World’s Stupidest Inventions
This really has nothing to do with online video, but it’s funny. Worst inventions ever FTW.

A crack report by The Washington Post blog reveals that the unicorn caught on tape below is… a covert promotion by The Ontario Science Center. The bogus release (read here) was timed with an exhibition called “Mythic Creatures: Dragons, Unicorns & Mermaids.” According to The Post, a Science Center spokesperson conceded the unicorn sighting may…
I was happy to hear Threadless founder and former CEO Jake Nickell on public radio’s “Markeplace” tonight, and how he was “crowdsourcing” in Threadless’ decade of business… even before there was a name for it. “Last year we paid over $1.5 million out to artists,” he told interviewer Kai Ryssdal. Designers upload their creations, and…
Steve Jobs called it a “non-issue,” but MacWorld did some digging on the widely reported issue: if you hold an iPhone4G in the wrong place you may cover the antenna and have poor reception. We at WillVideoForFood also did some digging, and found a creative way to hold your iPhone to ensure clear reception. You’ll…
Landsend tweets on landsendchat but brother gets the freebees? Common- what about the nephew!?
A couple deer (fawns to be precise) wandered a Publix supermarket in Suwannee, Georgia. The noises of the frustrated fawns (see YouTube video below) sounds freakishly human. In an moment guilty of at least two cases of irony, James Chronicle — a founder of a Suwanee-based non-profit called the Georgia Animal Protection Society — “chronicled” the…
Let’s face it. Social media, like digital marketing initially, has been overhyped. We don’t even need any more “social media” gurus in 2011. We just need executives and marketers who understand the channel well enough to be realistic, patient and smart. We’ve been asking “what?” and “why?” for several years now, and the big questions…

That toilet putting green is brilliant!
OK, the beating breasts were just creepy, but what’s so stupid about a marshmallow shooter? It’s a classic cubical warfare toy.
The Peter Petrie Egg Separator, baby cage and Hubbard Screamometer were kinda creepy.
Youtube’s streaming really sucks the last 36 hours. Are they cutting corners? Saving bandwidth for the big boys? Trying to turn a fourth quarter profit?
@4 I haven’t noticed. Probably because my internet connection is being really slow lately.
My connection speed was a blistering 11 KB/sec earlier today.
I’d upgrade, but I’m locked in to whatever contract my apartment complex has with the Internet Service Provider.
I think the coolest invention is the Priarrius or the Ferrarius or whatever you want to call it in your latest video!
I think Jo needs one of those fake baseball cracked thru the window decals next!
I can’t believe people noticed the priarrius. The previous owner put those on. I kinda like ’em. 😉
Didn’t notice the Pruriasius, but DID see the Cryptocephalus. Cool!
I remember when Kevin shut down his Revver blog (Revverberation). It was just like this. He slowed down his posts. Then stopped. Then announced it “went dark” after he set up this one.
@9 Kind of sad isn’t it. His hair blog hasn’t been updated recently either (in fact, it’s been over a month).
His video uploads have slowed down significantly too. Remember when he would upload a video every time you poop? I don’t know about you, but I think I’ve probably pooped more than 5 times this month.
@10
Oh, I always uploaded twice as much as he ever did. He got more views, but I worked harder. I’ve uploaded nearly 2,000 videos (and deleted half of them, the worst ones). Kevin has always been laissez-faire about quantity. Remember his Get Fit channel? Nobody else does, either. Hahaha! No, if you wanna hear from Kevin these days, you gotta tweet him. Hey, it’s twick or tweet season….

@11 Of course I remember naltsgetsfit. Kevin seems to have forgotten about it though.
Well, like I said before, I’ve seen it before. First he was all Revver, all the time. Then he dropped that for the wider genre of viral video. Now he’s gone social networking. C’mon, Kevin, I know you’re working on a social networking feed out there somewhere, maybe in Pahrump.
