Most of us are sleepwalking through life… missing great moments because we’re lost in our own thoughts and tasks.
Not me anymore. I woke up. I am Zen. I am enlightened. Stillness Speaks. I am aware.
Join me on my spiritual journey, while commuting to work yesterday.
Revver seems to be attracting a few weblebrities (a term I’ve just coined- feel free to use under creative commons). These include LoneyGirl15, ZeFrank, EepyBird, Ask a Ninja and Dogtoons. When I saw that MC Hammer and Weird Al was on Revver, I asked Revver if it would be pursuing additional 1980s stars like Dr. Ruth,…
When we weren’t having “my dad can beat up your dad” debates as children, we had the “Burger King versus McDonalds” debate. Of course, now I go wherever my kids tell me because they’re not going to eat a thing anyway until the meal toys are edible. But the WillVideoForFood 2008 “Fast Food Online-Video Award”…
My dad just sent me this… a Wikipedia entry for me. Let’s be clear. I didn’t pull an Adam Curry and create that listing for myself (or I would have used Nalts or Viral Video Genius of course). But thanks whoever put this up.
This is the most amazing reaction I’ve had to “Beyond Viral” (a book I published via David M. Scott and Wiley last fall). Here’s Moomay’s dog Jack devouring the content.
BusinessWeek Technology Writer Catherine Holahan writes about the “raising bar on viral web ads.” My favorite part of the article is that it turned me on to this viral campaign for Axe (called Ravenstoke). Here are some other highlights. Video viral marketing—so named because it relies on computer users to spread commercials from person to…
So the NextUp YouTube winners are in NYC right now… receiving loads of love from Google/YouTube. It made me happy seeing the next generation of amateurs… and to see that Google/YouTube still encourages them even while commercial content is on the rise on the world’s second-largest search engine. I was invited to speak to the…

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.
