DISQUS

People could write out my poems (don't know why they would waste their time doing that but anyway). People could also download my videos using firefox, but I'm not worried about that. So far I have 8 subscribers 5 friends. For most of my videos I simply attach them others as video responses.

I've posted a few of my poems on Youtube, because I'd figured I'd have a better chance to get some readers. Plus, I'd figure it would be more creative to put them into video form. There's a increased chance that I'd be plagiarized, so I'll use google alert using your tips.

I've used Google alert before and I haven't caught anymore stealing my poems. Then again, I haven't gotten many comments on my poems, so I doubt anyone would plagiarize me. That's why I took the HUDGE risk in posting them on Youtube. I have a few of questions

Is it useful to save the emails you receive from google alert?

Do you still write poems?

How do I message you on twitter like you've been doing with those other people.

Excellent work. This is much better than the second version of your beta site.

Congradulations! How fun in the UK!

I've heard that websites such as Youtube and Myspace are using fingerprint technology or something similar to confirm people's identities, and maybe even keep the information on record. Isn't that an invasion of privacy?

The only error I noticed is that my comments did not go through for some reason. But they seem to be going through now. Weird.

On twitter, you said that there's not much feedback on your video. Maybe it's because comments are not going through.

I never heard of the Arrogant Worms Song.

I have videos hosted on Youtube, and I was going to take them down out of fear that I will have a DCMA filed on me, but after reading this article I think I'm pretty safe, although, I could take extra precausions for future videos. Thanks for this article, it was vert helpful.

I know this is a old post, but I don't be on this site much. I will be more often though. I just wanted to say that it's great to "know" you a little better. I'm thinking about writing something similar in one of my blogs...or even all of them...

While we haven't had hurricanes before, I can relate when you say that home is home. Where I live (St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada), a lot of young people don't want to be here because there's not much to do. But I personally love it here. Then again, I've never been off this rock before.

I have a few things to mention today.

First off, if you really want to do video broadcasts on Youtube you can can disable the embedding video feature. Another option is to do video broadcasting on Stickam. Not only can you host videos on stickam, but you can talk to like minded people live via webcam. You can even create your own chatroom and password protect it. The downside to creating chatrooms on Stickam though is that chatrooms are deleted after an hour of inactivity.

As for PeTA goes, man oh man how pathetic! It's pretty sad actually.

Finally, your mentioning about Nintendo protecting their trademark reminds me of a short story. For years, the city that I live in has a video store called Nintendo World. That video store went under that name until the Nintendo company finally caught on. Now what was known as Nintendo World is now called Entertainment Center.

I think the people who created twitter.com are twits. LoL get?

Anyway, Twitter looks like a cheap ripoff of stickam. Hey John, I have a better idea,why not sign up to stickam.com and talk to people about plagiarism and copyright issues live.

Pink has more things to worry about than that stupid painting. She's having marriage trouble right now. Oh and by the way, sometimes I do post lyrics in my blogs, but it isn't to get noticed, it's because well...sometimes you want to express yourself, but you can't find the words, but I guess that's no exuse though.

Actually, I just learned that Brett Keane was banned for plagiarism and posting people's personal information. Firefly515, however, had false DMCA's filed on him twice.

There is no story to link you to, but I'll give you the gist of it. There was this Youtuber by the name of Brett Keane, who basically spoke his mind. He's an atheist debunk, spoke out, debated, and gave his opinions on Christianity, Islam, Paganism, deism, and even atheism! People didn't like what he had to say, and since Brett had copyrighted music in his videos, they flagged me for copyright infringement. As a result his account was suspended. Brett Keane then went over to LiveVideo, but his account was deleted, because his haters were making false claims about him.

Brett Keane's friend, and fellow youtuber, who went by the username Firefly515 (a Christian), stood up for Brett Keane. As a result, Brett's hater's became Firefly's haters, and filed fals DMCA's on him. Firefly515 (don't know his real name), set up another account, and the exact same thing happened. False DMCA's were filed on him. Long story short, Firefly set up a third account, and there's now a true among them all.

Since you brought up youtube, I can tell you a little bit about what I've witnessed. Youtube.com suspended a youtuber's account because other youtubers filed false DCMA's not once but twice. And the reason why this happened is because he's friends with this other youtuber who's accounts were suspended for copyright infringement among other reasons. There's a lot more to this story, but it has nothing to do with copyright, plus it's 3:30 in the morning. Let's just say that some people need to get a life.
