Reeled In: Porn or Not?
Here’s a funny promo about Reeled In (The Daily Reel) that lives on Funny or Die.

There are loads of social media events, and many YouTube “community gatherings,” meetups and online video events. But the “South By Southwest” of online-video and YouTube is indisputably VidCon. Organized by Hank and John Green (vlogbrothers), the event in 2010 drew hundreds of community members, top “YouTube Stars,” and Nerdfighters (the active people who rally to reduce…
There’s no question that traditional media tends to characterize online video — and YouTube in particular — as a cute fad. Certainly the bulk of the stories are about the “one hit wonders,” Internet clichés, and sensational hits like Chris Crocker, Sneezing Pandas, laughing babies and Star Wars Kid. When I saw some recent Comedy…
Ah the curse of success. It’s so wonderfully evident in these comments reported by TechCrunch today: News Corp. (MySpace) chief operating officer Peter Chernin told company investors today that, “If you look at virtually any Web 2.0 application, whether its YouTube, whether it’s Flickr, whether it’s Photobucket or any of the next-generation Web applications, almost…
Before I start my rant, let me point to a copy of the YouTube video featuring Falcon “Balloon Boy” Heene and family (as seen on Wifeswap). I suspect you may be seeking that. In my opinion, today Twitter became CNN (in the same way CNN’s coverage of Jessica McClure put it on the map). In…
The fickle readers of WillVideoForFood… Back on the rise since a 6/23 plummet but nowhere near the unexplained 6/1 spike. Each bar represents 1 billion readers, by the way.
What do you need to know about online video for 2016? Here’s a convenient “round up” for your viewing pleasure. Mobilization. Mobile advertising is growing 66% and desktop is just 5 percent. What’s interesting to me is that 36% of our time is spent on TV, and 39% of the ad spending is there. But…

completely off topic – if anyone tivo’d the abc show i*caught tonight, nalts dressed as a hick at the 7-7-7 gathering shows up at about minute 26. he’s only there for a half second…
themightythor recorded it. He was showing off Nalts’ part in NutCheese’s Stickam room.
PC – I didn’t see the show – was it worth watching?
Sukatra – Short answer: not really
Long answer: It was a one-hour show dedicated to tracking down the people who shot and posted some viral videos. In one hour, they showed maybe 5 viral videos.
In typical network fashion, they covered very little. I’m guessing here, but it was about:
4.99% telling you what the show is about and that there’s video on the internet
20% setup of the stories by the host with silly graphics and special effects
10% non-interview story background
5% clips from viral videos
10% interviews
20% commercials
30% transitions into and out of commercials: teasers of what’s to come and recaps of what you just saw before they went to commercial
.01% Nalts
The best part (other than the shot of Nalts) was when they talked about the survey they had on their site of which video the public wanted to learn more about. The public spoke, and they spent about 10 seconds giving you a short synopsis.
PC – thanks!
doh!
Youtube trivia: The very, very last word spoken in the recent release “Disturbia” is the word “Youtube.”
That was the best part of the whole movie Marquisdejolie. =)
Post a video nalts. I’m bored.
Nalts, when are you going to start stickin’ it to the man that controls traditional media? High time you updated the themes in the film, “Network.” You are mad as hell, and you’re not going to take it anymore, At least that’s what wifeofnalts said to me on 7-7-7.
Oh maybe I should start antagonizing “old media.” That would endear me to Lauren Michaels and stuff. Hey- does ANYONE have a copy of that iCaught?
Marquis- I love your response to my teeth reference. Be real- you weren’t watching my videos. You picked it up in a tag.
Nalts, thanks for putting this blog together. I just discovered it the other day, and am enjoying it thoroughly… keep up the good work.
Where’s TH?! The kid is missing.
Do we need a UK Amber Alert?
Nalts, all points?
Where in the world is triplehelix?

Last time I watched The Daily Reel it was because the chick is smokin hot…. 🙂
