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.

Check out the footage of a reporter getting injured while covering a power problems in New Jersey, and exploding man holes. The surly YouTubers didn’t think it was as funny as me. I laughed out-loud. But then… I need a stupid pill.
Well I never expected to be anonymous on the web. But I also didn’t expect to be targeted by this Google Adsense advertisement. Hmmm. $1000 a month to blog about my sexual dysfunction? Now there’s some interesting reading.
It’s been a while since I’ve summarized some of the most important factors to getting your videos seen. This post is based on my own YouTube creator experience, my work with big brands, and my book (Beyond Viral). I’ve also written a free eBook called “How to Get Popular on YouTube Without Any Talent (version…
LittleLoco identifies some “YouTube” cheaters. Gaming the system by downloading software that replays their own video over and over. Creating multiple identities and rating yourself. And somehow getting 100 subscribers a day even with no new videos. Things that make you go “hmmmmm….” (LittleLoco’s video courtesy of Matt from EndlessEurope.com).
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-…
Did you ever play the game in college where you tried to imagine the perfect woman, and you’d combine parts from various people you knew? Kinda like building the Frankenstein of women? Jennifer’s nose, Cathy’s eyes, Christy’s… um… personality, etc.? That’s what we’re going to play now. I’ll start. I’m going to create the perfect…

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.
