Hey guys! I just did away with paged comments since I have a fast server now.
I was going to put the new comments at the bottom as well… .. but do me a favor and think this through before answering the poll below. Does it make more sense to have the new comments at the top (where they are now) or new comments at the bottom?
Which would you prefer?
I did an interview for Jules.tv where I talk about some specific strategies for making YouTube videos.
Article from the Daily Mail today…. see if you can find me 
Oh, and for extra credit, find me here as well
Oh and extra extra credit.. here is another one.
Did you know that the average postcard sent home contains only 150 characters?
In 1985 a researcher in Germany, Friedhelm Hillebrand, practiced typing out blurbs, or short questions and answers, on his typewriter and he was able to always get the point across in 160 characters or less. So he set out to make that the standard length for the text-messages that we all use today.
The technology at the time only allowed them to fit 128 characters in, but knowing what he knew, he did everything he could to
squeeze in an extra 32 characters, to bring it to the 160 characters that we are all familiar with today. Twitter, is limited to 140 characters, due to space being needed for the person’s username… and I think we all do a pretty good job of getting the point across in even that limited space!
Here is this article over at the Los Angeles Times.
Oh.. and can you figure out who wrote the postcard that I am using for an example?
Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know that I am doing my homework. I’m writing scripts for new words and expressions: oleaginous, saponaceous, poindexter and the phrase “straight from the horse’s mouth”.
I’m going for fun videos like my Donkey Punch one… so if you have any funny ideas that you’d like me to include, mention them in the comments below!
Now if I could just shake this cold…
Interesting article in the Washington Post today about teens and texting. Teens with cellphones AVERAGE 2,272 TEXT MESSAGES A MONTH!
I think that’s quite a lot. And it does make me wonder what the effects are on the teens who are constantly being distracted by texts from various friends.
I remember when I had a friend who called me 20-30 times a day just to ask me random questions.. it really drove me crazy as I couldn’t focus on anything for very long without getting distracted by a phone call from this person. The minute I got this person under control, everything started to happen for me and I started to achieve major success!
Without having any “me time” to think about things for any length of time, without interruption, must have some kind of effect on people. What do you all think?
Each year hundreds of words are dropped from the English language due to lack of use.
Do your part to save some of these words by adopting one!
Thanks Hodgy for pointing this out to me!
Test
This post was supposed to be a test with my new commenting system but it seems to have taken on a life of its own.. so I’ll leave it
I want to put together a 60 second promo piece to show to potential advertisers. I’d like it to showcase my show: best of clips, press, etc.. and not be sexy.. but be fun and appealing.
If any of you have any idea what clips I should include that would be fantastic! Just suggest the clip and time/location in the clip in the comments below.
G4TV did a good promo piece on me once, but I can’t use it and it’s too provocative I think for advertisers.
The piece will be 60 seconds exactly.
I should also write a blurb… hmmm… this is like homework for me!!!
