Our previous VoxPop asked, "Why is Bush so awesome?. Our question this time is less loaded. Simple, but seldom asked: Why do you live here?
This video is especially exciting because it's not just me out there asking the question - it's you, with your cameras. Welcome to statewide collaborative videoblogging. I hope we can do this more often, and create a way for you guys to suggest themes and really participate. Woohoo!
CITIZEN VLOGGERS: Minneapolis (Chuck), Duluth (Starfire), Mall of America (Alexis/Girl Friday), Cold Spring (Duan Kuss/DigElogROCORI), Maplewood (Deborah Vajda and her Korean adopted son, Gus)
THANK YOU for picking up a camera and not being afraid to ask questions. This is powerful mojo, and these are baby steps.

VoxPop Fridays! Maybe this should be an every Friday project or at least monthly. I love the fact that several people are all out there asking the same question. It works so well when edited together. Have fun at SXSW dood.
Great MN story Chuck.
I really enjoy the VoxPop segments because they show the honest reactions of regular folk; plus, they're always funny. Minnesota Stories is my favorite "channel".
I loved this peice. Hell, I think you could turn this one video peice into a whole website. You could make a website called whydoyoulivehere.com and have regional sections for lots of different cities around the world.
People could just upload their our video peices for each different region.
