Lion King and vLogs

The vLog I watched was about a girl named Stefanie Spiro and whats happening in her life at the moment. It was made in february of this year. This is the first time she has vLog but she said she blogs normally. This was not her vLog but her boyfriend's who let her guest vLog because it was their anniversary. She talked about how she saw the Lion King and she also sang a little of a song from it. She talked about concerts and hanging out with her friends. I've come to realize that unless you know the person these vLogs are meaningless. I have never really watched a vLog before this one and I found it kind of interesting. They are public video diaries. It used to be that someone would have a diary and it would be very private and it would contain their most inner secrets and thoughts but now in the information age people now broadcast their diaries to the public. What really caused this change? These vLogs are even more personal than a blog because when recording they are very close to the camera and it always takes place in their homes. they are inviting anyone to listen to them and to come into their homes. I think it's becoming a way to make yourself a star.
