Stupid YouTube Awards
Oh I’m not going to read this, but feel free to summarize it in the comments. It’s a CNN report about the viral video winners, and I’m not among them. Not that I’m jealous or anything.

Here’s the ever-popular “Comcast guy asleep on couch” video, as well as an interesting video response. Which company or employee is next? Could be you. Don’t pick your nose in public.
According to ComScore, YouTube has slipped to the #3 site for online video viewing. This news doesn’t count as a YouTube “bubble burst,” but you may want to revise your entry in the pool. So here’s the poop according to MarketWatch’s Bambi Francisco. I’m not kidding. That’s her name: 3 out of 5 Internet users…
In my unscientific study I have identified the best and worst site for getting videos viewed quickly. This is based on my own experiments as well as feedback from some of you that have found this to be true as well. Best site for getting views quickly: AOL Uncut (the consumer-generated portion of AOL). Example-…
A lot of interactive agencies are now pitching clients on the value of online video to promote products and services. But how many of them are brave enough to throw themself in the mix? At a recent “lunch and learn” for Atlanta-based “Spunlogic,” I spoke about online-video marketing to some major media and marketing companies….
Well actually WillVideoForFood doesn’t have a “viral video marketers of the year award,” and even if it did, we’d wait until December to give it out. Still, this “Cherry Chocolate Rain” video sponsored by Diet Dr. Pepper’s Cherry Chocolate is a near perfect case study on smart online-video marketing. First, it leverages the viral fame…

all I have to say is THANK GOD that Chris Crocker lost to Michael Buckley.
I would have won the best catchphrase category, if there was one…
Reubnick: I agree. I was afraid Chris Crocker would win. What the Buck is a good show and Chris Crocker is just a ham.
What did Charlie say when he couldn’t get the computer to work awhile back? “Suped peter!” That’s what I’ve got to say about the YT awards.
Chawklit Rain!!!! <—- I actually like that! The commercial wasn’t bad either with the squirrel cameo.
Here’s a summary of the youtube winners: It was a summary of who won. Anyone want to summarize this?
There was a contest?

I nalts the other day I caught up with Yahoo video awards.http://www.urbanread.com/news/winners-yahoo-video-awards
The awards are human voted I suppose.
Define ‘human.’
the whole setup sounded like mob rule to me.
I like MB and he’s a nice guy so I voted for him, but the ep they picked wasn’t really his best, and what is the criteria to be nominated anyway? who picked the candidates in the first place and based on what? I didn’t watch any of the others, well, except crocker

I wondered about that, surly there has to be more to it than Seth and Trisha’s favorite videos on the Employee’s wall at the Blockbusters
No need to be surly about it, surely. And quit calling me Shirley.
