ByNalts
ZackScott, one of my favorite fearless video creators, returns for a guest blog post about winning a recent Xlntads ProQuo contest (disclaimer: Zack and I both contribute to Xlntads as members of a “creative advisor board, and he wins contests while I think about them). Zack told me yesterday, “I’m hoping people think I’m such…

A Technology Platform for Video Contests
ByNalts
Memelabs has a platform for running viral-video contests. Didn’t know that existed until now, and it seems to make sense. It’s a better alternative to a “throw away” site that is custom designed by an agency. No big clients yet, but a number of active contests.

ByNalts
There are loads of social media events, and many YouTube “community gatherings,” meetups and online video events. But the “South By Southwest” of online-video and YouTube is indisputably VidCon. Organized by Hank and John Green (vlogbrothers), the event in 2010 drew hundreds of community members, top “YouTube Stars,” and Nerdfighters (the active people who rally to reduce…
RIP for Paid Content (bring on the ads)
ByNalts
It’s pretty clear that consumers are hesitant to buy professional video content much less amateur content. Given that I’ve sold exactly 13 copies of my “best of Nalts DVD” it’s no surprise to me to see that Brightcove is abandoning its “pay for content” model: On July 31, 2008, we plan to discontinue the Pay…

Damnit this is a brilliant article. Show me some friggin’ comments people. Or I’ll fake them. I can edit your comments and make them all good. Mooo haaaaa haaaa!
Sorry Nalts, didn’t really get the article beyound the point that you want some company to hire you to run their facebook and twitter accounts.
best thing you ever wrote Kevin.

This is genius. One day I’ll be remembered for this biting satire at the wonks calling themselves social-media experts.
You just added some more days to the month – cool!

What does the “H” stand for? (Middle initial)
Please tell me it isn’t “Howard.”
@8 It’s Hanemann.
I still don’t “get it” Nalts. Why would you write pointless drivel like that? Are you trying to prove that marketing is more important than content or something?
