As YouTube continues to encourage creators across genres to continue honing their craft, it seems as though the homegrown cooking star genre is very ripe in fact it’s really heating up for some break out stars… (Please no tomato hurling.) We’ve seen cover song artists, vloggers of course, and make up tutors really pop in terms [...]

Laugh it up people, it’s Tuesday. Amazing claymation of a very hungry creature and his troublesome dining experience. Created by Max Mörtl. I’ve managed to suppress my urge to play Angry Birds for a few weeks now, but this makes me crave it sooooo badly. (via Funny or Die) Don Johnson stars in this spoof [...]

I noticed several recent funny videos have had some serious bro-ness to them, so I decided to dedicate this Tuesday Laughs to all the bros we love to hate on. This couldn’t be more on point. I know some people that could use some hipster talking points too in case anyone wants to make that… [...]

Heavy doses of retinal blastery like always. If your eyes need some inspiration, look to these visual delights. Tilt-shift perspective of the world’s energy production directed by Niles Heckman. An experimental skateboard film that actually crops out the skater entirely, leaving only his shoes and the board. And then watch what they do in the [...]

It’s the stuff we all watch because we don’t want to fall behind on our quick-changing pop culture references. [...]

I noticed a new viral video while trolling the net and thought I’d confront it. It was posted yesterday on YouTube. Then BuzzFeed picked it up yesterday and Laughing Squid picked it up this morning. It features a guy running through a subway train in the opposite direction that it’s traveling, so he stays even [...]

A man named Francois Vogel demonstrates his discovery of a way to watch video in 3D without the annoying plastic or cardboard glasses. Instead he attaches these small devices to each side of his forehead (near the temple) and they cause his eyes to blink rapidly back and forth – which creates the same 3D [...]

This video of 8-year-old AT&T commercials has been around a while – even on YouTube – but surprisingly there aren’t THAT many views on it. Somehow I missed Mashable‘s post on it the other week, but maybe you did too. So what’s the deal with these AT&T commercials you ask? They’re from an old campaign [...]

Here’s another YouTube voice rising up. User damewse is so fed up with NASA’s failed attempts to connect with the American public that he’s putting out his own material using repurposed footage and the hypnotic combination of minimalist piano and Carl Sagan. It’s actually pretty humbling and encouraging stuff – although keep in mind it’s [...]

The new year has yet to produce many worthy “Tuesday Laughs” videos, but these all made the cut.

This morning I read about this homeless man who’s story is spreading rapidly across the internet. The YouTube video about him demonstrates his gift, an incredibly classic voice for radio and voiceover. I watched it (and you probably have too by now). I took a moment to reflect on what I just saw, and then [...]
