A YouTube Tuesday

This is an easy post topic to keep up with consistency. Here are some links to some videos I have been watching on YouTube.

I am kinda starting to get disappointed in the direction that the HBO Game of Thrones series has gone this season. I’m not one to talk much or blog about it, so listen to her instead.

 

I like playing with Rubik’s Cubes. Solving one isn’t magic–it’s simple algorithms. What this guy does is crazy!

 

Comic Book Girl 19 has really helped me to rediscover my interests in comic books and film. I love the way she talks about movies.

 

My good friend, Erin Granat, put together a wonderful birthday poem that she read for her friends at her party. This is art!

 

Ever wonder what it is like to be in the circus? The Beautiful Tess Emerson gives you some insight:

 

Important, but BORING!!! Reno City Council Meeting from May 28, 2014

 

Well that’s about it for YouTube Tuesday. I hope you enjoyed all these videos–except the city council meeting, you won’t enjoy it.

Thoracic Bridge to Health

Today I discovered a great new way to stay healthy while working at a computer. It is called the Thoracic (Thor-ass-ick) Bridge, and it is a pretty basic stretch that takes less than a minute.

I have previously written about Standing Desks and How Working w/ Tech Impacts Health. Today for WordPress Wednesday and to makeup for missing YouTube Tuesday yesterday, here is another health tip. In the future, watch for an article about how to protect your eyes from too much technology.

This is the video that I found via @Facebook via @lifehacker via @YouTube via Max Shank via Ambition Athletics.

Today for YouTube Tuesday, here are some videos that I’ve been watching on YouTube:

This first one needs no introduction. I just wanna say that I am really looking forward to this production.

This next video is about something that I have been interested in for a while. It doesn’t really have anything to do with tech, but I like coins, and this is a well put together video about the tragedy of the US Penny.

I’ve written before about The Future of Streaming Online Content and about how quality art will be able to be produced and distributed to a large audience without the need for major corporate network studios. This next video is a perfect example of the new era for online entertainment.

Finally, here is the latest video for one of my favorite independently produced and distributed YouTube shows, comic book girl 19. She talks about some important stuff affecting artists who utilize YouTube as their main distribution platform.

YouTube Tuesday

Today is YouTube Tuesday! It’s not official or anything, but it is the day of the week that I focus on YouTube and advise people to do the same. I guess this post makes YouTube Tuesday official for the networkn8 blog. Why Tuesday? YouTube Tuesday just has a nice sound to it–kinda flows off the tongue.

Did I mention YouTube enough to get noticed by search engines? I stylized the name correctly, but should I also be linking to YouTube? Out of all the Web 2.0 platforms and avenues to the Organic Internet, YouTube is my favorite. I know it’s not nice to laugh at the cable companies and satellite providers while there is a mass exodus from cable subscriptions to Strictly Streaming, but they had it coming. Checkout my article about The Future of Streaming Online Content.

I recently discovered that YouTube has a Creator Academy. I wouldn’t say I have enrolled yet, but I started watching the videos. It’s free and shows users how to produce the best content possible. I am really excited to see what gets created in the next couple years. Netflix already changed everything about the way we watch TV and movies, then they started producing incredible content of their own. House of Cards is one of the top three television shows EVER created. YouTube won’t be far behind. The major TV networks and studios that have been around for decades will soon be scratching their heads trying to figure-out how YouTube, Netflix, and others became the top content providers and producers.
