So You Wanna Be A YouTube Star?
If you aren’t watching sXephil on YouTube yet, you should be. His main site is PhillyD.tv. The guy does a daily show that is one of the best I’ve seen.

Bratz Dolls & The Dark Side of Marketing
There are two kinds of marketers. Both use “the force”. You have the light side, and the dark side. And as every Star Wars fan, or any marketer knows… How you look at any situation, marketing or not, is usually from your own point of view. I’ll take the light side view of my marketing “force” and say I don’t like how these dolls are marketed. Agree with my view? Digg this. Watch this video at YouTube. TheDailyFlip.com... Read More »

Announcement: Making The Leap To Video Blogs Only In 2008 - No More Text
I’ve been blogging on this domain since 2001. I’ve written thousands and thousands of blog posts in text form, and while I enjoyed doing it all those years, it’s, well, boring now. This will be the last text blog entry I will post here at JimKukral.com in 2008. Instead, I’m committing to only creating video or audio content. and I’m not looking back. Who will join me?

Food Not The Only Thing Being Consumed At Lunch - Online Videos
According to the NyTimes, many workers are opting to not go out for lunch, but to instead sit in their office and watch online videos. In cubicles across the country, lunchtime has become the new prime time, as workers click aside their spreadsheets to watch videos on YouTube, news highlights on CNN.com or other Web offerings. The trend — part of a broader phenomenon known as video snacking — is turning into a growth business for news and media companies, which are feeding... Read More »
Bloggers & PR People, Take Next Week Off - CES Begins Monday
It seems that most of the online blogging and public relations world stops during CES (Computer Electronics Show). This show has become huger than huge, if that’s possible. Sure, people are still blogging about other things than gadgets, but what I mean is… During CES week, nothing else gets attention besides CES and whatever it is Apple is releasing. I’m not kidding. Just watch Techmeme (view this time lapse to prove my point) next week (it’s already... Read More »
PowerPoint Presentation Tips For Your Speaking Engagement
Pretty funny stuff in this video below. As I get ready to emcee the Affiliate Summit in Vegas this Feb, I thought this video to be appropriate. Found at Pimpmywork.com.

Because I make my presentations light on the PowerPoint, and heavy on me talking to the audience and giving good information. Watch this video, and you can... Read More »
Sitting On Your Good Domains? It’s Time To Sell Them
I’m a domain junkie. I only have about 150 of them, and I’ve been letting some of them expire, but I still keep buying new ones that I like. But do any of them have value? Dunno. It’s time to find out. In February at the Affiliate Summit, there’s going to be another Moniker domain auction. I was at the last one, and it was a neat event. They served champagne which was a nice touch. Pretty cool to see how the silent bidders on the phone on the side... Read More »
Got A Blogging Question? Ask The Blogger
One of my sites that I’ve been neglecting a bit lately is a site called AsktheBlogger.com. It’s a site where I answer all types of blogging questions for people who need answers.

The First Linkbait of 2008 - Talking About Linkbait
It only took a few hours for us to begin another feast on some linkbait. This time, it’s linkbait about linkbait. From Scoble… Remember the learnings I put up yesterday.
