Patton Oswalt, one of my absolute favorite comedians, rants about YouTube on this Comedy Central “Root of All Evil” video excerpt.
Good to know he’s watching.
Hey, Patton… Forget the sneezing Panda bear. I think Farting in Public rival Citizen Kane.
Time's pick of 10 videos that have exploded on the web. Interesting that the "cheerleader through the basketball hoop" has been brought down from YouTube.
Last week I wrote 8 tips for independent filmmakers to use the web to promote their work and earn money via the ad-revenue-sharing online video sites. The ideas came from some of the discussions I had with filmmakers when I spoke at the Independent Feature Project event in NYC. Here’s a great case study. Austin…
Review of Mac’s new shuffle with remote-controlled headphones and voice control… this video explores this new device and gives it thumbs down.
Earlier this week I meant to sent my photo to Alexandra of TheDailyReel. Instead I accidentally sent it to Alex (the tatoo lady) at Revver. This is what I get for it. It’s a couple photos of Revver’s Micki (head of community) and Steven Starr (Revver’s mascot) appearing with my big head. I did speak…
My neice had a sleep over last night and asked me how her “LonelyGirl15 is Real” video was doing. In this video, my neice played the role of a 1998 Bree (LonelyGirl15). The footage was filtered to give it a dated quality, and the “young Bree” is seen with a young Daniel who is casually…

You may call me a Neanderthal, but I like to think I’m a “medium-fast follower.” So here’s my social media “Keeping Up With the eJones” history (at a Glance): In 1991 my…

I like Patton and I love Lewis Black, but I hate the other guy and I don’t think this show is gonna last. And if the only video this guy can cite is the sneezing panda, he’s not enough of a youtuber to do commentary about it. Even if it’s supposed to be a joke.
Oh my God. What is happening to me?
I like Patton too! Search for his Stella Dora breakfast treats skit and his conversation with George Lucas skit.
I first heard Patton on XM and immediately researched him and wrote him a note. He wrote me back, and I’ll probably never forget that. Now I try to respond to every message personally. Oh, no. I don’t do that at all do I?
He’s right, though. A lot of what is on YouTube is junk and I can’t understand why it gets views. And then there’s Nalts, Viral Video GENIUS.
i don’t believe him.
We invaded Iran already? I thought that was scheduled for Sweeps Week.

We invaded Iran already? I thought that was scheduled for Sweeps Week.
You have it wrong, MDJ. We invade Iran during the Democratic convention.
That can’t be right, Marilyn. We’ll be invading Democrats that week.
