YouTube's Broadcast Yourself Raises the Bar on Excellence

This afternoon I am resonating positively after experiencing where YouTube's Broadcast Yourself blog is going... raising the bar on excellence. The Life In A Day Project provides an exciting and inspiring portrait of life of people across the planet... providing us with a glimpse of what community-authored television can be about.

It's great to be alive.. appreciating and grateful for this. I welcome your own thoughts and comments.

Best regards,
