This video was put on-line 2 months ago… considering the fact that other videos that have been the most discussed video on YouTube was on the site for 5 months or more (except Midnight Express truth revealed by Alinur Part-1 which is quite an interesting video…  on YouTube for 3 months… also Beatboxing flute inspector gadget remix which is soooo LMAO), this is an extremely successful video.

SuperMoviesDownload: The YouTube Virus

800 Diggs and 55 comments. 21 comments on the linked blog article about faking out YouTube. This was one of the top ten Digged article links. So what’s the deal? It would seem that you can easily get your videos to the most viewed section by setting your browser to auto-refresh. It makes you wonder if YouTube will work. Why? because not only does the auto refresh thing works, the person benefiting from it uses other peoples work CLEARLY on the video while doing it.

Trent Reznor: “No wonder people steal music.”

People steal music? NO WAY MAN!!! Its called borrowing it until it is useless and then giving it back… lol Who makes up these comments? For a site like Digg, I am surprised that there wasn’t mre comments for this article link. 117 seams tame for a subject like this. The link got over 2600+ diggs, but the comments… why so low? Interesting…

Digg Link Pick Quote:

The NIN frontman blogs: “As the climate grows more and more desperate for record labels, their answer to their mostly self-inflicted wounds seems to be to screw the consumer over even more. A couple of examples that quickly come to mind…” He then details how his own label insists on screwing fans, and how he hopes to counteract that soon.

I agree… I love those casual flash games you can find on the internet. 23 comments on a subject I find close to heart.

I think its interesting that with the advent of systems such as xbox live – we are starting to see a slow trickle of original web games emerge as products on these systems. Successes such as this, are perhaps opening our minds to the fact that flash games can be more than just super dumbed down promotional gimics for reebok or HSBC (other shoes/banks are available) … I guess we have become conditioned in these promotional games to not expect stunning gameplay or depth, something ive always believed is a terrible waste…

3D again raises expectations. After all a great number of homes have (at least) a PS2, and are very used to the 3D game experience. When flash was 2D the comparison is difficult to make, as a web game is easily visual distinct from a console one. Hopefully these preconceived expectations the audience will bring from their console games, will push us more and more to begin to look deeper at issues such as gameplay and control. If we can combine this with the flair for original experimentation that flash has traditionally nurtured we have to be onto a winner, and indeed a new dawn.

Also, lets keep half an eye on the future. Despite their protests, its almost inconceivable that Adobe will not embrace some form of hardware accelerated native 3D in flash in some future release (both the momentum and creative desire is there at least). If and when that does happen, the game will really have been upped, and these experiment’s and knowledge we are creating now will only become ever more important.

Akon Axed by Verizon Over Simulated Rape – TMZ.com

This was a very mind grabbing topic for many on entertainment and gossip blogs for a few weeks now. Now it seems that Verizon has had enough and dropped him. Is this about Don Imus?

You hd to know that what Don Imus said would be mentioned somewhere in the blog post comments.

Yup.

Paris Ordered to Serve 45 Days in Jail – TMZ.com

Paris Ordered to Serve 45 Days in Jail – TMZ.com

The reaction to this blog post about someone going to jail is amazing! (600+ comments) The first comment was pretty civil, then it just took a nose dive… overall I think the comments are more interesting than the story.

Paris, you are what we all aspire to be; rich, famous, and free. You are the epiphany of all our dreams. You do as you please 24 hours a day. Most of us are prisoners to our daily grind. We support you Paris because you bring glamour and excitement to our otherwise mundane lives. Some suffer from extreme jealousy, that is why some attack you. Thank you for letting us live vicariously thru you. Good luck.

Upcoming Air Jordan Spizikes | Nice Kicks – Air Force Ones, Air Jordans history & release dates.

Upcoming Air Jordan Spizikes | Nice Kicks – Air Force Ones, Air Jordans history & release dates.

As I was browsing the internet looking for articles that people are interacting on, I came across this. Over 100 comments… about sneakers! Either this is a really seriously popular site or Air Jordan’s are making allot of buzz. I haven’t got to too many fashion and clothing sites yet to see what’s up, so i don’t have a comparision. Although so far in the sneaker world, this site seems to get the most interaction that I have seen yet.

Here are some of the comments on the sneaker and how its being released:

Mannnnnnnnnnnn… They should have left these to be limited and to only a few colors…. they done did it now…. tooo many colorways…

Comment by POPgotSHOES – April 24, 2007 08:15 am

^ I agree to an extent. Ir really looks like there were only 2 colorways that were going to be released initially, but when JB saw how many people went crazy for the first spizikes they added several to be pumped out.

