Episode Four

After last week's fiasco, I started uploading the video yesterday at 3pm.  And it's a good thing that I did.  Although I wonder how much skullduggery has been going on, with people watching straight from my Revver page in the wee hours of the morn.  Ah well, I guess I should be flattered.

Anyways, here's your weekly dose of Necrotesque.

And feel free to join the facebook group, if you haven't already.

Sometimes the Internet Scares me a Little Bit

So I've been trying to figure out what the hell is up with Revver (the link doesn't work because the site is down).  It's kind of nerve racking since in about twelve hours I'm supposed to be uploading a video to a site that, for all intents and purposes, doesn't exist.

Google is fairly devoid of recent news, except this tidbit gleaned from Wikipedia: "As of November 12, 2008, Revver's site has been down for several days, so it may currently be defunct." Which is hardly encouraging.

But then I read this article, which is slightly older, and discovered something interesting.  My twitter got quoted.  Weird.  Oh, and there was also a plausible explanation for why revver is down ["they are in the middle of major migration from a CDN/provider to a tier 1 & top technology provider which “should make the quality of Revver videos displayed better then ever” (could take a few days)"].

But I was quoted and I could have never known.  Hell, I didn't know for almost two weeks.  And the funny thing is, I wasn't even worried about Revver in that tweet... more so my own inability to get videos online, on time.  But still, regardless of the quote being out of context, it's strange to be surfing the internet and all of a sudden, there's a picture of you, and some words you once typed, and you're all, "What the hell?  What am I doing here?"

So I guess what I'm trying to say is that the internet is weird sometimes.  And a little bit scary.

Necrotesque Episode Two

In case you missed it everywhere else: http://www.revver.com/video/1304282/necrotesque-episode-two/

As an aside, I'm mildly pissed at Revver because their tracking stats seem to be broken for my videos (although the pennies keep rolling in, which is good). I know people have watched the videos, but the view count is jammed.

It's not a major problem, just mildly disconcerting is all.

Also have an idea (or two) for another one minute rant. If only I had spare time.
