World’s Stupidest Inventions
This really has nothing to do with online video, but it’s funny. Worst inventions ever FTW.

I only had to read about one of the batch of dead birds to suspect Notradamus must have predicted this. But alas, it seems we’ve had a few (source: BBC): 400 turtle doves were found dead in Faenza, Italy, in the days after New Year. Turtle doves, of course, refer to the Old and New…
To create buzz as it nears submission deadlines, The Webby Awards announced recently the “Top 12 Most Influential Online Videos of All Times.” Our guess is that they were shooting for 12, but got into a heated debate and decided to toss two more in there. JibJab’s “This Land”: A moment we’ll never forget. Jim…
Barats & Bereta, the most popular duo in viral video, are back. Here’s their latest video titled “The Other Son.” In this one, Barats (or Bereta) plays the role of God’s second son. I think it’s one of their finest videos since Mother’s Day because it’s hysterical and managed, I think, to avoid insulting Christianity….
So you’re walking down the street and you happen upon a bull horn and a podium. On a nice black & brass plate it says, “say something nice.” Do you know what you’d say? This is what makes ImprovEverywhere less edgy but far more wonderful than Candid Camera, Pranked or Punk’d. It comes from a…
A new arrival in the battle of video searches. Currently a video searcher might choose Google (which now indexes its own videos, and offers a homepage filter for it), Yahoo (which queries additional videos beyond those on Yahoo), or simply go to YouTube directly (which is typically what I do). Now there’s a new option….
Lady Gaga is contributing to the morale of US troops in Afghanistan thanks to her “Telephone” song, which is becoming a viral sensation. Courtesy of TheSmokingGun and YouTube, we can enjoy some soldiers doing an entertaining remake of Lady Gaga’s hit. Hmmm. War and Lady Gaga. Not sure it’s the next “wedding dance” but certainly…

That toilet putting green is brilliant!
OK, the beating breasts were just creepy, but what’s so stupid about a marshmallow shooter? It’s a classic cubical warfare toy.
The Peter Petrie Egg Separator, baby cage and Hubbard Screamometer were kinda creepy.
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?
@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.
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!
I can’t believe people noticed the priarrius. The previous owner put those on. I kinda like ’em. 😉
Didn’t notice the Pruriasius, but DID see the Cryptocephalus. Cool!
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.
@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.
@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….

@11 Of course I remember naltsgetsfit. Kevin seems to have forgotten about it though.
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.
