Hi just a quick video I wanted to tell people about another YouTube channel I've got. in fact, it was my first YouTube channel before I started the Eev blog when I when I created a separate Channel I originally uploaded my first video in fact to uh, this alternative channel that I've got and then I decided Well no better start up a proper E blog channel but it's been there for many, many years and it's called Alzone A L T Z N E Click here and you can check it out and you can subscribe to it. and the reason that I'm pointing it out is because I thought it's about time I probably have a second Channel that I you know that I can put uh, just the different content the content that doesn't really belong on the Euv blog channel CU I Know there's quite a lot of people who subscribe to my channel and they like me to keep stuff on topic. and occasionally I've done videos and I go and I don't number them I don't give them the E log, you know number 330 or whatever it is.
What's this 331 I think possibly um and I I sat there scratching my head going oh, it's not really Electronics related so I shouldn't really give it an EV blog number. it's sort of those kind of videos that I'm thinking of putting. Now on this alternative. Channel um I've already got some videos there.
It'll be just a complete mixed bag of stuff. um, stuff that's on there at the moment. some of my canyoning videos uh, some you know San videos home videos, that kind of stuff. um, a couple of silly little, uh short films.
I've done stuff like that so uh, but I plan on putting more E blog related content on there. Uh, for example, um, you know I did a shot an unboxing of the $140,000 Agilant scope in my garage when I got it came in this huge crate thing and I shot a video of that and I haven't uploaded it because I thought, oh, you know it's a bit pointless, but it's something that can go on to the other alt. Zone Channel and uh, the idea is that if I build up enough audience there, then you know I don't want to move audience away from my EV blog channel. but if I can build up enough audience there, I can actually produce some content for that channel.
uh, like for example, people have asked Can I review my video camera for example and well, yeah, I probably can, but that's not something that probably belongs on my Eev blog channel, so it's perfect for the other channel if I want to do video blogging tutorials if I want to do other stuff and I want your feedback and ideas on this. For example, uh, I've done some off-topic rants um before on the Eev blog channel They Don't Really belong there. you know, teler or political rants or whatever and well, I can put those on my Alzone channel and I want your feedback on should I actually have what should be on the Evev blog channel and what shouldn't what should be on the other channel? Uh, please leave your feedback in the comments or jump on over to the Eev blog. Forum To uh, discuss this because do my live shows for example, belong on the Eev blog channel? or do you want them on my alternative channel? uh, my walk time rants or something like that. Would you prefer to see them over there mailbag? perhaps? I Know, mailbag is very popular. Got no plans to move it, but if everyone tells me well, they'd rather see mailbag on the other segment perhaps then on the other channel then I'll move it to the other channel. so please let me know. Um, so here it is.
Here's the link. please uh, click and subscribe to it in YouTube By the way, it'll only be in YouTube it won't make it to my blog. might post the occasional uh video from it on my blog if I think it's worthy or something like that. but really, the only way you're going to be able to watch this is to subscribe via YouTube There we no podcast feed or anything like that.
Well, in fact, there is, um, if you go to my YouTube channel there, they YouTube actually have a podcast feed as well. There a little tab there that says feed and you can click on that. you can get an RSS feed of it if you really want, but pretty much it'll only be Youtube It'll be just random comments. It could be my S you know, just stupid, You know, home videos of SE and just running around or something like that.
or maybe even just random stuff around the lab. if I'm down in the garbage room I find another photocopier way I'll hit record and I'll just dump it to my other channel or something like that. Just things happening around the lab that really are too silly and pointless to put on the main eev. Vlog Channel Woo So there you go I Hope um, it work.
I Don't plan on putting much effort into it. It won't take content away from Eev blog. um, except the off-topic content I guess um, which some people have been complaining about which is probably a good thing, but no, I won't be spending extra. You know, real extra effort and resources.
Uh, doing stuff for that alternative channel? Uh, because it'll be minimal effort. You know, no credits, no spit and polish? I Put a little bit of spit and polish into my Euv blog. uh, videos. usually in terms of editing and stuff like that, but this one, it'll probably just be record dump that kind of thing.
