Awesome YouTube Promoted Video with Site Takeover
Posted on July 22nd, 2010 1 commentIf you’re looking for the latest creative possibilities and want to take your online marketing campaign to the next level, try this combination:
AdWords-style PPC + YouTube Promoted Video + YouTube Site Takeover = Big Impact.
It’s not as inexpensive as Google AdWords, but this combination can deliver an extremely creative message to an enormous captive audience in real time.
In the same way that you can target searches on Google with pay-per-click advertising, you can now put your message in front of millions of YouTube video searches daily, too. Bid on the terms related to your video, and with enough space on your credit card you can show up as often as the search terms are entered. Promoted videos show up on the right-hand side of the YouTube search results.
Here’s where it starts getting fun. Take over your video’s landing page with a custom skin, and it’s like having a flare gun and bullhorn at Sunday mass…

How to find all the email addresses inside some text
Posted on May 27th, 2009 No commentsHave you ever received an email that has been forwarded several times and you wanted to reply to all? It’s a pain in the you-know-where to copy and paste all the email addresses manually.
So I made a tool that rips email addresses from arbitrary text.
Enjoy, and don’t abuse it. I don’t support sending SPAM. That is NOT what this tool is for. It is also not for harvesting email addresses from websites. If you are engaging in this type of behavior, you should read this post.
