YouTube Musicians Launch a Label

સોમવાર, 28 સપ્ટેમ્બર, 2009

We love to brag about successful projects that happen in our community, and so when we heard about DFTBA Records, the label that's all about acts that rose up on YouTube, run by YouTube stalwarts/songwriters Alan Lastufka (fallofautumndistro) and Hank Green (vlogbrothers), we just knew this had to be the subject of a Music Tuesday spotlight. Thus, on the homepage today is a DFTBA showcase, including a premiere of "Live on the Internet" from comedy duo Rhett & Link (cameo alert! a certain rapper appears in the video). You can also hear Hank and Alan talk about why they started DFTBA -- which, by the way, stands for "don't forget to be awesome" -- and experience a taste of their own music.

To date, DFTBA Records has released 10 CDs from YouTube stars like Dave Days, Venetian Princess, and Rhett & Link, and sales have surpassed $100,000. They operate as an independent distribution network, managing digital sales, CD production and (soon) merchandise for popular users like Michael Buckley. So if you're a talented YouTube user with an original song to sing, you may want to check out their site for more details on how to participate...and be even more awesome.

Join World Leaders on the Road to Copenhagen

મંગળવાર, 22 સપ્ટેમ્બર, 2009

In December, world leaders will meet in Copenhagen to discuss a global agreement on climate change as part of the United Nations’ Climate Change Convention (often referred to as COP15). The goal of the meeting is to reduce global warming emissions and ultimately chart a course that avoids the most severe impacts of climate change.

The road to Copenhagen begins now, as heads of state flock to the United Nations in hopes of laying the groundwork for COP15. That's why today, with the Danish government, we're launching the YouTube COP15 channel, where you can you can raise your thoughts and questions on climate change through an initiative called "Raise Your Voice."

We know that you've never been afraid to make your opinions heard on this important issue, from uploading footage of road trips to halt climate change in India to creating humorous educational videos about global warming:

Now here's your chance to submit your most pressing questions about climate change to world leaders through YouTube. All approved entries will be broadcast on screens around COP15 in December and rated by viewers of the channel. The top-rated entries will be put in front of a panel of experts at an interactive debate that will be globally aired by YouTube/CNN International. Two winners will also receive a trip to Copenhagen to be present at the debate.

A Year of Interactive Video Annotations

સોમવાર, 14 સપ્ટેમ્બર, 2009

Choose a different ending

Annotations Man

Provide dynamic commentary: Basically, this means placing a layer of comments on a video; things like director comments, pet dubbing clips, and how-to tips for everything from origami to guitar lessons.

Add interactive links and menus: Many video-makers use the links to direct traffic to other videos and to create spatial video menus.

Create branching story-lines: Unlike the above two types, which maintain the individual video as the comprehensive story unit, this third group emphasizes a collection of videos organized in a hierarchical structure as a new format of storytelling. Here we find a wide spectrum of use cases, including interactive advertisements, murder mysteries and even wacky dating tips.

Play interactive games: The climax of interactive sophistication can be found in these intricate collections of interconnected video elements. Examples include spot the difference, break-dance competitions and this clever ad agency homepage that's actually a YouTube interactive video.

We really find it hard to imagine that all this happened in just one year, and can't wait to see how you might knock us out in 2010. So go ahead and choose your own ending…Michael Fink, Software Engineer, recently favorited "Annotize me!"

બુધવાર, 9 સપ્ટેમ્બર, 2009

Although the United States Congress was out on recess for most of August, the debate over health care reform was hotter than ever this last month, as the lively town hall meetings and non-stop stumping by politicians has shown.

You can watch President Obama address a joint session of Congress and the nation tonight at 8 pm ET to lay out the White House's plan for health care reform. We'll be live-streaming the address on YouTube on the White House channel (youtube.com/whitehouse), so make sure to tune in.
