Happy Birthday, YouTube. You’re Seven. In internet years, that’s 49.

I didn’t get you a present because I think I only counted 5 YouTubers in this video.

Crackberry Video on BBC

ByNalts

I’ve sent a fair number of my online videos to networks but rarely ever see them air. Fortunately someone caught this BBC report about Blackberry Addiction, and tossed it on YouTube. It includes random clips from my Crackberry Blackberry. It’s really funny to see my stupid parody contrasted with English commentary about how Blackberrys impair…

Microsoft Corrupts iPod’s Packaging (clever video)

ByNalts

“Microsoft iPod” explores the question, “what would happen if Microsoft redesigned the iPod’s packaging.” Very well done piece, apparently with someone who’s desperately tried to have a simple package design only to be piled on by corporate marketers. I discovered this video through “Google Video Highlights,” a site apparently run by a 15 year old…

Is Yahoo TV Closing or Widening Chasm Between Online Video & Television?

ByNalts

Which online-video site is mostly likely to be part of the bridge between television and the Internet? You can fault the model, and question it’s sustainability. But Yahoo TV is well poised to leverage its partnerships with Verizon and TiVo to start serving its bite-sized video content via television sets equipped with broadband boxes. Take,…

Today Show’s Viral Video Doesn’t Go Viral

ByNalts

Sure we like Mike Tompkins (YouTube’s pbpproductions). Sure his Dynamite a cappella remix was cool. His appearance on yesterday’s NBC Today Show produced this, “Today Goes Viral.” While it’s one of the most-discussed videos in Canada (and we love our Canadian Tubers), it’s not exactly living up the the viral title at 15K views so far. But…

  2. I woke up with some nasty ass diarrhea this morning which I was actually glad about because first I thought it was my period & I have only had one period since november & that has to continue for at least one year for me to officially be thru menopause which will be FUCKING AWSOME so I guess what I am saying is you’re welcome for the TMI.

  3. pretty sure in internet years they are closer to 70 or 80. – you can tell by their short and selective memory

    the question is, have they been a good citizen?

    Like everyone the could have done more and they could have just done it for the lulz, but we all know they did for the money.

  4. Yeah that was an annoying video. Nothing on Community or Vlogers. I think I only saw Shane Dawson Briefly. it was 99% Viral Videos.

  6. I started supporting every effort to get away from youtube –

    perhaps it’s a futile endeavor… scine I still use it and watch stuff on it –
    .
    when you have a company like google that claims it’s profit in Ireland and all it’s losses in the US – because Ireland offers a next to nothing tax to corporations and the US allows corporations to write off their loses – I find it immoral to support such a company, I do my best.

    but the world is so screwed up I don’t know what to make of it any more – I keep seeing history all over again.

    The lies and deceptions are so thick and in your face I often wonder if I’m in a bad dream or if someone slipped soma in the water table.
