I think this is as close to Steve Carrell as I’m going to get, given that he’s bagging The Office Convention this weekend. But I’m still honored to see his ad for “Dan in Real Life” appearing on my YouTube video.
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…
Some speculation that Google/YouTube may be entering the pay-per-download or pay-per-stream… allowing people to watch advertising-free shows on their computer or web-enabled television the day after they air. Apple, as we discussed in this rather fabulous post, is also believed to be entering this space. What’s not clear is how the networks will behave… torn…
Viacom Knows What You Did Last Summer. Holy shit. According to this Wired article, a judge ruled yesterday (Wednesday, July 2, 2008) that Google will have to turn over every record of every video watched by YouTube users, including users’ names and IP addresses, to Viacom. The order also requires Google to turn over copies…
I’d like to take a moment to dispel the biggest myth of online video. Since a few “cross over” stars have been discovered on YouTube, people have begun to think that they can too. Folks, it’s like playing the lotto. You have the same chance winning whether you play or not. You won’t get discovered…
Lots of people have been asking me lately about the demographics about YouTube users (age, median income, gender). Here are some recent stats you’ll want in your “back pocket.” According to the YouTube “fact sheet”: Our user base is broad in age range, 18-55, evenly divided between males and females, and spanning all geographies. Fifty-one…

His blog even mentioned my little post, resulting in fan traffic that oddly didn’t assault me for making fun of his unibrow. Well now Weezer’s “Pork and Beans” music video has paid even greater homage to YouTube, and has garnered…

Better his ad than the one for Viagra that was popping up last week.
You so wanna do him!
Kevin, you guys do have a lot in common! You both look like you just sat through UDM’s 30min video! Go ahead, say it! You know you’re a level 9.999 fan when it comes to UDM!
lol @ nutcheese!
Better than nothing right? I’m still trying to get some of my friends to go with me to the convention. Even though Steve won’t be there I’ll be able to see Ed Helms. We have a lot in common…well the same first name at least.
For some reason I don’t think I would have much fun going alone. That would seem a little stalker-ish to me.
whos steve carrell? i thought i was the only steve on the planet? o well,i guess there might be one or 2 others? ROFDLMFAO@nutcheese!(the d is for drunk,you all probably know the rest)
see if you can find a cardboard cut out of him at the convention. You can take it out to dinner and ask him/it for advice on editing your videos, play three way catch, you charlie and steve…
oh man, jischinger just came up with the BEST idea for a video. I hope you’re gonna follow up on it!!
