It wasn’t long ago when I was just blown away at how some of the Yahoo Groups had taken off and had tens of thousands of members. Now I get the same feeling of awe with certain YouTube videos. I’m not talking about the heavily promoted videos like political campaign promotions or those videos like Susan Boyle on British Idol that has been on every news broadcast for days. I’m talking about truly viral videos. Check out these stats (as of 9am Apr. 19, 2009) and tell me what blogger wouldn’t envy the numbers:

I wanted to comment on one of Natalie’s videos that was just posted YESTERDAY! and there were already 8,982 comments. Can you believe these numbers? Just incredible! Oh yeah, don’t even get me started on the whole 248,116 subscribers thing. I wonder if I could get her to wear my ‘Get Extreme‘ t-shirt in her next video
Duffy is a Welsh singer-songwriter. She was born 23 June 1984, a year after I got married so I feel pretty old but I like the sound. Perhaps it’s the accent.
Anyway, I’m addicted to advertising too and I ran across this blog post Duffy’s Diet Coke ads condemned over road safety fears. It looks like the uptight simple minded busybodies at RoSPA have nothing better to worry about in the World of Safety than a silly commercial with Duffy not wearing a bicycle helmet. Oh well, I guess that’s the world we live in today. Over-react on the small stuff and ignore the real concerns.
Actually, I love Duffy but that’s an awful TV ad lol. I’m sorry, but I know she can do much better than that. I’ll blame it on the director and producers. After all, I don’t know them
I was playing around with my Print Screen and Gimp while watching Duffy videos online so I uploaded several small photos. Ain’t she cute? Aww…
