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.

It’s been in talks since September 2006, but MSN finally launched a public beta of SoapBox (source: DigitalTrends). Although MSN has about 10% of the search market (compared to Google and Yahoo’s combined share of more than 80%), it does have the advantage of being backed by the world’s largest software company. While the world…
Some time ago, we were watching Weezer write a song with his audience on YouTube. 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…
Van Stahr from YouTube made a video to promote his new petition. A petition to make me the new CEO of YouTube. I hate to support a hostile takeover of Chad and Steven, but they haven’t invited me into the advertising revenue-sharing program yet. As the new CEO I will allow creators to control how…
Wally (www.welcometowallyworld.com) has assembled an all-star cast for a new show called “Fizzer: RocketBoom on Crack.” He’s slotted spots for a lot of us (MarkDay, MarquisDeJolie and others), and apparently has secured a $1.5 million deal from YouTube. Details of how he splits that are unresolved. Check out this clever spoof. And be sure to…
Remember that girl in high school that slept with everyone? If she rejected you, you knew you were beyond hope? I think we’ve all lost hope. Many signs point to YouTube cleaning up. YouTube appears to be policing obscene content and maybe some of the vast amount of copyright violations (which, remember, are you the…
One of my wife’s tabloids featured an ad for Vitamin Water featuring American Idol star Kelly Clarkson (I guess she lost enough weight that the campaign is live). The ad is made to look like the cover of the tabloid and uses its masthead. Since it appears upsidedown and is marketed by tiny 10-point type…

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?
Your problem is that they don’t have a “best youtube drama” category. You would win that hands down.
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 suppose it’s a nice feeling for the winners, and that’s ok, and the votes certainly get you a little attention and probably more viewers, but what are the guidelines to get nominated in the first place?
the whole process just seemed so grammar schooloolish to me.
The thing I dislike about You Tube most is they treat and think the users and the viewing public are stupid.
wait a minute… I voted. nevermind
The nominations are very revealing about the personality of the Youtube employee who chose them.
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.
