Video library

I'm a big note taker. I like to keep records of almost everything. I almost believe that if it isn't written down then it doesn't exist. Extreme, yes. Too much falls through the cracks when things aren't written down, agreed? The research projects that I manage need to be able to collaborate, so I have them use a wiki. This is useful. But even reading and searching text can be too much. I'm thinking less text and more video. My current strategy is YouTube (hosting,indexing,playing), Ubuntu (jaunty makes me happy), Recordmydesktop (screencasting to ogv), Devede (to convert from ogv/ogg to avi), no audio, don't worry about small mistakes, and keep the videos short. Lets see how far we can get.
