Thee’s a grassroots effort to save sweet Mentos from the cruelty of Diet Coke. You too can help. Visit http://www.savementosnow.com/. I’m not involved in the effort, but I made ’em a PSA when I learned about it via the Revver blog.
I originally titled this blog post, “PopTub: Does it Suck or Rock.” But then I realized PopTub is about a bigger issue. But first, let me set the context. Last Friday I wrote a post about PopTub and said I wanted to appear on it. Today that wish came true (see below). Now I just have…
When my “Bored at Mall” was featured on Break.com I was reminded how much people like real reactions to staged situations. It’s what made Candid Camera, Punked and “Trigger Happy TV.” This weekend we did two similar videos, which are currently topping the list of most discussed and highest rated comedies on YouTube (see image…
Blip.TV has automated the process of uploading videos to its site and then blogging about ’em. That last post was an example. I didn’t log on WordPress to post it. I just selected “blog it” once I had uploaded my video to Blip. Quite cool. I initially had problems with it, and received quick feedback…
How many technomarketing cliches can I work into one headline? The majority of consumer generated video is consumed while we “lean forward” (computer). Now there’s a new way to reach those “leaning back” (television). BlipTV and Akimbo (a set-top box maker) have partnerered so Akimbo users can access the best user-generated videos. Although BlipTV isn’t…
Currently YouTube doesn’t distinguish between professionals and amateurs in its “Partner” program, or in the way it alleges to promotes videos. But this article suggests that’s about to change, and it’s an important sign that YouTube may be transforming from a user-generated platform to a professional media distributor. Today, advertisers have two choices: they can…
Can you tell the difference between a fake and a real smile? The short (3-5 minute) test asks you to report your “outlook” on life and “confidence” in spotting a fake versus real smile. Then it takes you through 20 tiny video snippets to determine a fake versus real smile. I haven’t been able to answer…

Thanks for the support.
We highly appreciate it.
We have posted a public thank you on our website http://www.savementosnow.com
We think you’re a cool guy. And learn a lot from your words on a daily basis.
Mark, our Junior Marketing Analyst, would like to draw a big red heart for you but he finished the red pencil. We’re gonna get him one tomorrow and see if he’s in the mood.
Yours,
The SaveMentosNow collective
Did your affiliate code number change? Didn’t it used to be something like 8907 or something and now it’s 3331? Is my mind playing tricks on me? And hey, isn’t the 15-second Hit-and-Run niche mine?
I’ve got two. One’s for Nalts and the other is CubeBreak. That way I can track my affiliate fees separately. I’m earning 3x as much on my own stuff than the affiliate fees, but Cubebreak helps with my own stuff too.
What’s the URL on the 15-seconds hit and run. I’ve been so crazy finishing my job and trying to do video stuff that I’m WAY backlogged on Marquis watching.
Scads of my videos are 15 seconds in length (“hit and run” length), although lately I’ve been trying my hand at 2 minute clips (your territory).
Don’t overwork yourself. We don’t want to see another Nalts hospital video.
I’d just like to thank you for taking the time to create this internet website. It has been extremely helpful
great.. thanks… it’s very helpful
