I was uploading some videos today, and I found a new “YouTube Ratings” check-box. You gotta let them know if you’re uploading a video with strobing or flashing lights.
It seems YouTube is guarding those people with photosensitive epilepsy. People living with this condition experience epileptiform seizures upon exposure to certain visual stimuli.
I wonder if there’ll soon be a “check here if your video contains any portion of We Can Make It Because of The Burgers and the Fries.”
A flashmob broke out in another food court. It set a record (see news). 26 million have seen this, so you’d better watch.
In related news, 47 people in a Cleveland Church spontaneously broke into a food-court mob.
There are two forms of comedy that I can’t envision ever “jumping the shark.” They are “The Office” (either UK or US) and “JibJab.” While not every JibJab tops the previous, this one is certainly a giant move in the right direction. We see voice personality Jim Meskimen getting tossed in the air from a poke in the rear. We see Obama singing about changing while riding Unicorns over rainbows. Hillary takes on a communism badge for 2012 elections. McCain pokes himself in a puss-filled face and then collapses behind wheelchair-contained friends.
And this is me free forming off my first view of a video experience I’ll no doubt enjoy several dozen more times (today).
Thank you, Jim. Thank you, JibJab. This sent little unicorn rainbows down my spine!
