I’m so glad that CarriBugbee shared this on The Twitter. Here’s a video clip that sets things straight about the Internets and technology vernacular. Rachel Maddow’s correspondent Kent Jones shows how Montana Senator Max Bacchus referred to lots of “YouTubes in the Crowd.” A double whammy because he pluralized YouTubes, and presumably was thinking not…
