Dear readers, I don’t ask much from you. Free blog, no advertising. But I need your vote for the Valleywag “hot boys” contest. I’m getting my ass kicked. Not that that there’s anything wrong with losing one of these. It happened to Micki Krimmel.
My ego just can’t handle losing by a landslide. That would be almost as humiliating as the photo they selected.
Here’s the deperate plea video from Patrick (my son). I didn’t put him up to that or anything.
Yesterday I was driving home and spotted a Geek Squad van (Geek Squad is a computer repair division of retailer Best Buy). I thought it would be fun to create a video where I play a fictional Geek Squad hero responding to farcical “help calls,” so I shot some footage of the Geek Squad van….
Like me, perhaps, you are more interested in what’s in the video than what site is streaming it. But no sooner than I identified the “poor man’s Brightcove alternatives,” did I find a comment from Brightcove’s Jeff Whatcot alerting me to the new $99 monthly “express” version of Brightcove that was announced today. Again- this…
I just uploaded version 2 of “How to Get Popular on YouTube Without Any Talent” (a free eBook originally written 2 years ago). Thanks for the feedback on the first one. We’re all still figuring it out, eh? Nalts doesn’t feel as popular as when he first wrote it, but he’s having fun, dangit. The original…
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…
Now you’ve done it. You’ve stressed poor Daisy Whitney out with your provocative comments on my recent post. Look at the poor thing- she’s changed her hair, and the out takes reveal a near panic attack at the end. I’m going to have to invite her to do a YouTube collab with Uncle Nalts to…
I don’t track technology stocks well, and I certainly don’t understand the nuances of video compression. But my friend Jim Walker (www.mindpalace.com) is the one that told me to buy Cisco stock in 1996. I didn’t. Now he’s hot on ON2. Here’s a recent press release the company issued. According to the release, ON2 is…

OMG you tricked me into that, as if you’re losing by a landslide… Does that mean Micki didn’t lose?
You definitely have a “face for low-resolution video.”
That should be my tagline. Face for low rez.
Tripple- I WAS losing. The YouTube video helped.
yes the youtube NALTY NATION is coming through!!! you are a face for high rez in the near future!!!
Jee-zus H on Popsicle Sticks! NO ONE wants to see that thing in HD! It’s a face best suited for radio. Too bad about the lisp. Thumpity thump thump! Dinosaur!
I’m having trouble getting the vote to register… error message after I submit… anyone else?
Well, Nalts, you’re completely dominating the competition at this point (65%). I voted for you (though in my mind I was voting for your hot wife. Just made the medicine easier to take.)
hahah thats desperate man, begging for votes! 😛
….don’t worry, I’d do the same thing… 🙂
now that’s what I call urban renewal – real-estate in development.
PR PR PR
I voted for you even though I am distressed to note that I couldn’t vote for myself…. Not that I’m vain and self-absorbed or anything….
voted! good luck
I voted, but only because I feel sorry for you.
Voted last night. Nice to see that you’ve got your own campaign song, too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwGtp5veVzw
Haha I so voted for you, even made a subliminal voting video, but of course youtube takes hours to process even the simplest of videos.
Ask and ye shall recieve! 413 some odd votes!
And thank you Marquisdejolie for doing some PR work for me!!!! (message #13 up above) THX!
Can’t get myself to hit submit – Schlomo is so dreamy…
Kyle’s right about WifeofNalts, she’s da bomb. Of course, if you go back to the Nalts archives, you’ll learn that his wife and children are actually hired actors.
You tricked us into voting for pity!
You’ve got 426 votes, a mighty 73.7%! Not even clear on who the other chumps are, but I’m sure they’re nowhere as entertaining as you are. 😉
Seriously- I had 10 votes when I started begging. I should have saved my plea for the next round. At which point I post a link to my new Nalts Nation theme song.
Mark I don’t know if this helps, but Renetto wasn’t there either
(ducks!)
If you win you need to video yourself and the Vlog Hot Babes winner hanging out at the YouTube 7.7.07 event.
“Aorta cut down them weeds by the ballfield so them boys dont get hurt!”…………..Jeff foxworthy
Since your winning this round by a land slide hows that ego doing? We better get some type of video regarding this when it’s over. GO TEAM NALTS!
Nice come back, Nalts. I haven’t done any campaigning this time around. Maybe you can get your kids to do a video a for me?
Nalts is Sexy. In fact, I think nalts should remake “I’m too sexy” with himself in a mesh top. Ummm… I definitely voted for nalts and I’ve been part of the nalty nation. It’s quite a good nation.
Nalts you are gonna win by a landslide its in the 70’s now, woo.
Is Micki the owner of revver? Or the editor or something?…
Btw you and Happyslip have a huge vote count.
It was a tough call between you, and pzottolo, but I did vote for you, since Patrick asked so nicely. 🙂
nice
