Through the grace of the challenge organizers, Day 25 was a day of rest, which means my catching up efforts continue with Day 26. The push for the 26th day is to explore multimedia commenting, which is easy because I’ve already done it.

The conversation surrounding my implementation of video commenting was well-balanced between enthusiasm for the expressiveness of the medium and hesitation due to the barriers of both producing and consuming content in that medium. I come down strongly on the side of offering as many different ways to comment as possible. Yes, it might take longer to consume the comment, but you’re worth it. I haven’t given enough energy to examining audio commenting tools, although I suppose you could use Seesmic without a camera to that end. We’ll save that exploration for another challenge.
