You won’t have time to watch this, but you probably will finish it. You don’t care about the tech support guy, but this will give you a strange glimpse into his brilliant and indifferent existence. Marvel as he multi-tasks and bullshits his way through the day. Thanks, Jan.
Here’s the blog behind the “Web Dude Versus Sales Dude.” Kudos, sir.
Look out “I Are Cute Kitten.” There’s a new cat in town, and she says No No No No. And according to research it’s the funniest video out there. Google is trying to create an algorithm that ranks a video in terms of humor/comedy. Here’s an article about the subject, and here’s a BBC World…
Online-video advertising is still dwarfed by television advertising. But fear not the recession, online video advocates! Fear not these gloomy photos of the depression that you’re seeing on all of the weekly magazines. And this is according to Christine Beardsell from Digitas writes in a ClickZ article. Here are three reasons Beardsell says online video advertising…
In this very clever video we meet a woman personifying a consumer breaking up with her obnoxious husband, advertising. We catch this subtle analog because the actors’ shirts say “consumer” and “advertising.” It’s kinda like those editorial cartoons that assume you are clueless — so someone is illustrated holding a newspaper showing the headline the toon…
I’m drafting my 2009 predictions for online video. I’m trying really hard not to repeat previous predictions, and to be realistic about what can happen in a year. This space has made enormous changes in 2008. Last month I made more on YouTube advertising revenue than I made in a month from my first job…
Imagine a year ago if I told you that Fox Broadcasting would be promoting its debut television shows via online-video personalities (see press release) that were unknown before sites like YouTube. And that Hulu, a network site, would promote on the Superbowl. I’m the “chief strategical officer” for Hitviews, so I can’t cover this objectively….
Remember those bullies from the 1980s movies with the big blond hair, that ridiculed us — I mean the protagonists — in so many movies? Huffington Post & Film Drunk offers a montage of the best “dork” insults courtesy of the Woot blog.

Somebody get me some blueberry snapple!!!!
SUKATRA!!! I freaking set my ALARM to beat you this time. This is SO unhealthy…
WVFF is a fricken cult.
Kevin. That video is over 10 minutes long. ARE YOU INSANE?!
I’m going back to bed…
As Don King said, “Let us be preventative rather than crecurative.” (click)
Hilarious video! Watched it twice! I used to do IT tech support work (back in the dinosaur days of BBS) and this rings SO true.
And Break is at it again (click link).
a rare breed indeed, but rest assured when calling and placed on hold forever or given smarmy answers and flustered by their off putting ways just knowing that they don’t live very long is some how extremely comforting
OMG! This was freakin’ hilarious!
So not like my IT support. I work for a Korean based company.
My IT support goes something like this…
IT “Expwain yoor pwoblem to me agwen, pwease.”
xjgx “Uh, my password doesn’t work”
IT “So yoor swaying dat yoor pwassword does not work wight?”
xjgx “correct”
30 min later…
IT “Uhhhh, wat was yoor name agwen pwease?”
Um NALTS The web server is down.

I don’t think sukatra sleeps. I think she is actually a robot. She just hangs out on her computer all day waiting for a new post here so she can be first. Give up, BsoN, you will never beat her.
I have.
Actually, MDJ, I have beat sukatra as well. But it was during the school year when I was at work at 7:30 and they didn’t block this site, and I didn’t have any 1st period classes. Now that it’s summer, I’m sleeping in and not reading this post as early as I am used to.
I have so much envy for that IT guy.
I saw a penis on his desktop
Envious?
I shouldn’t have said that..sorry.
I’m pretty sure this video was meant to make fun of the sales guy and not the web master. The shortcuts arranged as a penis on his desktop is your clue.
Sales guys are vulgar and stupid. I know. I used to be one. Sold Vulcan Fire Alarms, a $500 item, door to door (kinda like the Kirby vacuum cleaner guys).
Why are you people obsessed with me? It’s creepy.
We got a chain mail from gmail-is-too-creepy.com (click link) saying you were a good time.
We just wonder how (and why) you get here before all of us in the morning, and are here past the time we have all given up. Do you sleep?
mdj very good very good thanks!
I sleep in shifts.
I sleep in pajamas.
