Movie Clip: The Oregon Trail! – The Official Trailer
August 7th, 2010
Posted in General Blog, Video Clips
Okay, so while I truly believe this to be a fake movie, this is pretty funny that people went to such great lengths to make a
movie trailer about the 80s video game that people played on floppy disk on pre-windows 95 computers. I remember those days!
The blog says you’ll learn nothing from the video game, and they are close to right… Okay, okay… maybe yo could learn something. I remember learning that when a person get hypothermia that you don’t rub them to make them warm, you just strip them naked and get close for body heat.
Did you learn something from the Oregon Trial?
By the way, here is a 4th edition of the game Oregon Trail, for Windows or Mac, that you can get for $6.20 from Amazon.com.

Video: Marty McFly & Ke$ha mash-up video… Nice!

I am not so much a KEI$HA fan – in fact, I can’t say I’ve heard much of her music; Personally, I only listen to Power FM, CDs, or Talk Radio (KLIF or KSKY).
But I do say that I enjoy the geeky side in me that enjoy the classic Back to the Future movies. I don’t know, but watching this video just made me happy. Enjoy!
“Ke$ha’s annoyingly catchy ‘Tik Tok’ won’t die, thanks in part to clever mash-ups like the Star Trek one and this “Tik Tok to the Future.” Set to scenes from 80s flick fave Back to the Future, the pop ditty gives a fresh perspective on the residents of fictional Hill Valley.”

Improv Everywhere treated New York City subway riders to a delightfully dorky Star Wars reenactment, giving commuters a break from the usual entertainment of “Spot the biggest pit stain,” “What’s that smell?” and “Who’s touching my butt?”

10 interesting facts about: YouTube

Video social network is probably one of the most important types of social media is the use of videos online. While I would say that Facebook is used more often than Youtube, I would say that once people go over to youtube.com, they stay there longer than they would at YouTube…. These are only my thoughts from my research on who long people spend on YouTube in a given session, so don’t take it as absolute fact.
But here are some interesting fact, taken from statistics of the YouTube press center.
- The very first video uploaded was called “Me at the Zoo,” on 23rd April 2005.
- By June 2006, more than 65,000 videos were being uploaded every day
- YouTube receives more than 2 billion viewers per day.
- Every minute, 24 hours of video is uploaded to YouTube.
- The U.S. accounts for 70% of YouTube users.
- Over half of YouTube’s users are under 20 years old.
- You would need to live for around 1,000 years to watch all the videos currently on YouTube.
- YouTube is available in 19 countries and 12 languages.
- Music videos account for 20% of uploads.
And I thought this one very interesting:
10. YouTube uses the same amount of bandwidth as the entire Internet used in 2000.
