Sadly, several dozen of them don’t exist any more.

Oh- did I forget Tribe, Knowitall or Putfile? Marquis- I swear your stuff is on more sites than Michael Caine in movies.

What? No mention of Tribe, Knowitall or Putfile?

Stumbling for me is like Mass for a Catholic.

I think you should LinkIn as both people and accept my invitation!

I got on Facebook and MySpace originally to keep track of my sons, who were using the sites. I never go to MySpace anymore (mainly because most of my students are there and they love trying to find me and add me as a friend).

I use Facebook mostly to keep track of what is going on with my neices and my sons while they are away at school. They are more likely to post their innermost feelings on the web than to tell their mother. Just wait, sukatra; you’ll see what I mean in a few years!

I am a social media neanderthal, too.

I myspace a bit, facebook less, and watch maybe 3-5 YT videos aside from my subscriptions a day.

And let me tell you why I don’t do much myspacing or facebooking. APPS MAKE ME MAD AS HELL. I figured out how to shut them off on MySpace, making them the obvious choice. Stumbling, however, I did when it first came out and was like “well, this kind of sucks.” I look at digg a bit.

I said the same thing with Revver and made some nice money that summer they did pre-roll. Then that dried the HELL up. Those people are great and I wish they had succeeded, but they just lacked a boon to say “this is great for creators and for viewers.” I wish I had been working at my YT well-being all the time I was trying to work on that, I’d be further ahead right now.

I was on NBC’s Most Outrageous Moments on Tuesday though. My nutkick clip made it.

Nalts, stay a Neanderthal. Trust me. If you get too involved in social media you will not have anytime to make videos. it’s a black hole. Help!

Facebook and Myspace????? Yet another piece of evidence that you really are a dork.

I’ve been stumbling for well over a year, and JimmerSD is right; it’s old. But I still stumble on occasion. When I’m bored, i.e., when you haven’t posted a new video in several days.
