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.

In a brave move by Will Ferrell, Adam McKay and their gang, Funny or Die has finally moved its content to YouTube. The FunnyorDie website has always had an identity-crisis. It certainly wasn’t a sage financially-driven move, but a fantastic creative outlet for spontaneous and risque comedy by Ferrell, McKay and friends. It was a…
Just wanted to makes sure we’re all still paying attention.
A rabbit can scare sheep? Thanks to Weird Universe for sharing this delightful video of a little bunny rounding up sheep. Seems a German channel posted this just days ago…
So it’s been a week since my last post. I’m rusty. Yet I’m down in Florida at the iMediaConnection Brand Summit, and the theme is “Turning Advertising Into Content.” I simply love that tagline, and quite possibly may steal it. The event is packed with marketers from some of the largest names in the world…
From the LA Times courtesy of New Media Musings: A federal judge sentenced Kerry Gonzalez, a 24-year-old insurance underwriter, to six months of home confinement for posting a rough version of the movie “The Hulk” on the Internet two weeks before the film hit theaters in June. U.S. District Judge Gerard E. Lynch in New…
“What’s it like? Having all those people watch you and comment on your life,” iJustine asks iChannel‘s “i,” in one of the last episodes since the show went on hiatus in May after 40 episodes. “It sucks,” he replies. “From what I hear there are people that do this voluntarily.” The irony, of course, is…

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 🙂
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? 😉
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.
