Coming soon: more of my own videos

July 2, 2007

Dear readers,

First, let me thank you for coming to my site.  It’s been a wonderful ride so far.  YouTube never ceases to amaze me, so it’s hardly a task for me to follow its developments everyday.  I’ve been most impressed with the creativity of so many different people–all amateur creators–on YouTube.  It’s inspiring.  So, this month, I hope to create several more videos of my own.  (During the school year, it’s tough to do so, but I managed to create a couple last year, see here.)  The first in the next line of videos I hope to unveil soon. 

I plan to make a few videos about YouTube, chronicling the stuff I’ve been following on this blog.  But I also may do some other videos that are about completely different things.  Please feel free to send me ideas for videos at utubeblog [at] gmail.com. 

But just remember, I’m a novice. One last thing: my video making may mean that, at least for a short time, my blog posting diminishes.  Stay tuned.  And thanks again!


Sammy Stephens’ flea market rap on YouTube

July 2, 2007

News:  Sammy Stephens made an ad on YouTube to promote his flea market in Montgomery.  It was all pretty funny until Ellen DeGeneres featured him on her show.  Now, he’s getting not only more customers, but also numerous people and businesses asking to hire him to do their ads.  He’ll be part of a segment on a VH1 show on July 6.  (more)


Esmee Denters in Norway (on YouTube)

July 2, 2007

She’s on tour with Justin Timberlake. It’s funny at the end when she says the band “A-ha” (who sang “Take on Me” in the 80s) would be music her father listens to.


So who’s on YouTube?: The European Union (EU)

July 2, 2007

News: It’s called EUTube. The EU Commission is one of the governing bodies of the European Union, which basically oversees much of the economic and political terms for 27 countries. The basic idea is to create one common market among the EU countries, ruled by the same laws and principles.