So anyway, I need to hear your feedback on this. please. And here's the link again. it is Youtube.com/ user SL Alzone A L T Z O N E Catch you next time y.
I'd like to see 1 channel just for tear down episodes, and a second for everything else. You have so much awesome it needs to be split up ๐
Please stick to your EEV blog and electronics related topics, leave the off-topic things to others.
Altzone
youchube!
Understandable. It's extra work to put on the blog site though, and the podcast. Could maybe have automated script do it on a separate section of the site, but I'm not sure many would bother watching my off-topic stuff that way?
I miss the drive time rants! Just can't get used to you being on the WRONG side of the car. But, what should I expect, your on the wrong side of the PLANET!!! LOL I love your channel Dave thank you for your time and keep 'em coming!
Yes, I would put the venus and mars episodes on the 2nd channel for example.
But not the Ltspice episode.
cooking?
The irony of how short that sentence was. lol
Slightly off topic, sorry. Dave, can you please do a video about the shift in computer motherboards from electrolytic caps to solid caps. I've seen an explosion (so to speak) in ruptured electrolytics in the last 5 years. MB manufacturers have shifted to all solid cap boards. Have you seen this trend in other devices? Thanks for all the great videos Dave!
Another BTTF prop in the background! Will you ever have a flux capacitor? ๐
Obviously you make the call on where the line is.
Since you are looking for opinions, I like the Teardowns, mail bag, product reviews, circuit & physical device design videos, reverse engineering, etc.
I know I would find it a bother to subscribe to a 2nd channel and wade through odds and ends videos on channel 2 to watch for example the Mail Bag videos.
Therein lies the problem, you said it yourself. Some is fine, 50% is not. Where is the line? Everyone has a different opinion!
As with all my stuff, there is no ulterior motive. I would like to potentially upload more content, and I simply don't think a lot of it belongs on the eevblog. And I'd like more subscribers to my other channel so it's worthwhile uploading any off-topic content there.
If no one signs up, so be it, I'll either not bother uploading, or upload to eevblog (to all the usual complaints)
No, in fact it's the opposite. If anything, spreading my content is a BAD thing to do in terms of stats and ad income. If I wanted to extract the most possible financial benefit from my my channel, I would ensure that I consolidate everything on eevblog and upload several videos a day on any topic.
ever think about doing a beginners series? i know your channel is directed more towards professionals but a "101" video every now and again would be pretty cool for us newbies interested in the field.
You should rant about how you hate us yanks and how we're so out of tune with technology when compared to the rest of the world.
yo pense que EEVBLOG trataba de consttruir cosas o tips de electronica y cosas asi, como la construccion de la fuente de poder, pero veo que solo habla de osciloscopios y cosas asi, y la verdad es aburrido.
Yeah, the idea is ok. Off topic there, ee stuff on this channel here. But that 140k $ agilent should be on this channel!
Whether it's here or there, I'll be watching it.
is the space man thing in the background new?
yes, an EEV out-takes "extras"play list and bloopers playlist perhaps?
Regulare episodes on the main splash page and "extras" on the Episode guide page, the bloopers posted in the forum?
I like the idea of having this option, that way you can get really creative on the blog, and keep the EE for hard core electronics fun stuff…there are those that want to keep it one only, but then, what fun is that…Blog on Aussie Mate@!!@ Johnne in Seattle
Hi, Dave
Ep 330 must be one of my favorites so far, since it was not just a tear down (which I love), you gave a lot of good info on troubleshooting. I'd love to see that as a regular part of the eev blog since us "young players" and newbies learn a lot from tear downs combined with how to's.
Crazy Aussie bloke overload!
Leave all your stuff on one channel and just number/title it differently!
I certainly understand having different channels for different topics. However, even though I do watch all the videos you make on EEVblog, nobody is forcing me to take the time to sit through every video relevant or not. It is my choice whether or not I watch a particular video. So I don't understand why some people are having issues with a small number of off topic videos. It would be different if say half of the EEVblog videos were off topic. As it is for me, not much of a problem.
