Why you should not get drunk with podcasters

November 3, 2006 By

Last weekend Maryam and I got to visit several Washington State wineries. That was fun and good. But then Tim Reha turned on his recorder and got me doing the “butter knife scratch.” I’ll never live this down. I’m sure it’ll be on Valleywag by the end of the day.

Anyway, with a weekend of parties coming up due to the Vloggies being in town, this is a valuable lesson to remember. Getting drunk with videobloggers is even worse! :-)

Over on Valleywag there’s a hillarious video about YouTube done by Colbert. Said the same thing as Messina, but a whole lot funnier!

    A lot of people in the valley seem to be getting”drunk” for different reasons. Right after the JotSpot deal, Marketing Sherpa seems to be going the YouTube way!

    The Butter-Knife Scratch is an instant favorite! I’m also hoping for the video!

    As an aside, what is the track in the background? Great mix!

    I don’t understand why you care about Valleywag so much. I’ve been seeing recently that much of what’s posted there is melodramatic, wrong, or just “who cares” material. That’s fine, my blog is almost 100% “who cares” material for most others, but I don’t claim to be some influential know it all either.

    Take the article on David Pogue recently… Just because Pogue did a recap of his own reviews for the year and it’s “only” November, suddenly he’s declared insane? First, big yawn, and second, what does the author think of people that actually do something that’s noteworthy in an insane manner? People with low thresholds of drama don’t do well in life.

    There are some interesting posts there, but no more so than many other less renown blogs I subscribe to. I don’t get it. Down with Valleywag. :)

    Colbert for President! I love the guy and even though he’s wacky and wierd, he’d be better than any of the other candidates.
