Notice above we have a special tab for the page devoted to the “Tiffany’s Bag of Crap” Contest. I’ve added my entry called “Bike Off Roof.” Maybe I’m too self critical, but I don’t think it’s one of the worst. I may have to try again.
Advertisers on YouTube now have an option where they only pay when a viewer engages with the pre-roll ad. It’s a bold way to get digital marketers to move confidently into the medium since, like Google Paid Search, it’s more accountable. Here’s the YouTube blog post about this new format called “True View.” Since most…
Got this note from The Daily Reel just moments ago: We’re pleased to announce the launch of our new user interface, The Daily Reel 2.0. The Daily Reel 2.0 is sleek, fast, and user-friendly. Our favorite new feature is one you’re all familiar with from other video-hosting sites — the user profile. Creating a profile…
A recent study shows that the shrinking percent of US citizens that don’t watch online-video regularly are more likely (by 45%) to be boring than their video-watching counterparts. This study, mind you, is based not on a significant N or any official methodology. It’s just based on my own experience. For example, here’s a result…
Techcrunch announces that Warner Music Group will allow its music to be used in YouTube videos, but retain the right to yank it if it chooses. …the caveat that Warner will have effective veto power over videos using their music is particularly interesting. In effect it’s just a technological realization of the long standing policy…
More than 1,300 people reading CNet voted that Apple will be taking on YouTube. But take this with a grain of salt. I’m not sure I see Apple in the UGC video hosting and sharing space, and the other options of this poll were somewhat implausible. Frankly I just hope Apple puts more effort into…
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…

Yeah, yours is perhaps one of your best. Made me laugh the entire time. First the music kicked in, then I was in suspense the entire time.
I just watched the egg one with the kids and nephews/nieces and we were all roaring. Eating the egg inspired my next one:

I posted one comment, but I guess it didn’t show up. Anyway, I thought that was very funny, and the only way the sandwich could have looked worse is if it had bagged spinach on it. Today for lunch, my wife and I went to Olive Garden, and their chicken dish that normally comes with spinach did not come with it this time.
Got it. Stay tuned for the independent judges watching the bird and the egg.
Hey- heated spinach is fine I heard.
Here we go, Zack. Marquis- rest assure the judges were equally attentive during yours.

Man, seeing that video of your kids watching made making the video all that much more worth it. That was hilarious.
i don’t get it
Which of us gets credit for Sally’s comments? Clearly that’s what we’re after. I’m waiting for some “WTF”s.
I affiliated Zack’s Bird video on my main blog under the title “WTF” (even though I knew what). I should probably affiliate your kids watching it as “WTF Redux”.
I just realized my best example of a Tiffany Bag o Shit is “America’s Funniest Videos.” Tons of views on YouTube and horrible ratings. You know people hate it when a few dozen comment and you have 2 stars. That means a lot of people gave it the lowest rating they could (1 star).
Marquis, where is your main blog? I would like to see that.
Also, I’m thinking of getting rid of everything on ZackScott.net and just making it a video site too. I think I would rather have my Zack Scott Reports site just be Zack Scott Reports stuff.
My latest video may not qualify, but it is worth looking at. Basically there was a dumpster fire at my old apartment a few months ago, but by the time I started filming, then pretty much put it out. So the video looks exciting, but it is short and boring.

Like my unexplainably high traffic for my METRA video. Makes no sense.

Zack…you should be able to click on my screenname in these comments and get to it, but if not: http://marquisdejolie.blogspot.com/
Scroll down to the bottom. I think you’re the 22nd post on the page. The Revver widgets might slow down the pageload again, but you’re there.
There it is. Thanks!
I hope my bird video does well so I can make it my full-time job.
I’ll blog on setting up a video site soon. I’ve been working with Revver to figure out an easier way to manage CubeBreak. Something with more flexibility than a blog, but as easy. I want to stream my videos and others and make it obvious which is which. And I’d like control of the layout so it’s not all chronological like blogs…
P.S. Marquis is linked from here on the right. Adding ZackScott.
