Below is “YouTube in 1985,” a video collaboration Matt Kobal. I had never heard of Matt before he asked if I’d play the role of a YouTube billing agent. The video depicts an imaginary 1985-version of YouTube. For the record, I had that much hair and more but spent my time drinking at the New Orleans World Fair, not working…
After shunning the Diet Coke & Mentos wave (see “more” for details about that), Coke seems to be “getting in touch with its inner YouTube,” according to this AdWeek article. Says the article: “In the first challenge, set to run through August, users are invited to submit short videos, but they’re not limited to creating…
I asked folks on the Yahoo Videoblogging group if they knew of good sites that review online video software. Josh Kinberg suggested FreeVlog.com.
