After the Chris Hampton entry last week, I decided to make this a semi-regular feature. Person Who Rocks #2 is Jay Dedman. Jay is a fanatic with a sense of humor. Jay is an artist, and activist, and a teacher. Jay gets the ball rolling and keeps it rolling. Jay is hard core. So who the heck is this guy? By day, Jay works at Manhattan Neighborhood Network teaching people how to make public access television programming. By night and weekend, he catalyzes the videoblogging revolution. He is one of the founders of the Yahoo Videoblogging Group, one of the organizers of Vloggercon 2005, and the creator of the videoblog momentshowing.net. In his spare time(!) he helps develop FireAnt videoblog subscription software. Jay spent the last year bouncing from conference to conference speaking about videoblogging. Jay is a bee helping spread the pollen of videoblogging all over planet earth. And Jay is just a plain nice dude. You can take him home to your mom, and she’ll like him. He’ll help clear the table. Then he’ll wake up the next day and get a mohawk. No revolution is the work of one person, but it takes certain obsessed, socially adroit, smart people to make change happen this fast, and Jay is one of those people . Congrats to Jay Dedman, Person Who Rocks #2.
