What is This Blog?
“Farting in Public” was just featured on the homepage of YouTube (thanks, editors!). This is my second time featured (last was for Viral Video Genius). So this is a brief post to explain WillVideoForFood.com to curious YouTubers. To read about “Farting in Public” and Spencer, visit this recent post. To see Spencer’s sequel watch “Ugly Caricatures.”…
Great Trivia on American Presidents
A classic video from ZackScott that gives us information about the American Presidents that you wouldn’t have learned in history class. Zack is one of my favorite online comedians. Watch for the subtle gestures and timing between facts. Is this hysterical, or is it just the Haldol in my meds? I need to stop buying from Nigerian pharmacies.
Contests That Require Registration to Vote
Ahhh the video contest. Is it a way to engage creators, or for marketers to do “lead gen” (snatch the e-mail address of creators’ friends)? I understand why contests require registration for rating — we wouldn’t want a “Chicago” style election. At the same time, these “one-off” contest websites are maddening. For example, here’s a…

Well, what can I say… a very very old trick?
I first saw this thing about 6 years ago in Venice where local gypsies were selling them as toys on the street… we didn’t know what it was at first but then acquired one (they were almost free) and made a thorough inspection… yup, some flour and a condom.
While you were handlng the stress toys they were patting you down in admiration. And taking your wallet. Not all gypsies steal, but all theifs are gypsies.
Check out the comments to read about the hilarious buying experience. LOL. I love the video.
Yeah, I love the video too. If only MetaCafe users felt the same. My newest video is great too (to me). It is my highest-dugg video ever on Digg, but I think MetaCafe users hate it.

I love the fruit facts one. You have no shortage of great ideas. And I see a theme with the condoms and the bananas and the cucumbers and the carrots… Next for Zack. The history of pickles.
