MTVmusic.com, a very clean, very simple, good looking site full of music videos and only music videos. Lots of older, classic stuff, too, like one of our favorites, Dire Straits’ “Money For Nothing.”
The site looks good and, in our limited testing, works great. And like Hulu, MTV also (smartly) lets you embed their videos on your blog, MySpace or Facebook profile, Tumblr, etc. (see below). It also has the requisite “social” functions like comments, rating up/down, etc.

“The Constitution of California currently sees all of our children and grandchildren as equal … Why would you change that?”
Wow. Just wow.
And from there go to other 2048- titles on YouTube:
There was a country!
There was an environment!
There was a unity!
There was a freedom!
There was a dream!
There is still a future!
This is an election like no other and YouTube is having an influence that no one would have imagined four years ago. Some stunning creative work online.
The background music and shooting technique put me in mind of V FOR VENDETTA. I don’t know why.
YouTube – A Poem For The Youth Voter
Yes. We. Did.
The Web is a wonder. Here’s a GOTV video addressed to the youngsters who might get complacent and stay home “on the sofa, watchin’ Oprah” instead of voting.
[PSA]
Go vote, if there’s early voting in your precinct. Last thing you want is for something to come up on election day — broken down car, boss wanting you to work late, food poisoning — and miss voting.
Vote now.
Obama ’08 – Vote For Hope from MC Yogi on Vimeo.
This is the first presidential election with YouTube videos prepared by passionate supporters on both sides, the first presidential election with political blogs and political Web sites setup and maintained by supporters, the first presidential election that will be influenced, at times greatly, by the Web.
Sit back. Watch.
Excellent vid — chock full o’ celebrities — for www.declareyourself.com and a plea to us’ns and thems to REGISTER TO VOTE.
Some voter registration deadlines are tomorrow! October 4th! and if you aren’t registered to vote by then, you can’t vote in the upcoming elections!
Some um. language makes this an only-on-the-Web phenom.
Well done.
Are you registered to vote? If not, and you are eligible and if you even just maybe kinda think that come next month you may be wanting to vote, register now! Watch the vid (or not), and hie over to www.declareyourself.com.
If you aren’t sure if you are already registered, check here. If you didn’t vote in the last presidential election or any election since, you are almost most certainly no longer registered to vote. That’s the way it works. Don’t vote in a presidential? Off the rolls. Haven’t re-registered and voted since? You’re still off the rolls. Have you moved since you registered? You need to re-register.
Register. Now.
(And all that bilge that the only resource used to call people for jury duty is the voter rolls so if you don’t want to be called for jury duty, you shouldn’t vote? Not so. California uses the drivers license registry and other resources. The bilge that you can’t register to vote where you are if you’re a student from somewhere else? That’s bilge as well. Register. Vote.)
Reverse Graffiti Project, April 2008, Broadway Tunnel, San Francisco.
Brilliant, but … if the work hadn’t been pretty, it would’ve been just as snarly as those folks who spray paint crappy letters on walls.
Good ad for the green cleaner used.

Tina Fey is a geeenyus.
And, oh, hey. That person doing her Katie Couric imitation isn’t half-bad either.
Twin Peaks San Francisco Sunrise from Chad Richard on Vimeo.
Or click through to Vimeo. Poke around while you’re there. That’s how I found this.
(I’d visited to watch Sarah Silverman’s THE GREAT SCHLEP. Caution: THE GREAT SCHLEP is not safe for work)
