As promised recently, the Levinson Brothers (Stephen and I) have tried to distill all the things we have learned through our time on the internet into one useful, intelligent youtube web series. Here’s an episode. Our goal is to create at least one episode of Kitty Puppy Baby every day for the next year. I’d …
Think I couldn’t figure out more puppet appropriate entries to create with the puppets I bought? Well THINK AGAIN! I didn’t spend over $40 a piece on these puppets to only use them 8 times! In this edition of puppets sing things, I recorded my own version of the Backblaze Blog theme song (you have …
I hosted a contest and I didn’t even get enough entries to give out all three prizes, but that’s okay. I gave out the two real prizes. I picked the Indian guy first prize, and the lady second. You might wonder if that is biased because I wrote all the jokes for the Indian dude. …
So I made a video for the Conan O’Brian “Blow Up My Car” video contest, but it won’t win because it’s not a funny enough car to blow up. However, I had a lot of fun making it so I’ve decided to host my OWN video contest! A Rodney Dangerfield impersonation video contest. First, watch …

After a week in Austin for SXSWi, I realize that the community of people who understand Linux is, in fact, a community with which my video entry for the Linux Foundation contest video has a chance at being successful. I know that it’s coming down to judges at the end and I just hope they …
The folks at Rand McNally did something smart with their videos from the FabMap contest – I just got an email (and I’m assuming all the finalists did as well) asking that before the judges make the final decision and announce the winner, everyone load their videos up on youtube. Excellent call, Rand Mcnally. Too …

I was interviewed for the “Pods and Blogs” radio show on the BBC to talk about my doings. The interviewer, named Jamilah, was excellent. I’ve gone into some detail previously about how much I enjoyed her asking me some tough questions. Now that the interview is up and I can hear how it came out, …
When I read the rules for this contest, I was super-happy. The whole concept is “Nesquik sends you to your happy place,” and as some may have noticed, I really like piggy-backing one contest on another. So since I was already going to Australia for free with the Little Penguin contest, I decided, I might …
