DISQUS

MNstories.com yo :-)

My actors fell through!
Also, can I borrow a mermaid costume?

Ahh, crap. I'm breaking all of those rules. *toes crossed*

"With Twincy, we become a magical kingdom! We're not simply a pair of large metro areas. We are a region that conjures up visions of unicorns dancing with kittens hanging in there."

Dammit. You've almost managed to convince me there *could* be a wonderful eternal springtime place called Twincy. Everyone prances about with tiny Belle and Sebastian pixies, sneezing and plucking out fey tunes with a hint of sadness that in fact... make you even more happy.

I just don't think it works for our city - unless it's in animated form. If we're talking some sort of otaku anime twinn'd cities, let's talk.

Twitchy + "Quincy" = Twincy
FAIL

Is this like... Menudo, but even more gay and from not-Mexico?
So confused. I feel it also may be a Pepsi commercial and I can't explain why.

YES THE TIME FOR EVIL IS NOW

Andrew, I'm so sorry about your dad. You fought your best to keep him around a little longer, and I'm sure you spent that time with him well. I feel honored to have had a glimpse of all he has fought for and accomplished in this world.

McCain truly looks constipated in that photo.

I don't get why they'd do that... do they have advertising targeted to specific countries? (Not that that would make it excusable, but at least it would make some kind of sense.)

Quit horsin' off!

Badass

That is so amazingly spot-on, and I've never heard anyone put it quite like that. Brilliant.

Gary, if you have a chance check out the documentary I made about blogs - I think you might dig it: Blogumentary

I'm glad Thomas Hawk weighed in here.
That pretty much clears the air.

I pilfer Google Images like crazy for some episodes of Vlog Santa, usually not paying any attention where they come from, since I consider it an artistic/editorial use.

Where it gets tricky though - I'm hosting videos on Revver, so there is potential for ad income. Granted, I've never offset the amount of time, etc. so it's at best "hobby income."

Likewise, if this video promotes Richter Scales, cd sales, other paid work, etc. than the video is really serving as a marketing tool.

Damn these gray areas.

congrats!

Solidarity!

Totally killer!
Someone write a magazine article and buy these photos, quick.

Damn they have nice teeth. I try not to show my teeth cuz they're f'ed up.

That seems off by a factor of 100.
.06% is a number I could get behind. :-)

(But I applaud the inclusion of Kent Nichols, and discounts for independent content creators.)

To me, the most exciting thing about online video is how anyone with a good idea can find an audience and be successful *without* the old gatekeepers. It's a magnificent disruption.

What does the NewTeeVee conference seemed focus on? The old gatekeepers.

No thanks.

Robert, I didn't see any rule about spreading silly rumours... maybe that rule mainly applies to me. :-D

Hmm, I'll have to check that out. I've been on the low light point-n-shoot search as well.

We just got a Lumix TZ3 which I wasn't initially happy with, but it's good for zooming in on birds (the reason I bought it for Lori) and the widescreen video quality is actually amazing if there's enough light.

Take good care, Robert.
I wish you the best.
We should all focus on making the world better (especially me!)

I think you nailed it.

Amen!

Almost every Minnesota Story video appeals to come community, most of them *not* a new media community but a physical world community, a community of interest.
