Send in the Clowns… Star Power Moves to Online Video
ByNalts
I used to find news like this article (about star power being tapped for web video) threatening. Now I find it cute. Because the monetization model doesn’t exist to justify stars. Will Ferrell makes more in an hour than I’ve made in my 2 years and 37 million views. The industry needs to mature a…
Online Video (2010 in sad pictures)
ByNalts
Wowzer how about the peaks and valleys of online video in the past year. I had a peek at Alexa.com to see how some of the smaller independent online-video sites are holding up. Not too well based on traffic. A caveat: Alexa does not capture visitors precisely, or count the embedded views. So these pictures…
Want to Rank on YouTube Search? Keep the Audience.
ByNalts
Update on 10/19/12: Apparently YouTube is counting raw minutes not percent of video as I have indicated. According to this source a video will rank more highly based on total minutes viewed — even above a video with more views that were shorter. YouTube, the second largest search engine, is increasingly following the “Google” approach…
My First Shout Out (boring “history of nalts” post)
ByNalts
Don’t know what a “shout out” is? It’s when you mention someone in your video. Don’t care? Stop reading. This blog entry isn’t for the industry watchers, but for the small group of obscure people that watch my crap. I stumbled into my first “shout out” video recently. In this fake PSA I did about…

YouTube Versus Long Tail
ByNalts
Want to get your stuff seen? Should you obsess with YouTube or go for the “long tail“? Let’s explore this important debate, and obviously the right answer is “do both.” But don’t hold your breath waiting for a million views on YouTube, or kill yourself getting your video on the homepage of some niche blog…

Nalts, you and your family are like a smiling piece of Americana for the 21st Century.
By the way, editing and videos keep getting tighter and tighter. 🙂 YAY!
The absolute funniest part of this is the fact that your family thinks farts are a normal form of communication.
@ ass- Farts aren’t a normal forms of communication?
If I were wifeofnalts I would be smacking you upside the head about 10 times a day.
this is no competition to my new sport, Head Bang Ball. It’s way too complicated to explain what it is, though.
Actually, if I ever felt like filming it, I have a script upstairs for a video about Head Bang Ball. It would probably just be really long and boring, though. Tissues in the Wind wins.
now that’s what I call cheap easy fun!
You know I should just stick with posts like this. The comments are far more entertaining than when I write about the industry for an audience of about 3 people.
Love your PJs, Nalts. The girdle looks so good on you, too.
Also, I’m with sukatra. Do you medicate WoN? Is that why she is always so calm, smiling and tolerant in the face of your pranks and flights of fancy?
We read the industry stuff too!
@9: YOU may; I just skip that stuff unless there are pictures too.
