Quest to find a better way

So I've been working hard at this video blog thing, and spent many hours stumped on the best way to make a video. Found lots of helpful tips...that is if you use an Apple....which I don't.
Hmmm...how long did it take for me to realize that. Too long. So my video post are changing as I go along, as I discover the best, or better way to do this. So I've started using Windows media player, which may or may not be the best format, but is easier for me. The quality has been a lot higher if you ask me.
