Vlogs also often take advantage of Web Syndication to allow for the distribution of video over the Internet using either the R.S.S. or Atom syndication formats, for automatic aggregation and playback on mobile devices and personal computers (See Video Podcast ). Though many vlogs are collaborative efforts, the majority of vlogs and vlog entries are authored by individuals. HISTORY Vlogging arose as a video form of Blogging but video blogging is also, in another sense, a continuation and expansion of Video Diaries and Bulletin s, which is a form of community media having a history dating back to the 1980 s . In the 1980s Video Camera s became more widely available in industrialised countries. The B.B.C. noted the growth of a social phenomenon of video diary making, and in 1993 Chris Mohr and Mandy Rose of the B.B.C. Community Programmes United ... the television series, " Video Nation ", in which members of the public, across the U.K. , were given Hi-8 video cameras for one year, during which time they filmed their everyday lives. More than 10,000 video tapes were recorded and sent to the B.B.C., from which approximately 1300 shorts were edited and shown on T.V. The first to be shown was called ''"Mirror"'' and was made by Gordon Hencher . Viewing figures were high (from 1 million to 9 million) and led to some themed series of "Video Nation" shorts, such as African Shorts, Hong Kong Shorts, Coming Clean, Bitesize Britain and others. The BBC's "Video Nation" is still running and operates in 33 regional centres throughout England and Wales these days experimenting with new film forms and technologies such as iTV, H.D. and online social networking. "Video Nation" has a sub-website within the enormous structure of the BBC's site {Link without Title} . During the same few years that "Video Nation" was getting started the Internet was evolving into a W.W.W. but, at first, the Bandwidth and processing power required to do video online made it a difficult proposition for most people. Gradually computers and connection speeds improved. Vlogging saw a strong increase in popularity beginning in the year 2005 . The Yahoo! Videoblogging Group saw its membership increase dramatically in 2005 . The most popular video sharing site to date, YouTube , founded in February 2005 , was publicly launched between August and November 2005 . SIGNIFICANT EVENTS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF VIDEO BLOGS
