Breaking News: Video, Mobile & Social Media Trends
At today’s iMediaConnection “Breakthrough Summit” in Vegas, Hitwise’s Bill Tancer (ilovedata.com) told hundreds of leading marketers about three trends based on research of “early adopters.” Tancer will release the data this week on his blog, but here’s what matters: Tancer developed three classifications of “early adopters,” in part by isolating the people who began using…

The Online-Video Creative Barter Economy… 4 Chickens for Your Goat
Wow how’s this for timing? I’m working with some other video creators on what I think will be a very fun and popular parody of video-game violence and legacy PSAs. I sent out a message to some fellow creators and I’ll give you the verbatim quote I used just moments ago: I can’t wait until…
The Female “Barats & Bereta”
I’ve just absorbed the better part of my morning watching Justine and Desiree, a duo that may be the female version of Barats & Bereta. The Pittsburgh comediennes can be seen at mommypackmylunch.com, where they’ve posted 69 videos. My favorite so far is Parkour. Gals- when you’re near Philadelphia, I really need to get you…
YouTubers vs. Apple Tech Support (Power of Online Video Community)
This collaboration video by YouTubers (in which I’m included) is a great example of the power of YouTube’s community. When Xgobobeanx was given the runaround by Mac, her frustration led to this video. As I said in my clip (which appears at the end of this clip), “Apple has an obligation to treat every customer…
Uncle Chuck Had His Eye Removed
I’ll bet you can’t watch this whole video. Uncle Chuck Had His Eye Removed. Half way through, look into a mirror at your face. Is it as contorted as mine was? If you’re brave, you’ll get to the part where he says he’ll drown if he falls into a lake.

Thank you. I thought I was the only dope that took videos while driving. Now I can finally tell my wife I’m not the only one! And I don’t even read!
But seriously, get THEPod (www.thepod.ca). Best in-car gadget I own (and the only one). Works great with the camera and can withstand high-speed turns (with some assistance from one of those little sticky-gel-pad-thingies).
Best part? Everything. Because I’ve done it all (including driving with your teeth and driving off the side of the road while taping).
No teeth on the wheel here, but it’s the favorite in-car video I’ve made:

We finally get to see the man behind the TK initials. Sorry about Uncle Irv.
I’m not sure I can afford a http://www.thepod.ca, but thanks for reminding me about the sticky gel pad. At least that will keep the camera from rolling away. I’ve found the dashboard videos easier than the “hide the camera from the tollbooth guy” ones. In that case I stack a camera on top of a stack of my dry cleaning. It’s very adjustable and usually stays put. Trickiest part is pulling up to the right spot so he’s in frame.
I’ve got all my props together for my YouTube bubble burst video I’m shooting on the drive home. If I don’t upload or post in a while it’s because I swerved off the road trying to make it today.
Wow, Revver must not be paying well. Mine (red version) was only about $20. But you could make your own. It’s nothing more than a mini-beanbag for your camera. Just don’t open them. It’s hell to close them and keep all those beads inside.
Thanks for the condolences. And yes, that was one of my few on-camera scenes. Unlike you, I prefer to stay BEHIND the camera.
Back to my post at work.
