I met the Marketing Diva (Toby Bloomberg) at a Cox Communications event. She pulled out her Flip cam and asked me to define social media. So I gave her a quick answer. Then along comes “The 60 Second Marketer” and packages this spontaneous clip into the following video called “What is Social Media.” Suddenly, my…

Online Video Contest for HomeCamera.com
ByNalts
The nice thing about moderately promoted online-video contest is that your odds are really good. HomeCamera.com (a free home surveillance system) asked if I’d do a sponsored video.

The Google vs. Viacom Debate
ByNalts

Best Buy’s Social-Media Image Collapse
ByNalts
Until today, WillVideoForFood didn’t have a “Greatest Corporate Social-Media Collapse” Award, but it’s now going to the uncontested “winner.” Best Buy, a company once known for its savvy social-media presence spearheaded by Barry Judge (seen below, searching Monster.com for jobs at Circuit City), has gone from great to mediocre to embarrassing… in just a few…
How to Find How-To Videos
ByNalts
One of the most profitable areas of online-video is and will remain “how to.” For most subjects, the content is “evergreen” (not requiring frequent updates), it’s highly sought after, and gives advertisers a way to target consumers by specific interest. But how do you find the how-to video you need “just in time”? First, you…

Zack Scott, you are a total perv. What are you looking at pictures of naked ladies for anyway?

Peter Coffin sent them to me.
I’ve made 83 videos in the last 90 days and not one of them needed annotations.
I don’t think that’s his sister, I think that’s really Peter.
Peter, is something you want to tell us?
I’ve thought about this, but wouldn’t people be able to just turn the annotations off? Not sure if YouTube would let this fly to be honest.
A round of applause to James, everybody. Just give it up for that guy, he knows his stuff!
Boobies!!!
