Video Winners of “The Office” Promotion

ByNalts

Here’s a page sporting the fine winners of the “Create Your Own Promotion” contest. NBC’s “The Office” gave amateurs 19 seconds to get your point across, and some very creative people made great use of that tight window. A few are obviously more than amateurs. Since NBC hasn’t itself figured out internet video viewing 101,…

Bus Uncle: I have PRESSURE

ByNalts

I've always maintained that web video can't be longer than 30 seconds to 2 minutes, but this 6-minute clip (Bus Uncle) provide otherwise- it will entertain you silly and you'll soon be quoting it. Some poor 23-year-old in a Hong Kong bus tapped the shoulder of a real estate agent who was talking loudly on…

Save Old Media: Katie Couric

ByNalts

I caught some video of Katie Couric at the Nov. 16 Foundation Awards held by the International Radio and Television Society Foundation, Inc. YouTube’s community received a 2007 Foundation Award — putting it in a league with David Letterman, Donald Trump and Dick Clark. More on that tomorrow. Katie presented a Foundation Award to Kimberly…

Seth Godin is Wrong About “Ads as Online Tip Jar”

ByNalts

I’ve had a few people tell me they click on my YouTube ads to help make me some money. However the ads are mostly “CPM,” or “cost per thousand.” So the advertiser pays a fixed amount (say $20) for 1,000 InVideo ads regardless of whether people engage or not. The clicks do nothing for me….

“One World” Has Palms Across Globe with Permanent Markers

ByNalts

MadV— the masked street magician who does tricks to hip-hop music — is back after a 6-month hiatus with “One World.” The video invites YouTubers to respond with something written on their hands. MadV was on several video sites (and once dominated the “most popular” section of Revver for weeks), and then vanished because of…

  5. hey, that’s the same blazer and shirt as the happyslip video… did you go to new york from PA to record for Fox Friends Philadelphia?

  7. I’m not trying to start a whole Fox News is biased debate, but I’m used to news shows where reporters and anchormen do not give their own personal opinion during news and interviews. It was kind of weird for them to start off the report/interview saying that they think it’s bad for YouTube to be sharing in ad revenue.

    Also, how were you not nervous?

  8. Yes, he’s right. Just before bringing you on telling us that they think people shouldn’t get paid for their videos then introducing you, it was a bit out of order.

    It would of been ace if you had said, “before we start I think newsreaders shouldn’t get paid for reading the news…”

    Haheeeey.

  12. What’s up with the female reporter saying “i don’t think they should get paid”! ha… how about you do your reporting for free, bit**! lol… anyway, congrats on the news bit!

    I think the only time Nalts is nervous is when he’s *not* in front of a camera!

  15. Nalts looks like a fat, young John Lithgow.

    Woodblock you’re right. That’s why I’m never without a camera.

    Mark- feel free to keep the abuse here.

    Trip/marquis- my favorite part of the day is reading your posts.

    Oh- and PC. YES I shot them both in the same day- morning in Philly and afternoon and evening in NYC. In fact, I’m terrified because there were some lunatics making a video on Times Square and I got on camera. They were women wearing rockets between their legs and protesting the war.

  21. Cool nalts =) gane check the most of your content on youtube tomorrow at work.. should keep me busy for a while 😀
    Best of luck

  23. We all have been betrayed since 1950. Now its “payback time” Trust me on this one. As a country, we are running out of gas. Yes, maybe just fumes. Who’s fault is this? Answer: Washington D.C.
