Another quiet evening in New Jersey and Im browsing the site theoneminutesjr.org , one minute videos made by youth from across the globe. Supported by the European Cultural Foundation and UNICEF, this project embodies much of what we videobloggers were always hopeful about – that through making and sharing their own videos, people (in this case kids) all over the world could better communicate and understand each other.
Seems like a great project with more meaning than your average video up on youtube of cats falling off chairs or someone singing along to their favorite music. Not that all that has no meaning, it just seems that oneminutejr says alot more about culture and life in very simple and diverse ways.
