Hey, Peter. Yeah- Peter Justason. The guy I used to work with at Johnson & Johnson. I’m gonna kick your ass on Meskimen’s new cartoon-caption contest. Instead of semi-annual, he’s going for WEEKLY. I will destroy you.
For the rest of you… about 5 years ago before your fancy moving pictures, this was my favorite thing to do on the Internet when The Onion wasn’t fresh. See more at www.appliedsilliness.com.
What’s it take to sustain as a YouTube weblebrity? Going viral is a sprint, but staying vibrant is a marathon. In part one we heard from BrittaniLouiseTaylor about passion, RhettandLink about the power of two, and CharlesTrippy about community. In part two we heard from Michael Buckley, VenetianPrincess, MysteryGuitarman and Happyslip. As VidCon2011 approaches, it’s…
I tried yesterday to talk Ben Relles (Barelypolitical.com and Obama-Girl creator) to make this video, but couldn’t resist doing it myself this morning. It’s a parody of the George Bush interview with NBC’s Richard Engel (the White House this week took offense to “deceitful” editing by the network). Hopefully I’ve offended Bush and journalists equally…

This Content-to-Commerce post revealed some interesting social-media statistics, and prompted me to answer two questions: “Why aren’t digital agencies bringing social-media to clients?” “Why can’t brands seem to overcome their internal inertia?” I have the somewhat rare experience of having seen social media strategy and tactics in various roles: as a marketer (client), client stakeholder…
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…
Indigo Productions did a satire of the JK Wedding Entrance video (scored by Chris Brown, Forever) that went viral in the past weeks. Here’s the background from Yahoo. JK Divorce Entrance Dance @ Yahoo! Video

At least I’m not THAT bad. Although, I don’t NEED an algorithm to sniff out Nalts’ spelling and grammar errors. 🙂
“jimmeskimen has invited you to become friends!”
Heh, maybe he liked my caption.

too late I already kicked your ass on the cartoon
Nalts, thanks for challenging your worthy opponents to the new Cartoon Contest game… it’s going to be a challenge for me, too, to keep the ‘toons rolling out in this new format.
But it seems like a good idea to follow your advice and get this contest up on its feet again.
And thanks too for the very kind write up on the Jibjab interview with Knestor and Evan S. That was very sporting of you.
Your fan,
Jim
