Out of the Office Post
I was getting bummed about the landslide decline in WVFF readers. Then someone explained that it’s summer vacation. Yeah- that’s it. Summer vacation. Let me know when you’re back, eh?
Are you back yet?

Last I checked this blog was the #1 ranked for the terms “tigger punch” on Google. I’m so proud of that I decided to take a moment from our vacation to shoot this quick video of my kids… afraid of going to Disney because they might run into Tigger.
Hey it’s Friday. With only one more day before the Apocalypse/Rapture begins, here are some last-minute things you can do. Hey, if you’ve been procrastinating, don’t worry. These are fairly quick ones.
Before I give you a marvelous collection of YouTube secrets, a quick aside. They say you can tell a lot about a person by the company he keeps. Could it be said that a lot can be told about your blog by the search terms that brought people to it? Check out these classy terms…
Charmin’s UK features references to a bunch of the euphamisms for pooping. Pictured here is someone “dropping a log.” My favorite is granny saying she “needs to sink the brown one” as she plays pool.
Well, I couldn't have seen this coming if I had a Deep Throat at Google… In a test, Google Video will serve ads for about 2,000 videos from 8 providers. Advertisers will select the videos on which to advertise their products through a combination of banner ads and 15-second video ads (at the end of…
Nice piece by ZeFrank on copyright law, YouTube, and Creative Commons. It’s not as funny as his normal daily blog, but very informative. Raises some important issues about consumer-generated videos and the implications of profit, copyright law and Adam Curry who steals stuff.

Anything you care to read about? I’m taking requests at this point.
Most your stuff is really good (you are top 15 on my feed list)
Personally, Id like you to take a look at Second Life and similar games, there is a whole load of video stuff in there & massive potential
Mobile video
Monetization and promotion
Using video for spamming/hoaxing and link baiting
Quick tricks to make better video.
Detailed case studies of virals (like the trojan games for example)
My favourite stuff is the tips, how tos, monetization/ promotion stuff. The general news is already everywhere.
Dont worry too much about the traffic (unless its paying your bills), the best sites are never the busiest, just keep a focus on the quality
I can email you a few tips to get the traffic flowing again if you like.
whoops, any chance you can remove the username up there pls ?
Hey Mike, do you ever read a magazine called ‘Limo Driver’ put out by Bobit Publishing in Torrance? I used to paginate that magazine. Bobit puts out ‘School Bus Driver’, too. Fascinating reads (sarcasm).
Mike, what is this link baiting? Sounds like something I wanna do.
Thanks- MikeStar. Great comments.
No probs, but Nalts, could you remove the link & username (see post 4) thats not me! I was just logged in for a client at the time and didnt realise.
No, never read it, but i will look at it.
thanks
Link baiting = performancing.com/node/38
Oh yeah, I do that all the time. Never knew it had a name. I’m a linkbaiter and didn’t know it. Thanks.
I think I did it. If not- tell me again what to do (like I’m a child)
Surf the weblogs, read one or two posts, comment something that looks halfway relevant (making sure your screenname is linked back to your own blog). Basically, blog spamming, but no direct plea to come and see whatever. If you make your comment curious enough, they’ll have to click on your screenname and get brought to your blog.
I’ve seen your comments all over the internet, Kevin. You’re a linkbaiter.
Yeah, Perfect Thanks.
You really want to put this site on your own domain too if you can. Long term its well worth it.
I’m here, and I want you to run some how-to stuff for me, so I don’t have to figure it all out myself. Get right there into the dirt of it. Show me something clever in editing, in video storytelling. Show me how you set up shots for best viewing on a small screen versus a monitor, versus both screens with the same piece of film.
Your site is a must-read. I love everything I learn here.
This is great stuff. I have all of these notes on a “sticky note” on my Google homepage. Appreciate the feedback.
Anon- can you suggest an easy way to host this blog on my own server? I am dying to be able to manipulate the code and run Google analytics. But I’m kinda low tech so it’s got to be pretty easy.
Thanks,
KN
Yeah, sure, Ill mail you some details.
