ONN – Downtown Oakland Drive Around By Oaklander YouTuber Shows City During Pandemic
I found this video by YouTube channel zoroe and “liked” it, which put it through the Zennie62Media network, and here on Oakland News Now. The video producer wrote “A drive through my neighborhood in Oakland California during the Coronavirus pandemic, on March 25th 2020”, and that was that.
It shows a drive through parts of Downtown Oakland and Lake Merritt, and is notable for the lack of life on the street. A sign of our times.
Stay tuned.
Note from Zennie62Media and Oakland News Now: this video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. What we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a vlogger with the Zennie62 on YouTube Partner Channel, then uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Oakland News Now site and Zennie62-created and owned social media pages. The overall objective is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours. Now, news is reported with a smartphone: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
