Okay first check out this top-10 list of social-media marketing fails and wins. I just happened to find the Canadian article titled “Top 10 social media hits and misse in 2010,” and my own video hiding in it. Can you find it?

ByNalts
Not a lot of the online video sites pay much attention to the blogosphere (yes I’m talking about YouTube especially) so it’s nice to get a note like the one below. The backdrop is that I produced a video called “Lay Me Off” (aka “Fireable Offense”) that features myself trying to get laid off. Folks…

Ouch. The Fine Line Between “Storytelling” and Inauthenticity
ByNalts
Online-video has rules, and I’ve broken one. And I don’t care. A while back two YouTubers (myself and CharlesTrippy) did a fake feud on YouTube that created something of a backlash.

Is Amateur Online-Video Under Siege by Hollywood and Madison Avenue?
ByNalts
“Viral videos are on their way out. You’re the Chia Pet of 2007.” That’s from an e-mail sent last night from my sister, who produces for a major television network on the west coast. There seems to be a great skepticism about amateur video’s endurance when the competitive Huns from Hollywood and Madison-Avenue Mongolians are…

You are SO funny, Kevin! I don’t want my 2 minutes back. Look out zefrank, a new genre has emerged: Commute Video. I predict it will replace Commentary Video. It’s got wheels.
On the YouTube post I’ve got some guy berating me about how irresponsible to video tape and drive. Um- I was destroying federal currency, lighting a fire in a moving auto, and berating the very channel that I was using to berate it. And DRIVING while videotaping was the irresponsible thing?
I shouldn’t have named it YouTube Rant. There are about a million videos with that same name…

Dude, you need some audio books to listen to. Even after a 45 minute commute to work (each way, each day), I STILL don’t get that loopy. Maybe your exhaust is leaking into the cabin?
But the point is valid. Don’t they always say “buy low, sell high.” I think he’s high for not selling.
