I remember a quote I received 16 years ago via e-mail — back in the days when you couldn’t verify things through Snopes, Google or Hoaxbusters. To put this time in perspective, a girlfriend challenged me to find the original name for Winnie the Pooh and it took a phone call to Disney’s librarian to…
Time Magazine on Video Chefs: From Depression to Heavy Metal Vegan

Want some indigestion and entertainment? Look no further than YouTube chefs. Courtesy of Mike VideoEditGuy, it’s Time magazine explores chefs — ranging from a 95-year-old lady who grew up in the depression to a head-banging vegan chef. And Harley, the EpicMealTime guy who gives “Man vs. Food” a run for its calories. Who hasn’t heard of candy…
Online Video Viewers Have ADHD
ByNalts
Well the study didn’t claim online video viewers have ADHD, but it might as well. Research released by Podzinger this morning shows that consumers play only 15% of their video. Their attention span is one minute (vs. 3 for audio). Few download anymore. And we’ll tolerate 10-15 second prerolls more than the 30 second monsters….
Ways to Succeed at Viral Video

There are some nice nuggets in this piece by Robyn Tippins in AllBusiness.com. It’s titled “10 Ways to Succeed at Viral Video.” I especially like Robyn’s advice to gain student “thought leaders” to test and gain initial traction. And her willingness to “start over” if something doesn’t get a good early response. I rarely do…

A “just in time” viral video to promote The Guardian. I think we’ll see a lot more of these. An easy way to get viral is to create something topical and quick. For advertisers and marketers, this means accelerating approval processes, shooting quickly, and giving the creative agency some freedom to move FAST.

completely off topic – if anyone tivo’d the abc show i*caught tonight, nalts dressed as a hick at the 7-7-7 gathering shows up at about minute 26. he’s only there for a half second…
themightythor recorded it. He was showing off Nalts’ part in NutCheese’s Stickam room.
PC – I didn’t see the show – was it worth watching?
Sukatra – Short answer: not really
Long answer: It was a one-hour show dedicated to tracking down the people who shot and posted some viral videos. In one hour, they showed maybe 5 viral videos.
In typical network fashion, they covered very little. I’m guessing here, but it was about:
4.99% telling you what the show is about and that there’s video on the internet
20% setup of the stories by the host with silly graphics and special effects
10% non-interview story background
5% clips from viral videos
10% interviews
20% commercials
30% transitions into and out of commercials: teasers of what’s to come and recaps of what you just saw before they went to commercial
.01% Nalts
The best part (other than the shot of Nalts) was when they talked about the survey they had on their site of which video the public wanted to learn more about. The public spoke, and they spent about 10 seconds giving you a short synopsis.
PC – thanks!
doh!
Youtube trivia: The very, very last word spoken in the recent release “Disturbia” is the word “Youtube.”
That was the best part of the whole movie Marquisdejolie. =)
Post a video nalts. I’m bored.
Nalts, when are you going to start stickin’ it to the man that controls traditional media? High time you updated the themes in the film, “Network.” You are mad as hell, and you’re not going to take it anymore, At least that’s what wifeofnalts said to me on 7-7-7.
Oh maybe I should start antagonizing “old media.” That would endear me to Lauren Michaels and stuff. Hey- does ANYONE have a copy of that iCaught?
Marquis- I love your response to my teeth reference. Be real- you weren’t watching my videos. You picked it up in a tag.
Nalts, thanks for putting this blog together. I just discovered it the other day, and am enjoying it thoroughly… keep up the good work.
Where’s TH?! The kid is missing.
Do we need a UK Amber Alert?
