Brad Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I'm going to be posting some Youtube videos over the next 6 weeks as yet another way to introduce new people to GD and the BF site. These will be in addition to the ones bigjimslade will be doing. None of these videos will likely have anything in them that you don't already know from visiting the site, but they'll basically be site updates and other news that hopefully end up being returned in Google search results and help us get the site promoted in other ways. I just uploaded the first one which is a quick tour of the BF site home page: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFdSvV-vtOs If at all possible, sign up for a Youtube account if you don't already have one, rate the video (5 stars of course ), and leave a comment either saying how excited you are about BF, or how much you love GD, etc... And if you want to subscribe to our channel, that would be even better. And who knows, maybe I'll pick some people who help me out and send them a BF t-shirt... UPDATE: Thanks to everyone who helped out. Look for a new video posted soon and we'll do this again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravenseye Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Ditto! Are the other videos going to have sound of some sort? it's a bit odd with no audio. -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kellane26 Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Some rockin' music in the background would do wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 yeah i'll at least add some music for the rest of them. just wanted to get something up quickly for this one and since i'm not really a youtube person i didn't know what the rules were for adding music (copyright stuff, etc...) thanks for the help :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenseye Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 (edited) No Problem sir. Good first effort! Here is a link to a source of around 230 holiday tunes that are released under the creative commons license.You might be able to use them as background music.http://www.hermann-uwe.de/blog/10-100-creative-commons-christmas-songs-Mike Edited October 15, 2008 by Ravenseye added link to music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 also, for those of you who subscribe to our youtube channel, similar to our myspace friends, we may end up using that as a way to disseminate "information" (text lists, links to pdf files) that we may otherwise not be able to post on here...

tbarry1974 Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Totally brilliant! YouTube is an awesome tool for reaching the masses. Subscribed, Rated Commented. Good Idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyzmom Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 lol it only took me 20 minutes, but I did it! I clicked on the link and posted a comment and did the rating THEN realized that my computer signed me in under my son's You Tube account! So I had to create my own account, but every user name I picked was already taken, then I couldn't read half the security words you have to re-type, so then I'd have to re-fill out half the form.... but I did it all for you Brad!

SuperMommy Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 (edited) Make sure you are logged into YouTubeI am. I hit Post Comment and it just turns the text a light grey color and does nothing else. It says comment pending approval but it's not actually black (looks in use). I tried logging out and logging back in and it tells me I have posted several messages (tried it more than once), but they aren't showing? It let me rate it and favorite it, but won't let me comment on it. UGH:mad: Edited October 15, 2008 by SuperMommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
