You Only Came Here Because YouTube is Down (again)
You only came here because YouTube is down, again. Right?
Maybe they’re fixing the stupid comments functionality.

I’d better hold on to my day job. My job as the weatherman on MediaMoGirl is at risk. It’s good to be a “protected class” however. I may need to do the weather in a dress to reinforce that.
I recently wrote about the Sylvania DV-128, which was $40 shipped. I called it the “poor man’s FlipCam.” Well unfortunately, you get what you pay for. See the footage compared to the FlipCam Mino… the Sylvania is grainy and the audio is overdone… I had to turn it down so it didn’t blast you. I…
Surely you remember the deck of “most wanted terrorist playing cards.” Now our very own Jan has come up with The Financial Terrorist card deck. Who wouldn’t want a deck of these on their table? Talk about a conversation starter… that might ultimately end up with a finished box of red wine, some cursing and tears…
Red Herring article on how to make money on your videos.
Maybe 8 years ago I stumbled onto a website where there was a cartoon contest. Even better, it was managed by the voice behind Jibjab cartoons. There was some heavy competition but I believe I once won “runner’s up.” Jim Meskimen is back with his celebrated cartoon contests, and now on YouTube (that online-video sharing…
Don’t know what a “shout out” is? It’s when you mention someone in your video. Don’t care? Stop reading. This blog entry isn’t for the industry watchers, but for the small group of obscure people that watch my crap. I stumbled into my first “shout out” video recently. In this fake PSA I did about…

Well, it’s not down right now, but it’s just no fun waking up and seeing that nalts responded to one of your comments and then you just can’t find it anywhere!!! So I came to your blog for solace and all I found was this lame entry.
I’m kidding. You know I kid.
It’s a good thing that there’s no thumbs up/thumbs down on this thing because I’d probably get rated out of existence for this comment. Can you tell I’m bitter about the new comment system? Damn. I should learn to hide my emotions better.
You were wrong actually
P.s. hi Nalts
It’s all dead sir!… I need to talk to you, we need to get this thing done. The site is near complete đŸ™‚
It would appear that all they’ve done, besides generate a lot of internal server errors, is manage to break the comments section even more. Right now it seems to be hit or miss whether the comment servlet will show anything or not.
Okay, youtube IS down now, and yes, that’s the only reason I came back here.
It’s up. It’s down. Oh the humanity, ladies and gentlemen. The humanity. Will the meglomonolithic corporation survive its own ego? Stay tuned for another exciting episode of “As The TubeSpace Turns.”
What’s YouTube? I come here for the strudel. It’s great!
I only came here to find out why YouTube was down. Haven’t actually tried the YouTube site its self yet, I just saw your post in my RSS feed and came straight here.
Everyone knows that there is no point in trying to contact YouTube about anything to do with their site. Nalts probably broke it anyway by over doing the community interaction thing. Maybe their Nalts levels were down and they’ve gone into withdrawal? đŸ˜‰
I love nalts.
I dislike YouTube.
But I do like Nalts.
I dont worry about comments, i have them all turned off, I dont even allow subscribers,didnt get any more views anyway,and still on pace for 1.3 million+. BTW,im just here for the spam,my spam that is,check out my UFO video! LOL@ marquis as usual!
Today’s word of the day… meglomonolithic. Hey- checkout willvideoforfood.com/index.
Nice 404 message. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a nicer one.
How about http://www.willvideoforfood.com/index.html
I know i’m a little late with this comment, but to reply to TET, i have found, that there is a knack to speaking to YT. On a few occasions I have contacted them regarding this and that, and 90% of the time they respond personally, and not just with the automated response.
It’s called the ‘Kiss Kick Kiss’ system.
Start the emal with a positive comment, friendly and to gain a bit of rapport like ‘I know you get people moaning at you all day, it must be hell…..I’ll try my HARDEST not to whinge’
Then insert complaint, but in a constructive manner.
Then I finish off saying that I hope they have a lovely day, and don’t take the haters to heart, or something like that.
Manners cost not one single penny, BUT they can do absolute wonders.
To be honest, this works with absolutely anyone, and also a good management technique when dealing with problems with workers you have to discipline.
Christ Gregor, SHUT UP!
I’d rather whinge at them. I come from a long line of whingers and we have perfected the technique. 7 out of 10 hopelessly powerless bureaucrats (sic) quit their jobs and move to Vancouver after one of our clan has whinged.
MATT: Nice start! I like the soothing colors. But my blog has cooler and more robust Revver widgets on it. Six or seven of them. Bragetty brag brag. No, no, no, not my ugly joke website that this comment is linked to….my blog.
Marquis, all of the credit goes to the brilliant tripplehelix, I just fixed Nalts url.
gregor – who at youtube do you actually communicate with – do you just send them to editor@youtube.com or is there a particular person you deal with?
There are PEOPLE at Youtube!!!???
Sukatra, I just go through the sites help center at bottom of the page and just select any of the links in blue, then keep selecting until it says at the bottom CONTACT US in blue, then there are 3 choices, report an account issue, report a general problem or I want to suggest a feature. chose the relevant one, then i’ll select what ever it is that is closest to the problem, but then detail it in the message space, never emailed editor@youtube directly.
