How to Video Blog - AOL Journals
AOL added an easy to use video blogging feature to AOL Journals using Userplane’s Webrecorder product.
The Userplane Webrecorder enables bloggers to record posts via their webcam. The feature requires no special plugins and the webcam is instantly recognized. Possible use cases for bloggers include daily video blog recaps, blog announcements, or even full post video recordings.
How to Video Blog on AOL:
1. Setup an AOL Journals Account
- Go to AOL’s People Connection
- Click on the “Blogs” tab
- Click on “Create a Blog”
- Enter AOL screen name or sign up an account (free)
2. Create a Journal
- Select Journal/Blog type - Public or Private
- Enter a name a description for your Journal
- Select a category for you Journal (ex. Technology)
- Choose Simple or Custom setup (custom will allow you to the blog layout, colors, features and more)
- note: video blogging is available on both “simple” and “custom” journals
3. Create a video blog post
- Click on “Add Entry”
- Enter blog post “subject” (title)
- Click on “add video” or click camera icon
- Select “Record” on left side of video screen
- Allow camera detection
The Userplane Webrecorder application will appear once the camera is detected. Make sure to allow web cam connection. Once your camera is active use the simple recording function buttons to record, stop, play or cancel your video.

You can save a recording that you like by pressing “save” button located underneath “new recording (red)”. This will dock your recent video. Now you can “Add Video” or record another video to take the place of the original.
Once the blogger has successfully added the video a camera icon will appear in the blog post. To polish off the post text can be added before or after the video clip. The completed video blog post must be saved and then will be published.
