PBS ceded to parents who complained that the Katie Perry & Elmo “Hot and Cold” parody showed a little more skin that kids should see. Was it a calculated media draw, or are parents just over reacting? After all, Elmo is nude.
Here’s the clip, which PBS is permitting Katie to use. But don’t look for it on PBS brought to you by the letters XXX.
I’ll tell you the economics of online video… charging $250.00 clams for a white paper about the space. Probably the only company mentioned in Advertising Age’s report that’s making money is Advertising Age. Someone buy it, and send me a peek.
YouTube stars go live on blog.tv
HappySlip is selling “best of” DVDs, so I had to do it too. I may not be as hot, but at least I’m not as funny. I’m using CreateSpace because it looks easy, and a couple others have used it. Anyone use ’em? I didn’t realize, until I’d started my account this morning, that it’s…
Hubspot presentation about online video for marketing
I've been trying to figure out how YouTube managed to surpass video-sharing sites like Break.com, despite arriving to the market far later. Then it occured to me what may already be obvious to you. Most video sites are searchable television stations… putting the visitor in command to find video that appeals. YouTube, however, is a…
I thought I knew my fellow YouTubers well, but I learned some interesting facts about some of my favorites in a new book by Frederick Levy (see his YouTube channel). Levy covers some famous YouTubers, and me too. There’s a Q&A and some coverage about the NAPPY campaign I had almost supressed. Worth a read…

Maybe they censored her because she has no talent is a marrying a freakazoid.

How about a top-ten list for CENSORED Sesame Street collaborations?

Katy hoping to play dress up with Elmo is disturbing.
hmmm not sure how to feel “katie perry” < is that character, but it IS a kid show… so maybe a different outfit would have been a better choice. and maybe Sesame street should have known and costumed her better…
Ugh. I can’t believe I watched the whole thing.
^ I didn’t
Here’s how to answer this question – would you let your kid dress up and go to school that way?
Dude you have no quran. Umm Katie hangs with LisaNova, and Lisanova was in a video with me. So you’re three degrees of separation from Elmo if you’re reading this.

I’d do her.
