So the other day I was browsing youtube when I thought of good idea for a new FTS column. I wanted to look at what’s popular on social networking sites we use everyday (blogger, youtube, twitter, facebook ect.) and discuss. So take a look at the first edition of Social Blender and tell me what you think!
First up, Youtube.com.
Browsing youtube usually means I’ve just watched one video and then click countless other “related videos” and links based on utter curiousity and bordem. But using the browsing function will also lead you to some of the most popular video on the web. So going to browse > popular videos> and let’s do…..>film & animation.
One video I notice is ” The Miley Cyrus Exorcism”
The youtube channel that uploaded this video, barelypolitical, is always a top on the popular videos. The video is only slightly entertaining but has nice production value. I would say the video is worth about the 2 minutes of your life that it requires but I won’t be checking out the full trailer linked in the description.
Let’s see what else…
Same category, this one is titled: Justin Bieber in CSI – Cena Justin Bieber interpreta Jason McCann em CSI Las Vegas
which loosly translates so OMG JUSTIN BEIBER IS ON CSI!! Uploaded by http://www.youtube.com/user/justinbiebersmania
He’s not awful or anything, but he’s just so Bieber. This is all I can think of when I see this video:
I can’t wait til his movie bio comes out in 3D!! Oh you thought I was kidding?
And finally to end on a good note, I checked out Eddsworld channel, specifically the video Hammer and Fail. Decent little animation that was funny enough to keep me interested for the entire 6+ minutes, kudos! Take a watch:
Anyone have anything they personally like or hate on youtube? tell us about it!
