New Way for Amateur Videos to Cross Chasm Between “Lean Forward” and “Lean Back”

ByNalts

How many technomarketing cliches can I work into one headline? The majority of consumer generated video is consumed while we “lean forward” (computer). Now there’s a new way to reach those “leaning back” (television). BlipTV and Akimbo (a set-top box maker) have partnerered so Akimbo users can access the best user-generated videos. Although BlipTV isn’t…

  2. OK, the beating breasts were just creepy, but what’s so stupid about a marshmallow shooter? It’s a classic cubical warfare toy.

  4. Youtube’s streaming really sucks the last 36 hours. Are they cutting corners? Saving bandwidth for the big boys? Trying to turn a fourth quarter profit?

  5. @4 I haven’t noticed. Probably because my internet connection is being really slow lately.

    My connection speed was a blistering 11 KB/sec earlier today.

    I’d upgrade, but I’m locked in to whatever contract my apartment complex has with the Internet Service Provider.

  6. I think the coolest invention is the Priarrius or the Ferrarius or whatever you want to call it in your latest video!

    I think Jo needs one of those fake baseball cracked thru the window decals next!

  9. I remember when Kevin shut down his Revver blog (Revverberation). It was just like this. He slowed down his posts. Then stopped. Then announced it “went dark” after he set up this one.

  10. @9 Kind of sad isn’t it. His hair blog hasn’t been updated recently either (in fact, it’s been over a month).

    His video uploads have slowed down significantly too. Remember when he would upload a video every time you poop? I don’t know about you, but I think I’ve probably pooped more than 5 times this month.

  11. @10
    Oh, I always uploaded twice as much as he ever did. He got more views, but I worked harder. I’ve uploaded nearly 2,000 videos (and deleted half of them, the worst ones). Kevin has always been laissez-faire about quantity. Remember his Get Fit channel? Nobody else does, either. Hahaha! No, if you wanna hear from Kevin these days, you gotta tweet him. Hey, it’s twick or tweet season….

  14. Well, like I said before, I’ve seen it before. First he was all Revver, all the time. Then he dropped that for the wider genre of viral video. Now he’s gone social networking. C’mon, Kevin, I know you’re working on a social networking feed out there somewhere, maybe in Pahrump.
