Yahoo Asks for Citizen Created Commercials
CCC. That’s what I call ’em. Others say “consumer generated media,” but open-source ads are a subset of CGM. So here’s Yahoo’s collection of volunteer ads. The grand prize is… um… there’s isn’t a prize. But you’ll win the hearts of Yahoo. So go for it. Best of all, you can send yourself a reminder…

aw. I wish I was on the news. Rest assured, if I were as newsworthy as this, my montage video would probably be 100X more egotistical. That’s some stuff to be proud of there, Nalts.

@4: Definitely NOT a loser. Just a little too full of himself.
Couldn’t get it to stream. This was the worst-streamed video I’ve ever seen. Blip or WordPress?
@6: Worked fine for me.
You have the gift of humility.

Actually I was in the news last week “clicks”
@6 It was blip. Bad blip? @3 Yes I was touching my wee wee.

I’m using the latest version of Firefox, the current version of Flash Player, the latest version of Quicktime and have high speed internet and I still can’t get this video to stream past the intro.
OMG! Isn’t that like the same news clip chopped up into like 50 pieces? I surrendered to your absurdity eons ago!

ok, ok…I liked it! =)
Finally got the player to work. This is a much better trailer than your “Trailer” trailer. Trailer…just like saying that..trailer..

I just switched to Verizon FiOS about a week ago and love it. Today there were cable outages all over the area and I still had Internet.
