Most of us are sleepwalking through life… missing great moments because we’re lost in our own thoughts and tasks.
Not me anymore. I woke up. I am Zen. I am enlightened. Stillness Speaks. I am aware.
Join me on my spiritual journey, while commuting to work yesterday.
Prompted by Google’s statement that YouTube vows “quicker, tougher copyright enforcement,” ReelSEO’s Grant Crowell tackled this issue on a listenable podcast titled “YouTube Copyright Tips,” with the help of David Michail and Daliah Saper (check 5-minute mark of this video to hear Saper’s illuminating story about what I’ll call a “social-media impaired judge”). Crowell’s got a…
… you know you’ve been written up on HappySlip. I had assumed everyone knows who she is, but I’m finding out otherwise. Get over to HappySlip’s blog right now. Her blog is People Magazine to my East Baltimore Guide. Who did your logo, HappySlip!? It’s splendid.
Notice above we have a special tab for the page devoted to the “Tiffany’s Bag of Crap” Contest. I’ve added my entry called “Bike Off Roof.” Maybe I’m too self critical, but I don’t think it’s one of the worst. I may have to try again.
I got all excited when I read that Hulu.com will distribute DailyMotion.com videos. Sadly, like most of the most-subscribed YouTubers, less than 5% of my traffic occurs beyond YouTube. I couldn’t even remember if I post to DailyMotion. That’s because YouTube dominates, but also because people on other video sites aren’t as loyal to them, and…
Looking for some new stats on YouTube and Advertising? Here’s a roundup thanks to eMarketer, Credit Suisse, Mashable and an infographic from MDG Advertising. Some highlights: US digital video ad spending will nearly double in only four years, climbing from $4.14 billion this year to $8.04 billion in 2016. The CPM for midtier sites and…
Friends, online-video is going to be a fun storm in 2011 as the drama has just begun. It’s the first official business day of 2011, and that prompted me to awaken at 3:00 a.m. with great curiosity. I spent 4-plus hours diving into dozens of articles and blogs, and have wrapped it all up nicely…

Thank you. I thought I was the only dope that took videos while driving. Now I can finally tell my wife I’m not the only one! And I don’t even read!
But seriously, get THEPod (www.thepod.ca). Best in-car gadget I own (and the only one). Works great with the camera and can withstand high-speed turns (with some assistance from one of those little sticky-gel-pad-thingies).
Best part? Everything. Because I’ve done it all (including driving with your teeth and driving off the side of the road while taping).
No teeth on the wheel here, but it’s the favorite in-car video I’ve made:

We finally get to see the man behind the TK initials. Sorry about Uncle Irv.
I’m not sure I can afford a http://www.thepod.ca, but thanks for reminding me about the sticky gel pad. At least that will keep the camera from rolling away. I’ve found the dashboard videos easier than the “hide the camera from the tollbooth guy” ones. In that case I stack a camera on top of a stack of my dry cleaning. It’s very adjustable and usually stays put. Trickiest part is pulling up to the right spot so he’s in frame.
I’ve got all my props together for my YouTube bubble burst video I’m shooting on the drive home. If I don’t upload or post in a while it’s because I swerved off the road trying to make it today.
Wow, Revver must not be paying well. Mine (red version) was only about $20. But you could make your own. It’s nothing more than a mini-beanbag for your camera. Just don’t open them. It’s hell to close them and keep all those beads inside.
Thanks for the condolences. And yes, that was one of my few on-camera scenes. Unlike you, I prefer to stay BEHIND the camera.
Back to my post at work.
