The Social Media Guru
YouTube – The Social Media Guru.
Have you even read my online internet blog? It’s mega-awesome.
Hype Cycle
You’ve probably already seen this, even though it was published just a week ago.
It’s had nearly two million views in the last week, over 6,000 comments on YouTube itself, and been plugged into 826 blog posts. Among its honours, it’s the #2 – Top Favourited (All Time) – Sport. If it weren’t for Susan Boyle, [...]
Sweded
Just watched Be Kind Rewind on PirateCity. In the interests of research, I tested an illegal video service that streams movies for free. The quality is fairly poor – somewhere between YouTube and Vimeo. And not ideally, I watched this widescreen movie in 4:3. Jack Black seems a lot slimmer nowadays.
As I am sure you [...]
Take the Test
I was totally taken by surprise by this one.
(A little further research has revealed that it was created by WCRS, and that there is some controversy over the originality of the idea. What a shame.)
Internet Helps ermm.. Harms TV?
Remember last week, when CBS announced that its YouTube presence had lifted its audience figures? Letterman was up five percent in the month since they’d started posting excerpts on the service.
Well, today, the BBC publishes research that suggests the contrary:
Some 43% of Britons who watch video from the internet or on a mobile device at [...]
Not So Lonely
The new Wired has a great feature about the lonelygirl15 story. Lonelygirl15, you will remember, was a hit YouTube vlog about a teenage girl, her family and her ambiguous relationship with her friend Daniel. You’ll also recall that the central character, Bree, turned out to be an actress called Jessica Rose, working with a guy [...]
Proof YouTube is Good for TV
It’s always been obvious that watching 5-minute segments of TV programmes on YouTube is likely to increase people’s desire to watch the real thing. Pete Cashmore reports that yesterday, some proof has emerged. US TV network CBS has announced that viewer figures have risen considerably since striking a deal to create their own channel on [...]
Remembrance Day
Only tangentially about the sacrifices made by our grandparents and great-grandparents:
Another Post about GooTube, descending rapidly into specious generalisations
Quoted from Mr. Scoble (who is not specious):
“I do note that Google’s stock is up. Yahoo and Microsoft’s are down.”
The market believes this can work. Long-time readers will know that I am a believer in the Wisdom of Crowds. As the book says, when they’re properly orchestrated, the masses can make better decisions than experts. [...]
