ByNalts

Online-video creators are sobering up after an intoxicated 2007, as they realize that the “road to riches” via online video is fraught with challenges. Business Week proclaimed “amateur video hour” as over in December. Crackle and other sites migrated from UGC (user-generated content) some time ago. And here are some quite recent data points that,…

Canadian Internet Starlet Meets Viral Video Genius

ByNalts

Sophia (aka Mugglesam) goes to a Canadian Internet conference and meets the viral video genius. So fascinating to relive this day through the eyes of a shorter child than me. And if you’re marketing to kids or parents, help me understand why you wouldn’t make Sophia your spokeperson. Because otherwise she might be a tractor…

  3. I remember when I turned 40. I decided to kill myself. I set a pretty long time line for that, about 65 years. I am right on track! 56 years and counting!

    Happy Birthday! You broken down old Viral Video film maker guy you..

  4. Happy Birthday, old person.

    In all seriousness, keep up everything. You’re old, but you’re further ahead of the curve than most of us young people. YT needs to hire you as head of a new sponsored videos division and pay you scary money.

    Holy Hell, 40!!! Is the Queen of England like your sister or something? That’s old! =)

    Happy Birthday buddy!
