My friend Chris Brogan posted a great article in his blog about the difference between Video, Audio and text for content creators.
Here are the highlights:
1. Video is good for visual information - and that's why interviews are often cut in the middle as they are boring to watch. it is an important point in my opinion especially for DIY content creators, as interviews are one of the cheapest content type to create.
2. Audio creates deeper relations between the listener and the speaker.
3. Text is a great tool to provide information as is.
Another important observation Chris is making, is that there is no one medium any more - you should use different types of media to deliver your message.
These are just the highlights - please go to the original post for more details.

Nice to see this topic floating up to the top as I heard a rumor that the MobaTalk Multimedia Comment System is just about to go into public beta.
Voice, Video, Text, Image – the user decides which format they would like their contribution to the story to be in.
What a good thing that a single easy to use tool is so near completion.
Michael,
sounds like a cool app. I know about the voice part – adding video is a major improvement. Looking forward to using it!
