Another article about how becoming a YouTube star can allow you to quit your day job (the Globe and Mail). Take it from a guy who knows this market fairly well… it’s possible but not easy. A few of my friends have quit relatively low-paying jobs to focus 100% on YouTube, but if you’re like…
I don’t mean to gloat, but it seems I’ve been invited to stand as General Ibrahim Moussa’s next of kin, and I’ll receive $20 million. At first I thought maybe it was spam, but since they’ve addressed me as “Intending Partner,” I can only conclude this has to do with my viral video fame. Dear…

It’s been seen more than one million times, and is attracting a slew of critical and positive comments. The video is part of the Kremlin’s toughest anti-alcohol campaign, and was released after President Dmitry Medvedev described the…
My sister sent me this elevator photo this morning and titled the e-mail “Nerds.” It’s the crowd going to Macworld. She works for “big media” and they’re interviewing Jobs today.

If Google wants to implant me with a chip, I would let them do it. I don’t care. Mark Zuckerburg said that privacy is dead, and I agree. He said that if he were to create facebook today, there would be no privacy. What are people hiding? privacy is overrated. By the way, if Google want to install a chip in me, they must make me a YouTube partner and put me on the front page of YouTube singing PIGGY IN THE RAIN, PIGGY IN THE RAIN, PIGGY PIGGY PIGGY PIGGY PIGGY IN THE RAIN.
Google is The Matrix. You must eat the Red Pill!
I for one welcome our new Google overlords.
be careful what you wish for
