Out of the Office Post
I was getting bummed about the landslide decline in WVFF readers. Then someone explained that it’s summer vacation. Yeah- that’s it. Summer vacation. Let me know when you’re back, eh?
Are you back yet?

Thanks, MrHogg. My feelings exactly. My Best Buy strike (driven by my horrible experience with the Geek Squad) took a one-day hiatus when I couldn’t find a power cord for my Mac. It was torture walking through that place, and it gave me greater resolve to continue my strike. I would imagine Best Buy has…
Well it’s been a busy week for NaltsConsulting (more on that name soon), which includes a lot of NYC networking at Onfronts, NewFronts, Diggnation, and this Friday’s OMMA. So let’s recap the most awkward moments so far (although perhaps we can top these on Friday). The common thread is that I can’t resist being immature,…
Jason Glickman, an Internet advertising veteran with expertise in emerging interactive technologies, was a little late to predict 2007. So the CEO of Tremor Media decided to predict online video for 2008. Read his predictions in MediaPost’s Online Video Insider. Here are his predictions with my commentary: 1. Video goes vertical. Surely vertical sites (specialized…
Want some indigestion and entertainment? Look no further than YouTube chefs. Courtesy of Mike VideoEditGuy, it’s Time magazine explores chefs — ranging from a 95-year-old lady who grew up in the depression to a head-banging vegan chef. And Harley, the EpicMealTime guy who gives “Man vs. Food” a run for its calories. Who hasn’t heard of candy…
… when maybe one person will read it for every 10,000 people that watch my videos? Oh- I remember now. It’s the profit from the ads I sell around these words.
As promised, here’s the edited version of the dramatic drive to the hospital yesterday from my anaphylactic fit. Here’s the background post for some context.

Im still here 🙂
Anything you care to read about? I’m taking requests at this point.
Most your stuff is really good (you are top 15 on my feed list)
Personally, Id like you to take a look at Second Life and similar games, there is a whole load of video stuff in there & massive potential
Mobile video
Monetization and promotion
Using video for spamming/hoaxing and link baiting
Quick tricks to make better video.
Detailed case studies of virals (like the trojan games for example)
My favourite stuff is the tips, how tos, monetization/ promotion stuff. The general news is already everywhere.
Dont worry too much about the traffic (unless its paying your bills), the best sites are never the busiest, just keep a focus on the quality 🙂
I can email you a few tips to get the traffic flowing again if you like.
whoops, any chance you can remove the username up there pls ?
Hey Mike, do you ever read a magazine called ‘Limo Driver’ put out by Bobit Publishing in Torrance? I used to paginate that magazine. Bobit puts out ‘School Bus Driver’, too. Fascinating reads (sarcasm).
Mike, what is this link baiting? Sounds like something I wanna do.
Thanks- MikeStar. Great comments.
No probs, but Nalts, could you remove the link & username (see post 4) thats not me! I was just logged in for a client at the time and didnt realise.
No, never read it, but i will look at it. 🙂 thanks
Link baiting = performancing.com/node/38
Oh yeah, I do that all the time. Never knew it had a name. I’m a linkbaiter and didn’t know it. Thanks.
I think I did it. If not- tell me again what to do (like I’m a child)
Surf the weblogs, read one or two posts, comment something that looks halfway relevant (making sure your screenname is linked back to your own blog). Basically, blog spamming, but no direct plea to come and see whatever. If you make your comment curious enough, they’ll have to click on your screenname and get brought to your blog.
I’ve seen your comments all over the internet, Kevin. You’re a linkbaiter.
Yeah, Perfect Thanks. 🙂
You really want to put this site on your own domain too if you can. Long term its well worth it.
I’m here, and I want you to run some how-to stuff for me, so I don’t have to figure it all out myself. Get right there into the dirt of it. Show me something clever in editing, in video storytelling. Show me how you set up shots for best viewing on a small screen versus a monitor, versus both screens with the same piece of film.
Your site is a must-read. I love everything I learn here.
This is great stuff. I have all of these notes on a “sticky note” on my Google homepage. Appreciate the feedback.
Anon- can you suggest an easy way to host this blog on my own server? I am dying to be able to manipulate the code and run Google analytics. But I’m kinda low tech so it’s got to be pretty easy.
Thanks,
KN
Yeah, sure, Ill mail you some details. 🙂
