CNET’s Web 2.0 Blog Author Caroline McCarthy reports on Dabble… A small start-up is trying to take over that niche. Lifehacker, the Gawker Media-owned tips-and-tricks blog, recently steered its readers to Dabble, a beta search engine that claims to be able to paw through data from nearly 250 video hosting sites, as well as a…
In a brave move by Will Ferrell, Adam McKay and their gang, Funny or Die has finally moved its content to YouTube. The FunnyorDie website has always had an identity-crisis. It certainly wasn’t a sage financially-driven move, but a fantastic creative outlet for spontaneous and risque comedy by Ferrell, McKay and friends. It was a…
I’ve made my career never winning a contest, but placing as a finalist in many. So I believe I can speak with some authority in saying that most contest sites suck. That can be for a number of reasons: the prizes aren’t right, the theme is too rescrictive, the site is easy to forget about,…
I really like this piece titled “Four Reasons to Shut Up on Twitter,” and actually read the entire iMediaConnections piece despite the need to advance pages several times to read it all. Madhuri Shekar (a Sony pictures intern) provides some wisdom (some from a 140 conference) about brand best and worst-practices of Twitter, and some…
I didn’t care much when some of the online video sites retired “consumer generated” accounts, and killed my Nalts channels. Metacafe, Revver, Yahoo video, Google video. But I’ve been rooting for the Blip.tv underdog since its infancy. So when I learned today they deleted my account, I felt totally betrayed. Blip.tv is now owned by…
Had enough of horrible big-media interviews of your favorite online-video “weblebrities”? The same questions over and over? The 7 hours you spend, as a video creator, meeting with a television network, only to find your interview has been reduced to a 12-second soundbite? Well it’s time for The Bubblegum Tree Show! Yey! (See trailer). It’s…

He loses his cool, but his responses leading up to his tirade are amazing. Completely off the wall. Hilarious.
What do you want from a guy who wore a vial of Angelina Jolie’s blood around his neck.
Looks like he’s had a psychotic break.
I am really impressed with the demeanor of the host. The man is a consummate pro.
I think it’s fake.
This feels very, very, very FAKE. PerezHilton yesterday, probably bought and paid for. I hope you got some coin Nalts! 🙂
I can’t tell whether it’s serious or not, although frankly I think billy bob is too full of himself to do this kind of self-mockery.
I really don’t care if this is fake or real. I personally think it’s BB fucking with this guy. I don’t think it’s self-mockery at all.
I’m usually good at spotting a fake, and I’m going to say it’s real. Because if it was fake, they would have pushed it just a few notches more. A good idea to get press, though.
After your video mocking the mockery I moseyed over to the Billy Bobs music videos and, let me first say, I’m no country music aficionado, but these guys sounded at best like a good hillbilly bar band.
And precisely, how can it not come up indeed, this band would be a blip without Billy Bobs other success, we don’t live in a vacuum and it strikes me Billy’s not stupid, so I think this was a set up, he was playing with the interviewer, ikes and can afford to be a smart ass.
Whatever it was, it got him his blip and a good chuckle.
There was only one thing that made me think it might be real, as sukatra said arrogance, the other band members looked like they were scared shitless.
So, well played boxcutters or some people will put up with anything for a little coat tail fame.
