XLNTads Nearing Launch
If you want a “sneak peak” at a rapidly evolving website that’s connecting marketers with online-video creators, check out Xlntads.com. Note- I’m on the company’s “creator adviser board,” so don’t expect complete objectivity in this post. But I love that they found me, and that I’ve been able to help shape this company. I only…
Internet Fame Timeline (As Demonstrated by Antoine Dodson)
The Internet fame “arch” is short. It peaks quickly and drops as thunderously. But I didn’t need to tell you that, did I? Exhibit A: Antoine Dodson. From obscurity to meme as “Bed Intruder Song,” but alas he’s now been arrested for marijuana possession and a series of driving infractions.
It’s Official: Newt Gingrich is Running for President!
Uncle Newt told me last night that he’s running for president. He made a YouTube video about it too. I’ve added 3 embeds for the video below, and I recommend starting the second about 2 seconds after the first (then the third 2 seconds later). Let’s work side by side… side by side… side by…
The Power of Blogs for Video Viralization (MacBook Air Parody Case Study)
As I mentioned in my recent eBook (“How to Become Popular on YouTube Without Any Talent“), Obama-Girl creator Ben Relles taught me about the power of blogs to get a viral video to a tipping point.

Whoops- I Forgot I Have a Blog

Bobby McFerrin Turns Stage and Audience Into Instrument
Oh damn this is cool. Bobby McFerrin turns the entire stage into a keyboard, and the audience into his pipes. It’s a fascinating demonstration of our brains in action. Well, not your brain and my brain. We’re just receiving the encoded video. But Bobby’s and the audience. Not the doctors on the stage either. They…

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.
