Turns Out Twittering is as Profitable as Blogging
Oh wait. I don’t make money on either. So what explains my recent neglect of WillVideoForFood and obsession with Twitter? Maybe because it forces me to be terse.
This report by The Onion is a wonderful news satire of how careful Obama was to respect McCain during the debates, while McCain avoided all eye contact with him. This is one of the few Onion video clips that gets better as it progresses. If anyone knows someone at The Onion, please let ’em know…
Who said Google isn’t in the content space? Today it announced via YouTube the acquisition of Next New Networks (NNN)… and the creation of YouTube Next (see YouTube blog). Cartooninator and NNN co-founder Fred Seibert is not staying on board, but many of the folks behind Obama Girl, The Key of Awesome and AutoTune the…
Here’s another ranking of top video sites (by LightReading.com). I’m reminded that it’s probably time for me to update my ranking of the top revenue-sharings sites. I admire LightReading’s thorough review, but I’m surprised that it overlooked the fundamental differences in business models between these sites. I suppose LightReading is an infrastructure site that is…
As the “auteur of the awful,” who has also marketed vaccines, I believe I have a unique ability to instruct you on how to vaccinate the world from your viral video. Follow these 10 tips and I can almost guarantee you a non-viral video. Make it long. Say 5-10 minutes. Videotape yourself describing your day….
Although Obama hasn’t been elected President, he’s already won the video election. There’s no disputing that his supporters have mobilized better via online video. Want proof? You Cost Obama the White House. As part of the “get your liberal ass out of bed and vote” campaign, this is an old personalized video trick but rather…
I usually don’t make a lot of noise about a contest I’m entering, and I’ve been entering fewer lately. The competition is high, and I rarely win (although often I’m a finalist). The Oreo contest intrigued me because certain YouTube creators were asked to enter, and I figured that would improve my odds. There’s going…

You’re not hard to find.
My obsession has been ancestry.com
I found a direct relative who fought with an infantry battalion from Iowa in the civil war. He was promoted, and ended up leading a colored infantry division in Arkansas. I guess only whites could be officers. His family is listed on an 1880 census form. There is a column on the form that asks the census taker to write in if, on the day of the visit, the person is too sick to do their normal duties, and what their ailment is. The only person for whom anything is listed in this column is my relative. The ailment listed? Chronic diarrhea.
^Chronic diarrhea was a death sentence in those days.
I’m hooked on Adultswim games 🙁

You didn’t tweet all of Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Were you busy making videos or what?
He and his irritable bowels made it to 1891.
Actually, I make more from my tweeted ads than the ones on my blogs…
Wait a minute! How is THIS website not blocked from school, but Incompetech is? That is outrageous!!
Yes, this comment is entirely unrelated to the post, but I am angry, and needed to vent a little bit during study hall.
I can’t split my attention that much..and Kevin never followed me on Twitter so life is meaningless.
Just took a beautiful morning poop.
^ You think ALL your shit is beautiful. Why dontcha marry it, huh?
@10 I don’t think that’s legal yet. Probably won’t be too much longer until it is though. Those fecal rights activists are pretty convincing.
@8 He’s never followed me either Jimmer! Considering I’m such an avid Twitter-er-er-er! He’s missing out!
^ I’ve been following you, Jason. What am I? Chopped liver?
:0
See even chopped liver is following you Jason! (Dabs an emo tear)
@11
Now you’ve got me wondering if Nutcheese is a fecal rights activist and if not, why not?
@13 / 14 Haaa! MDJ, you’re my Old Faithful…I can count on you to be there when I send out my first tweet after a year hiatus! Jimmer, turn that frown upside down! 🙂
I think Nut should be crowned the FRA (Fecal Rights Activist) doo-gooder of the year! Hey, CNN’s having a vote for hero of the year…I think they accidentally left her out!
poop
These comments seem to derail from the blog post topic pretty quickly. (But there wasn’t much to discuss about this post anyway…)
I guess it is not without reason that Nalts called the WillVideoForFood back row “some of my bizarre online video fans” during a live interview(?) a couple weeks ago. (Or so says some dude who actually watched it.)
This blog certainly does seem to attract some wonderfully, uh, eccentric individuals.
Kevin, I would love to see a vlog where you talk about some of the unusual people who follow you. (Not me; I’m perfectly normal, got it?)
(By the way, do you even actually read these comments on a semi-regular basis?)
Who the hell is Kevin?
There’s a Kevin on this blog?
Since when?
Oh, That reminds me
@19 There is a certain Kevin Nalty who sometimes shows up.
He’s been around for a while.
@8 @12 He’s actually replied to me but still doesn’t follow. I deal with it by softly crying myself to sleep each evening while constantly refreshing his latest video in the hopes that one day my contribution may help Charlie be able to attend a modestly priced junior college.
@13 I follow you Marquis, but am admittedly afraid to click on any of the links you post.
@21 Same here. He has mentioned/replied to me a few times but doesn’t follow me. I think NutCheese might be following me though.
@20 That’s not Nalts. It’s Nutcheese in drag.
@21
Afraid?
Don’t be a light weight.
🙂
@Alexis I don’t follow you. I get enough of your annoying comments here to satisfy me.
@25 Are you sure about that? I don’t use my real name on Twitter so how do you know I’m not one of the 136 people you follow?
@25: But you love ME, right Nutcheese?
@27 Marylinn… you know I love YOU!!! Will you bitch slap Alexis please?
@28 Hey! What did I do to deserve a bitch slap?
Marilyn, everybody loves you. Some of us even spell your name correctly.
Did you poop today?
http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=home#/photo.php?pid=90492&id=100000136807107
@30 No. I think I did yesterday or maybe it was the day before yesterday…I don’t really keep track.
So you think that’s why NutCheese doesn’t like me?
^Probably, Alexis. Nutcheese likes folk who stay on top of their poop.
