How do you win the internet?

April 2nd, 2010

Every day, I wake up excited to find out what I will discover online. Yeah, I know, I’ve talked about this before, but I really mean it.

The internet is an ever-changing world with the most amazing things inside of it. You never know what’s going to be released and some days are just the best internet days ever.

But…

With every good day and every day, there must be a winner.

Recently, I have declared the following videos to have ‘won’ the internet for that day or the week. These videos make me love the internet more and more.

1. Scott Pilgrim Trailer. It’s truly is an epic of epic epicness. (It’s worth the HD download.)

2. Little Kids doing Scarface as their school play.

(Ok. It’s fake, but still hilarious. Great attention to detail on camera flashes.)

3. Han Solo realizing the true nature of Luke and Leia’s relationship

4. 8 Bit Money from Pink Floyd

5. BIRDEMIC!

6. Tim & Eric doing Old Spice commercials.

7. Chat Roulette Piano Improv – w/ Merton

8. Ben Folds’ ode to Merton doing piano improv at concert

9. Cobra Commander on Chat Roulette

10. OMG Cat

(cause it cracks me up.)

11. Gifs of Popular Rappers

12. Because my coworkers will love this…almost as much as I love…
NARWHALS!

13. Red Bull Stratos — Skydiving from the Stratosphere?!

And this is just edition number 1. Now, we can chat about which ones we love down there in the comments, but if we had Glass, we could all talk about the videos right on top of the websites. We’d be the only people involved and we could make all the comments we want want…it’d be a conversation.

And that’s what my friends and I did as we questioned the validity of the Scarface play, why Birdemic must be seen, and how Scott Pilgrim is my favorite thing in all the land.

But what do you think? Do these videos win the internet? And would you prefer to talk about them amongst yourselves on the page or do you like sharing your opinion for the world?

And while these videos won their individual days, at the end of the infinite day, the only winner is the internet. And, I think, that’s all we need. (oh, and this one last super awesome video.)