Comment by NiceKicks – April 24, 2007 08:32 am

I hope the true blue colorway gets released in the Philippines. The black colorway just got released this week. I agree that Spizikes should have been limited. What I hope JB will flood us with is the low patent leather 11s

Sandra Rose: Photo of the Day: Monica and Rock

With stories about them breaking up… for example here: SPLITSVILLE: Monica+Rodney Hill ( Fabulous Comments (74) )

Well, celebrity blogs have a strong following and even stronger loyal commenters. Allot tends to be childish and IN ALL CAPS or commenters WrItE lIkE tHiS… but there are some very insightful and educational comments…. and the rest are just HILARIOUSLY FUNNY!

Anyway, back to the topic of the focused blog post, here are some comments.

Ms. Libra said…
thanx for posting this, so you could shut up the other websites posting breakup rumors, it seem that when something is goin good, especially for black ppl, folks look for things to be wrong. Go ahead monica, i love you, always have, always will and i wish you and your fmily the best

And somehow the comments got into how Monica dresses her kids…

Bird said…
I don’t know what I think about a blog that removes comments the moderator disagrees with. Should we get on here and ride Monica’s jock? She publically makes bad decisions on the regular. She puts her son out there for scrutiny in that ridiculous clothing posing like a rough neck, dates married murderers (C-Murder) and suicidal thugs and jobless strip club dwellers. I know the music industry would have to you to think all black people are down with criminal/ghetto culture, but as comments across many blogs would suggest, that is not the case. I thought she would outgrow this madness soon enough, but she appears to have some kind of mental block when it comes to behaving like a grown ass woman.

jorhas”however none of the Sean John and Roc’have kid models modeling their clothing in such a fashion.”

In what such a fashion do other 2 year old models/kids wear Sean John and Rocawear exactly?

Sandra, why did you remove the comments regarding the way Monica dresses her son in his thug attire? Readers were just stating the truth? Nothing negative was being said about her child – who is beyond precious and undoubtedly favoured by God and supported by many :-)…the child is innocent in the matter. Responses were to the childs’ parents in portraying their son and dressing him to look like a lil’ gangstar. Then she states that she is supporting our black designers, however none of the Sean John and Roc’have kid models modeling their clothing in such a fashion. Monica no one is hating, simply stating a fact that in many of your childs pictures that you have shared with the world, you dress your child to look like a thug. But honey, to each his own..peace.

monica is an awesome woman, PERIOD. and love is beautiful. as far as her son’s attire goes, she may dress her son as she feels. i know a lot of young black men on honor roll in high school, college students that do very well, and even a principal of an engineering firm who dresses this way and none of them are thugs and never have been. it’s sad that people look at your attire to judge your character. i guess when i show my legs and little cleavage, i’m seen as a whore although i have 2 degrees, volunteer in my community, have a ruthless investment portfolio, make my own money, and am married. some people…(shaking head)
Apr 30, 2007 11:28:00 AM

That last comment is interesting… but so are the others. While the rumor of her breaking up with him due to bad boyfriend-ing oon Rock’s part seems to pale in comparison to a kid being dressed up in what you would see an adult wearing… or more to the point, a urban youth wearing… or even MORE to the point someone who is into Hip Hop culture… or even more extremely to the point thugged out. (Why did WordPress spell check want to turn “thugged” into “hugged”? LOL. There is a hidden message in there. Don’t we all need a hug?)

I can imagine that this will come up later somehow.

Hell, I would have mistook Sarunas with the towelboy. Why didn’t Thunder, the breakdancing mascot, get into this discussion?

Regardless, the Warriors have to be stoked about the series being 1-1 after two games in Dallas.

Couldn’t Baron Davis threaten the beard to shut up or he’ll shave it? Or does the playoff beard have the bargaining chip in that situation?

60 Minutes Profiles “No Snitchin”…Update: Cam’ron Apologizes

60 Minutes Profiles “No Snitchin”…Update: Cam’ron Apologizes « HM

An incredible conversation is going on this blog about the whole Cam’Ron “Stop Snitching situation. Some in defence and some in outrage. I’m guessing this whole Don Imus thing really shook something in Hip Hop.

Stallion on Apr 23rd, 2007 said:

I would love to see more big stars in the black community take a stand against the no snitching policy instead of big stars in the black community take a stand for it.

Take a look at what KG on Apr 23rd, 2007  worte, as well as Thesis on Apr 23rd, 2007 and Sagittarius Black on Apr 23rd, 2007.

Join the debate… and while your at it, take a look at this. That blog got 98 comments on the topic of snitching.
