Video enthusiast, Chris Pirillo, is about to marry. In his blog he ponders about what his child might look like. I have my answer in this photo. I dunno. This baby has his wife’s smile, but someone else’s eyes. What do you think, sports racers?
Is NBC beginning to understand and embrace the vehicle it once squashed? It’s considering providing video moments of SNL rehearsals via the web. Brilliant. Says The Daily Reel: The very idea that rehearsals could be deemed as funny — or even funnier — than the actual production speaks not only to our changing predilection for…
Home Purchasing Club is a new web-only video series by cast members of Saturday Night Live, The Groundlings, Napoleon Dynamite, The Drew Carey Show and Office Space. Spoofing ridiculous home shopping network segments, HPC just launched its first episode as part of VH1’s V-Spot player on and will premiere new episodes on the site every…
Until this video I’ve rolled my eyes at net neutrality. Once the genie is out of the bottle, how can you not have complete freedom of expression online? This video challenged that thought by drawing off the history of print, radio and television. Could AT&T and other providers control the web and decides what gets…
I’m really tempted to have my buying agency call YouTube to ask about price and demos, then blog about it. It’s not appropriate and I won’t do it, but I’m still tempted. What’s the profile? I think I read it skews male and has a higher average age than you’d think. But what about median…
Courtesy of the MediaMoGirl blog, I give you one of the funniest timely satires I’ever . It’s a “Lost Seinfeld Episode” done by National Lampoon. This parody video combines classic Seinfeld clips with actual footage of Michael Richards’ rascist rant at the Laugh Factory. It also includes some of the Letterman appearance. I can’t imagine…
It’s conventional knowledge that Ambien causes a mild “black out” period if you don’t go to sleep when you take it. It also makes you gorge carbs. Last night I popped a delicious Ambien and got settled into bed. Just before dozing off to the final episode of Prison Break, I decided to check e-mail….
I’m a big fan of Revver because it splits ad revenue. Maybe you are too. But this guy has us both topped. See the Ultimate Revver Fan. He pits Revver against YouTube and Google Video in this weird and amusing rant. This just in! Visit the Revver blog and you’ll see three videos. Play them…
This certainly isn’t the only cause-driven use of viral video, but I thought I’d showcase it as further proof that online videos don’t have to be funny and profitable. A neighbor of ours (whose kids play with our kids) is on a mission to help save and improve lives of animals who are left at…
In keeping with the tradition of yesterday’s Metacafe post, here’s another shameless self promotion. I’m a top finalist for the Butterfinger video contest. I’m not sure what the prize is, but I want to win this thing. I’m so sick of being a finalist and not getting a prize. So how about voting for “Eviction…
