Great post. One thing that I found interesting was that, in your words, "Rick made the film he believed in, not something he thought would be sexy or award winning". Does that mean that he didn't first survey his market to see if there was a demand for this type of video? Or does it mean that he was really just doing this as a "hobby" and not necessarily for profit? Either way, it is great to see someone create and share something simply because they feel that it is important. Profits, and accolades, shouldn't always be our primary motive. Thanks again for all that YOU do and share. Dr. George Burroughs Thanks, Ken. Great post.

That evening I saw the documentary "The Most Dangerous Man in America" at a Village theatre. I had met Daniel Ellsberg years ago at a World Federalist meeting. During the breakfast meeting, I told her about Fred Haas, a conscientious objector during the Vietnam era, who asked me to help him reject his just received draft papers. I replied that he would have to claim world citizenship and register with our world government first. He agreed delightedly and we then informed the authorities - UN SG, Prez Eisenhower, local draft board - of his new affiliation. Result, he became untouchable! Why? He had exercised sovereignty! Just like the Founders. Judith loved the story. I hope she wins the Oscar Sunday. It's a great show. Best, Garry Hi Ken,

Program is based on Martingale system with the changed algorithm. It`s based on searching and waiting a series of results («red or black» usually). But this one I got is for «head or tail». There were discussions «pro and against» this program, but I downloaded it and explored for about half an hour and left it in automatic mode till morning. What I found in the morning was 250WM.

This lets your superimpose text right over your video...and change it later if you like without going through the edit process. Why do this? Well, for starters we increased the number of viewers who rated a recent video we posted by 2,400% just by asking them to give it five stars at the beginning middle and end of the video. How do you annotate? I don't know. I hired a bright kid to do it for me. Here are the directions. Maybe you can find a bright kid and hire him to do it for you too: http://help.youtube.com/support/youtube/bin/topic.py?topic=10534 One of the cool new tools YouTube has added is annotation.

The best method, I've come up with so far is to let my email list of several thousand people know about my videos. And of course to make a quality video that has content worth watching. I've also started to search for videos that are related to mine, and when I find a good one post a - video reply - Search for optahealth on Youtube to see some of my health and wellness videos.

But they haven't promoted them !!?? Go to YouTube and search on Greenling (home delivery of organic food in Austin Texas). Seems to me one of the "tools" is to create content that is viral. Oh yes... please let me know if you figure out the secret formula for that?

Do you think it is ethically sound and a good business practice for companies to send spam if it helps them reach their target audience? Looking forward to your reply, Omegaswitch Hi Ken,
