Rumble

It's been years since I posted anything on Rumble. Why? I purchased a new computer. The old one wore out. The old one had a video editing program included, so it was possible to make videos that can be uploaded. The new one didn't, but you could use Microsoft's "Clipchamp".

Clipchamp is not the same program that I had been using. Therefore, there was a learning curve to master. It also requires that you sign in to use it, which I frowned upon. Without any way to edit new videos, there was no reason to upload anything new. That explains why there's no new content being produced on Rumble.

Going back there to use it for uploads reminded me of what I'd done before. Some of the videos got some views, but nothing spectacular.

There is a way to monetize the thing and make money. I laugh as I write this.

Well, maybe that is not really a big joke. I suppose it is always possible that it could turn into a money-maker. But I didn't even think of that with respect to this last trip.

Maybe this should take some thinking...

Update (on next day):

I've done some thinking... Plus I did some work on ClipChamp again. I was successful in getting the video shortened. It may be useful for putting together disparate clips into one larger one, but I haven't checked into that yet.

If I post on Rumble, I'm not likely to make much money. But theoretically, I can make a little. I can't make money on Google because they didn't like what I did in the early history of this blog, and because of that, they won't allow me to make money here. It wouldn't have been much anyway.

In other words, I'm not counting on making money from this. But things could change. It's always possible, I suppose.
