Of course I started looking at the big name video hosting guys but the kind of stuff I make, Ning screencasts etc, are never going to get a big audience and anything else I make is just going to plain stupid, and frankly an embarrassment to put online. Unless… that’s the whole point of the video, to be stupid, embarrassing, b-grade etc.

The thing is though, stupid videos get eyeballs watching them, they become viral, remember the light saber kid, or the women dancing in the gym, but none of the people who made those videos ever made any money from them. So on my Google hunt I found a new site called Cash Tomato that has a weekly prize draw for the best video of the week and the winner gets $1,000 <a href=”http://www.cashtomato.com”>free money</a> for their video which is fairly tempting, I think I’m going to try my hand at a cartoon screencast.

Yeah there you go, I said it, I’m going to make a cartoon. It’ll be really bad, not worth watching, but I’ve already decided I’m going to tell a joke and put some really bad stick figure drawings into the video pane and use my voice to provide the atmosphere. Having done a lot of public speaking I can really get some serious atmosphere going. And a thousand bucks for a video is pretty sweet.
