This absolutely is my favorite video of 2009. I’ve watched it at least 25 times, and my family is going crazy. Meet “Auto-Tune the News,” and this recent clip: “Murdered with a Spoon.” (Lot of details about the creators below). Isn’t it just so perfectly imperfect!? Do you walk away singing the intro melody over…
Wowzer. Fist fight between members of the media and a neighbor of Balloon Hoax’s Richard Heene. Could this story have any more layers of intrigue?
Deadbeat dads everywhere are celebrating the fact that they’re perhaps not the worst dad in the United States. That title belongs to Richard Heene, who tugged our heartstrings, lied, and made his kid hide in a box for hours… all for publicity. TMZ showed one of the public “smoking guns,” a public profile he created…

Oh wait. I don’t make money on either. So what explains my recent neglect of WillVideoForFood and obsession with Twitter? Maybe because it forces me to be terse.
Online video and rich media create a new model for storytelling and advertising that immerses audiences.
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 was on Hulu this morning looking for the classic Will Ferrell and Christopher Walken “Need More Cowbell” skit. I felt tricked when I was taken to “Funny or Die,” where I found amateur content. Then I got curious about how an amateur got on Hulu. Sure enough two of my videos snuck onto Hulu…
