Well..these are not new to internet. With the popularity of youtube, googlevideo (is it still there?), vidilife, break.com..there are plethoras of clips now. Anyone can just shoot small clips and upload it for the world to watch.
All of them are competing against each other to get more hits and find new way to attract revinue too...like break.com offering rewards too.
But my today's post is about the new kid in the block...recently launched, and I came to know it from a post in wired.com (couple of days back).
Now this site is being funded by a VC firm(Sequoia capital) who funded
Google, Yahoo, Youtube, Cisco,Oracle, Apple,paypal.....so you are getting the idea. But what makes it more
interesting is solid backing to this site from Hollywood celebs/upcoming as well as establishes directors/actors. And guess what happens when SNL's Will Ferrel and another "celbrity" guy posts their clip called "The Landlord" a 2 mins clip...
The site gets 8 million hits within 24 hrs...servers gets jammed, Youtube is taking it off from its server.
Well too much info..and if you still dont know which web site I am talking about...it is "funyordie.com". Go there watch the Landlord and yes...be careful .... as it contains some "swearing" by a .....!.
Probably they cant ever show it in even the boldest of SNL....but thats what the Power of Internet..isnt it!
else where can I publish this "original" two liner from me.
And why did the Lover send Chocolate wrapped diapers to his love?
Ans. Because he wanted to send "hugs" (huggies diapers..lets say unsoiled) and "Kisses" (Hershey's kisses).
Long Live Internet!
