putting them together. My point was about how people feel safer behind a twitter avatar than putting themselves out there in video.

The best can use words to express in ways at times better then image or sound can convey. Icons can also be an anti-fear factor for many who would otherwise not use a service often. Video I think will a greater potential enrichment but a harm at the same time. Many will never use it for more reasons than a comment can hold. That will cause a loss of connection to them & kinda bites. While I have to agree with you in the basic sense I dont agree on text being a format to hide behind.
