Eefoof Now VuMe
Eefoof changed to VuMe.com (“view me”). Company has Revver-like ad sharing model but never really worked out for me or others I know. If you’ve had any luck making money on Eefoof or VuMe please comment.
TechCrunch’s Marshall Kirpatrick reports that YouTube tomorrow will unveil a number of branded commercial channels– including a Paris Hilton channel being featured on the homepage. This is a surprising and encouraging move from a video site that hasn’t shown any other interesting way to profit from its incredible appeal. Fox has paid an undisclosed sum…
Would you trust your corporate or personal brand to strangers via UGC (user generated content)? I don’t mean the “conversations,” but the actual logo of the brand. Well I did, and it paid off! I made a video and tweeted last month inviting people to submit NaltsConsulting logos (offered a $100 prize for the winner),…
Do you vlog? Then YOU might be dull enough for television. TV Diaries, a sparse but new blog, claims to be building a show with The Conlin Company, who is behind such reality-hits as “Hell’s Kitchen” and “Nanny 911.” Says this post: We’re seeking Emotional Exhibitionists who have nothing to hide. If you can entertain,…
There are some nice nuggets in this piece by Robyn Tippins in AllBusiness.com. It’s titled “10 Ways to Succeed at Viral Video.” I especially like Robyn’s advice to gain student “thought leaders” to test and gain initial traction. And her willingness to “start over” if something doesn’t get a good early response. I rarely do…
Who are the best daily video bloggers (vloggers) on YouTube? Where can you find the most interesting video creators? I have no idea, but check these folks out. The only daily vlogger who hunts GHOSTS Someone who is making multiple sclerosis “her bitch“ A dude who apparently drinks a lot of Red Bull and says…
Let’s say you’re the interactive marketer for Dove. You finally sold your management on the concept of inviting people to make ads for a contest viral video! They said they were afraid of what people may enter. But you said, “don’t worry… if it’s not appropriate we won’t feature it.” And then this video ends…

I havn’t even had success on revver… I need $20 It’s hard enough trying to bring in 50 cent a month.
How am I going to feed my poor helpless children?
How in Christ’s name can someone like VuMe pull in the traffic it would take to pay anyone at this stage of the game?
I mean, seriously, I’m just asking.
When their graphics guy was designing the little “make it, post it, profit!” thing… when he got to “profit” was he laughing, crying, or a bit of both?
And, uh, sorry for dragging Christ into it.
vume still has the same static ,no-paying ads they had months ago,and they had an overheated cpu caused by a dead fan,im not joking,just follow my link,its on their front page.Also,you cant turn off comments and anyone can put any “tag” they choose on your media.what a friggen joke!
Vume is a joke imho. Why on earth would they launch the site and show a half dead programmer talk about how much work they put into it. For all I care it looks like they put about a weeks worth of work as its no where close to what I was expecting. You would think they would do more with the $225k angel fund they received late last year. Best of luck to them.
Hey guys, I’m the half dead programmer. Thanks for your input on the site. We did have an overheated CPU, it’s a resource intensive site, and we had a big flux of traffic – fairly common growing pains of a new site.
The community tagging system means that media gets tagged accurately. The top most common tags per media are used as decided by the community.
Surprising as it may seem, it does take longer than a week to develop a media sharing site from the ground up. Several in fact. Nor is it a finished product…if that’s even possible for a website. We’re constantly striving to enhance and improve.
Keep checking in and watch it grow and you may change your mind about it.
