More Video Views Than People Living in Top 20 US Cities?
ByNalts
When I think about uploading a video to YouTube, I envision five audiences: The people I know in online video- fellow creators and members of the online-video community. Permanent record: is the video going to be a tattoo I might regret? Will it cause my kids or family any embarrassment that I haven’t already inflicted? The folks…
Murketing is a New Word. Let’s Use it Correctly.
ByNalts
NewTeeVee refers to Rampenfest as murketing and Newsweek recently used the term to refer to the BWM GINA campaign. I may be wrong, but I believe murketing is starting to be used to refer to the “advertorial-like” corruption of marketing and entertainment. That’s not its origin. The fairly new term was coined by Rob Walker in his book, Buying In:…
How to Bust Cheats in Viral Video

What’s the fine line between marketing your video and cheating? Comotion Group cofounder Dan Ackerman Greenberg certainly dances along that gray area between marketing and cheating. In this self aggrandizing article on TechCrunch, Greenberg boasts about how he’s getting clients views (thanks to InsideVideo for helping me find this one). His techniques fall into three…
When Free-to-Paid Transition is Uncool (“pulling a Ning”)
ByNalts
I’m a capitalist. There I said it. I like free, but I respect fee-based services for valuable solutions. Innovators should get paid, and heavy users should open their wallets. There are two ways to transition between free and paid: fair and uncool. Let’s examine two models for each, and explain why Ning (who failed at…

Revver Update… Newness Ahead
ByNalts
Yesterday I joined a small group of online video creators to speak with Revver via conference call. We shared some of our technical concerns, and Revver provided some updates about what’s ahead. As the market grows more competitive, Revver has become cautious about sharing specifics. But Micki (Director of Revver Community and editor of The…

One of the cast of that TV sitcom (Grady) used to push his shopping cart full of aluminum cans past my Cochran Street bedroom window every morning on his homeless way to the recycling center. Sometimes I’d wave at him.
You should have had them steal your package instead of your head. Oh wait, probably not a good idea. Wouldn’t have been visible in the photo.
Please Nalts, I beg of you, stop updating so much. My Google reader is being overrun with 4-6 new entries every day. I feel like I’m being spammed. Is it possible to only receive your video’s through RSS instead of EVERYTHING! ?
While Lamont and Pop fondling your melon is quite an amusing spectacle, I must correct you on one point:
Technically, it’s not a “decapitated head.” Your body, having the head removed, would be the part of you which was decapitated. Your head, bald or otherly adorned, minus the rest of you, would thus be described as “discorporated.”
But, as Nigel Tufnel said, “That’s just nitpicking, isn’t it?”
Shoutout to renetto!
Marquis- you knew GRADY!? I loved Grady. Was he homeless before or after the show?
That’s just creepy Cojack!
Red Fox looks like he’s thinking “Hmm! I’m gonna take home. I got a great recipe for deep fried nalts head”
@6 Kevin
Yeah. After the show. Early 90’s. Conan O’Brien revitalized Grady’s career (life?) in the mid 90’s with a “Where’s Grady” series of sketches.
So what? Last week they stole my hacksaw.
@4
Sorry, decapitated head is so much funnier sounding than discorporated head. And I don’t even want to know why you are aware of the distinction. Well, actually I do. Who knows that kind of shit??
Oh yeah, Nalts?
Well, the Jeffersons stole my head when I still had a lot of hair, so take that!!
@11
Although ‘discorporated’ is more technically correct, I prefer ‘disincorporated’. More verbish. Rolls off the tongue.
;D
@sukatra
Ad writers who minored in English and try to make snide jokes but reread their posts and realize they just come off sounding snooty.
Sorry :o)
I wish I could post pictures in this comment section.
Nalts, you big dummy! It’s “discorporated”. Any fool knows that.
Oh, I’m pretty sure I’m the only fool here… I’m gonna go stick my soon-to-be-dis-whatever’d head on the train tracks now.
@slater
i’m sorry, i actually thought your comment was really funny – just didn’t like the discorporated word as much as the decapitated one. I especially liked your reference to “your head, bald or otherly adorned” – not a phrase you hear every day.
seriously though, how come you know the difference between the two terms? is there something you’re not telling us? If so, I hope you got it on tape!!!
p.s. I feel bad that I made slater feel suicidal.
Or do I. . . . . .?
I like Slater.
Saved by the Bell just wouldn’t have been the same without him.
did patch’s friend do that?
@sukatra…
Dunno what came over me… I’m usually not so hypersensitive…
I know the difference (and I’m NOT trying to be cute this time) because I’m from Maine and I read a lot of Stephen King. He’s used both terms in his books at different times.
Hey, you big poofta! I just checked out the display of kissy-face in your newest video.
BTW, I hope I never hear one of my son’s friends talking about my “package”.
International Talk Like A Pirate Day is September 19. Just thought you’d want to know.
arrrrr!
Looks like the big one, Lisabit.
@24: I LOVE Talk Like a Pirate Day! My sons like it even more. They walk around all day saying “arrr” and telling bad pirate jokes.
Sorry I’ve been so absent lately. School has started back up again and I am extremely busy at work. That accompanied by my insomnia has made me over-tired and uninterested in spending too much time on the computer.
BTW: Did anyone even notice my absence?
^ I was gone, so no.
I thought you were still at the jersey shore.
^Unfortunately, I’ve been back for over a week now. School started and I am back at work. Sigh! I want to go back on vacation.
