Why Do I Put So Much Effort Into This Stupid Blog?
… when maybe one person will read it for every 10,000 people that watch my videos?
Oh- I remember now. It’s the profit from the ads I sell around these words.

Fired for Twitter & YouTube
ByNalts
Tim Chantarangsu, aka TimothyDeLaGhetto2 was fired from California Pizza Kitchen for negative “tweets” about the company. His title is “Twitter Got Me Fired,” but I think publicly bashing his employer might be another way to explain it. He had previously tweeted the nickname “CaliporniaSkeetzaKitchen,” and called the new black-shirt uniforms “the lamest shit ever.” He…
Interactive Video: Click to Learn More
ByNalts
We’ve long heard stories about how interactive t.v. will allow us to “click the lamp on a Seinfeld episode and find out where to buy it.” But here’s the best example I’ve seen: Lord of the Rings. Click on anyone and read about them. You’ll need Quicktime. Thanks to Steve Garfield for finding that one.
YouTube & Universal Launch Vevo. YouTube Feather. Yawn.
ByNalts
Vevo is live. Whatever. We like YouTube Feather better… a simplified YouTube experience. Wait… never mind. We can’t tell the difference. But it’s designed to: …serve YouTube video watch pages with the lowest latency possible.It achieves this by severely limiting the features available to the viewer and making use of advanced web techniques for reducing…
Anyone Dabble with Dabble?
ByNalts
CNET’s Web 2.0 Blog Author Caroline McCarthy reports on Dabble… A small start-up is trying to take over that niche. Lifehacker, the Gawker Media-owned tips-and-tricks blog, recently steered its readers to Dabble, a beta search engine that claims to be able to paw through data from nearly 250 video hosting sites, as well as a…
Nalts Trailer
ByNalts
Another attempt at a trailer for my videos, but still not where I want it to be. The challenge is that most of my videos don’t make sense when you only see a few seconds of them, so it’s hard to decide whether to show 20 seconds of just a few, or go rapid fire…
Online-Video Ad Spend: Optimistic But Still “Sculpting Fog”
ByNalts
Don’t get depressed about the economy folks. Even wrecklessly stupid brands are squeezing old-media spending in favor of paid search, targeted interactive advertising, and … yes… even online video. Marketing and advertising spend on online video has a good future. Even though it’s a small sliver of online spending and difficult to measure (slicing fog),…

You’re right, Kevin. You should just create an e-mail list for the regulars. Then you could curse more and not have to worry about your mama finding you on Google searches.
Google searchs? Mom can see what I wrote on GOOGLE SEARCHS?? Nahhh Pfffff! Oh (beep).
*gives cookie*
I use Swamii it only searches the latest items and keeps a list of your interests, but you have to log into it.
Don’t worry Kevin. I curse enough for both of us.
I was gonna say “for the both of us” but then I felt the spelling nazi coming up behind me, ready to transform herself into the grammar nazi.
Don’t be a poopy head. Where do you think those 10,000 video views come from? Santy Claus?
I love this blog, its the only one on my rss, keep it up, we are reading!
Start charging a subscription rate for it. That’ll separate the wheat from the chaff.
well it reaches me here in Australia.
And I take what you say as gospel, St Nalts
so pull ya friggin head in!!
Oh thanks. I promise I wasn’t looking for pity here. I was just venting. My back hurts.
Nalts, at least people actually READ your blog. I have no idea why I started one, and why I continue to do one. Ten posts, and only 341 views to all of them combined! WHY DO I TRY SO HARD!?!??!
I don’t know how to read.
I read it everyday! You are brilliant and i enjoy learning from you.
keep it up Nalts, or just do what you want.. I’ll appreciate whatever you do or I’ll just ignore it.
PEACE!

You know we love you, Nalts. What would all your regulars do if you didn’t have this blog? We’d have to go back to our real lives, which aren’t nearly interesting enough.
I live vicariously through your brain.
You put so much time into this blog because you’ve been putting less time into new videos. And that’s probably a good thing. Since this message is 4 days old, I’m pretty sure you’ll never read it. Happy First of July.
It’s a holiday in Canada, Dahlia (Canada Day).
Hey, MDJ, how ah ya. I had an MRI today, and with any luck I’ll be seen at Mayo Clinic by the end of the month. CHEESE!
Did they inject the shrimp juice into you?
DahliaK: I had an MRI last week – they didn’t find anything.
This blog has been a reference point for me since I started producing online videos almost 2 years ago, It has been invaluable to me and I thank and honor you,
