In 2007, corporate PR firms finally figured out how easy it is to cheat their way onto YouTube's Most Viewed, Most Discussed, and Highest Rated Lists.

http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/11/22/the-secret-strategies-behind-many-viral-videos/

In 2008, it has been rumored that one particularly slimy PR firm will be running a web site that offers to pay YouTubers for their votes and comments using PayPal. While this will allow thousands of ordinary YouTubers to rake in a few bucks, it will also go a long way towards making YouTube more like commercial network television, as corporate content gradually pushes the last of the "old guard" citizen YouTubers off the Most Subscribed List.

As one of the ten largest companies in the world, Google could, at some point, decide to eliminate the middle man by simply selling all the slots on the Most Subscribed, Most Viewed, and Highest Rated Lists to the highest bidder.

When the most popular video bloggers stumble, the result is as awful as anything you'll find on the Internet. If you've got thousands of subscribers, you might start to believe that your audience really wants to watch you eat breakfast. Perhaps this video will cause some "YouTube celebrities" to think twice before hitting the "Upload Video" button.

The nominees for the worst video blog are:

Is it legal for you to make fun of Bob and Jerry?


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_figure

Is it legal for you to present small clips from other people's videos?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use

By making fun of YouTubers, aren't you discouraging people from posting videos?

If someone has hundreds of subscribers on YouTube, then it could be argued that they've now become a public figure. If you're a public figure, then you've got to expect that some people might make fun of you. If you don't have hundreds of people watching your videos, then you won't wind up on Viral Video Soup. It wouldn't be sporting to make fun of someone with little or no audience.

I don't agree with "The Academy's" nominations!

Yeah, they're an odd bunch. Why not help them with the nominations for 2008 by making your own nomination? Just fill out the e-mail form at our web site, http://www.ViralVideoSoup.com .

I still want to complain!

Well, I can't stop you. Constructive criticism will be duly considered. Mere Haters will be assumed to be twelve years of age (with the mental age of a three year old), and therefore ignored. You know what they say about three year olds: Children are to be seen and not heard.
