Nutcheese, among the first to discover my videos and promote them to her friends, assembled some of my favorite YouTube peeps for this birthday video. Some “FOL” (fart outloud) moments, and I’m extremely grateful for the time, humor, talent and familiar faces contained here.
It’s a reminder that YouTube is more than a video-sharing site, but a great big, wonderful, dysfunctional family.
“Kevin just does a great job of bringing together the advertising perspective and creator perspective of social media and online video,” says Daisy Whitney, Queen of Online Video, in reference to this blog. Whitney is now working with iMediaConnection, which was news to me during this week’s “This Week in Media“ (I’m one of two…
There’s no question that traditional media tends to characterize online video — and YouTube in particular — as a cute fad. Certainly the bulk of the stories are about the “one hit wonders,” Internet clichés, and sensational hits like Chris Crocker, Sneezing Pandas, laughing babies and Star Wars Kid. When I saw some recent Comedy…
I’ve decided to write a book on viral video — aimed primarily at marketers and advertisers since amateur videographers and film makers don’t have enough money to buy books. Naturally I haven’t written a book before, but I sometimes read them. So I figure I’m pretty qualified. The working title is: “The Profit (Prophet) of Viral…
Two women fight and pull each other’s hair (and potentially hair extensions) on a Brooklyn subway this week… And I’m proud to be an American, where at least I know I’m free… Are you SERIOUS? For Real. Let ’em come. Meanwhile the baby’s stroller just rolls off the train in the midst of it… yey…
You’ve seen the videos with someone hiding in a garbage can and trying to scare the piss out of a garbage man. Here’s my attempt. The ending hurts.
TechCrunch’s “2010 year in review” featured CableTV as a “loser.” It had a funeral. Nobody came. Check it out: Losers: Huzzah! Cable companies are losing more and more subs every month! Victory! Well, sort of. Sure, pay TV companies are having a hard time holding on to subscribers, but that’s only going to mean prices will…

Forty is the new thirty. I know this because I’m thirty, and thirty is the new twenty, and math is fun. Happy birthday, Nalts. 🙂
@1 I’m gonna have to disagree with that. Because that would make 22 the new 12…and that’s just awkward.
HAPPY BDAY KEV-BO!

what’s it like to be, ya know, so old?
ah, finally another good collab around here. It’s been a while. I see that Jawharp’s ukeleleing is still as annoying as ever in these things, and Zipster is still as wacky, and PeterCoffin is still doing them all the time…
wait. That’s not right! Was PeterCoffin SERIOUSLY in a collab? Why, it seems like just yesterday he was badmouthing them mercilessly on here!
Anyway, happy 40th Nalts, from your favorite usual commenter that you probably find incredibly irritating, annoying and unpleasant, but are too polite to say anything about it, Reubnick.
I just left you a message on Facebook. Facebook is the new YouTube.
You’re not THAT old, Kevin, but I still think it’s time for you to grow up.
You think you’re so cool cause you get to go to Bermuda for your 40th. Well, for my 40th, I went to Kazakhstan. So there.
‘Wait. Somehow that jab didn’t come out quite as snotty as I thought it would.
I was with Julia Roberts on Catalina Island for my 40th.
@7 Wifeofnalts lives there.
@8 Kazakhstan? Is that were Boris shot that movie?
@9 Julia’s always blogging about her days getting driven around as a call girl between Pretty Women and Ocean’s 11.
@10: I sent her a friend request. Tell her to friend me, please.
I was hiding in a dark dark room with a bottle of wine and my high school yearbook on my 40th. I cried and cried and…
Aww who am I kidding..
@f0
Yup. That’s kazakhstan’s claim to fame. It’s also where hank was born.
A piece of advice for you world travelers. Never go to kazakhstan.
