VidCon was about community, not vlogging

July 14th, 2010

If you follow our tweets, then you know I took the weekend off from being a blogger and went to VidCon. I don’t think I quite pulled off being a vlogger – I shied away from most cameras – but the YouTube community was very welcoming of this blogger.

In case you don’t know what VidCon is, it’s the first ever three-day YouTube conference where the most influential and popular video makers and their fans could meet, interact off-screen and dance. Yes, there was a lot of dancing. Check out the crazy dance party that took place during Rawn’s accordion performance. Even the registration line was rickrolled acapella-style!

What Makes You CL!CK?

January 12th, 2010

The Internet’s head nearly exploded yesterday with all the hubbub about Facebook’s privacy shenanigans. If you were one of the many people tracking that story, or playing with your new Google Nexus phone, then you probably missed out on some pretty exciting news. Here’s a hint: It’s awesome. What could be more awesome than a brand spankin’ new Nexus? Well, a shark with laser beams on its head for one. I sent a letter to Sea World and everything! Could you imagine…? Shark Week: With Lasers! Ahem, anyway. This week’s news involves LEGOs. Yes, those wonderful magical toys that can keep any kid (or adult) entertained for hours upon hours.
