We have taken our written blog and are shaping it into more of a video blog for each show and other relevant video content.  According to comScore, there were 30 billion videos watched online in just the month of April 2010.  Clearly the web has gone video and so has GObackgrounds.com.  We will continue to have special written content (legal guidance from our law firm, FTC red flag alerts, etc.) and guest bloggers.  We have a video archive section with nearly 25 shows that you can visit at our information center.  This VOD (Video On Demand) section  is full of rich content on all topics related to the wild and wacky world of background checks.  Enjoy!
