Corolla, leveraged popular YouTuber LisaNova to promote the contest (she was second place last year with this “LisaNova does George Bush” video). I spoke with LisaNova via phone for the first time on Saturday, when TheMightyThor1212 was good…

Are Your Videos DO Belong to Us (YouTube)?

ByNalts

Thanks to Joe Chapuis (WebVideoZone) for pointing this Boing Boing report out. It appears that the language around YouTube’s ownership of your content is getting a little tighter. Fortunately, they’re not trying to go for “exclusives.” Here’s a Boing Boing post by David Gulbransen that reminds us that a) we can always yank our videos,…

Rhett and Link, comedic video amateurs, are mountaineering above the overhang of “The Great Cliff of New-Media Sponsored Advertising.” They’re harnessed to each other with a taut rope, knotted with creativity. The friends swing effortlessly to the next hold in a pendulum traverse. Rhett knows the objective danger as he firmly grabs his nub, and Link’s total attention is committed to…

Weirder Book Comments Anyone?

ByNalts

So the book site (BeyondViral) is pretty darned live for this weeks’ official release. Now c’mon WillVideoForFood “backrowers.” You’ve done majestically on Amazon’s ratings. Let’s show David M. Scott (he’s like the Fred of social media) how fun people respond to blogs. He and Steve Garfield helped get me into Wiley’s New Rules for Social…

The Best Tool for Uploading Your Video to Multiple Video Sites

ByNalts

Nearly 9 months ago I begged for an alternative to uploading my videos manually to multiple websites. But shame on me. I’ve been uploading to dozens of sites for nearly two years, and we’re talking about nearly 500 videos. So that translates to several thousand times of doing the mundane “title it, describe it, tag…

Creating the Perfect Online Video Site (Frankenstein Style)

ByNalts

I’m planning on doing a thorough review of the major online video sites, but here’s my first attempt at creating the perfect online video site: It would have the traffic and community of YouTube. It would have Revver’s advertising-sharing model It would have Metacafe’s ability to sift the best content It would have that cute…

  5. hey, that’s the same blazer and shirt as the happyslip video… did you go to new york from PA to record for Fox Friends Philadelphia?

  7. I’m not trying to start a whole Fox News is biased debate, but I’m used to news shows where reporters and anchormen do not give their own personal opinion during news and interviews. It was kind of weird for them to start off the report/interview saying that they think it’s bad for YouTube to be sharing in ad revenue.

    Also, how were you not nervous?

  8. Yes, he’s right. Just before bringing you on telling us that they think people shouldn’t get paid for their videos then introducing you, it was a bit out of order.

    It would of been ace if you had said, “before we start I think newsreaders shouldn’t get paid for reading the news…”

    Haheeeey.

  12. What’s up with the female reporter saying “i don’t think they should get paid”! ha… how about you do your reporting for free, bit**! lol… anyway, congrats on the news bit!

    I think the only time Nalts is nervous is when he’s *not* in front of a camera!

  15. Nalts looks like a fat, young John Lithgow.

    Woodblock you’re right. That’s why I’m never without a camera.

    Mark- feel free to keep the abuse here.

    Trip/marquis- my favorite part of the day is reading your posts.

    Oh- and PC. YES I shot them both in the same day- morning in Philly and afternoon and evening in NYC. In fact, I’m terrified because there were some lunatics making a video on Times Square and I got on camera. They were women wearing rockets between their legs and protesting the war.

  21. Cool nalts =) gane check the most of your content on youtube tomorrow at work.. should keep me busy for a while 😀
    Best of luck

  23. We all have been betrayed since 1950. Now its “payback time” Trust me on this one. As a country, we are running out of gas. Yes, maybe just fumes. Who’s fault is this? Answer: Washington D.C.
