10 Reminders for the Wild and Free

What's Your 10 Reminders?

So I saw this video and had to post it. It reminds me of the amazing summer I had in Anaheim earlier this year for SIGGRAPH. Sometimes we get tied up in our daily lives that we forget to live. Here are 10 reminders why sometimes we just got to put down the work bags and get out of the office.

1. Unplug and explore nature
2. Never grow up
3. Take the leap
4. Find a beautiful place and get lost in it
5. Nothing cures fear faster than actions
6. When nothing is certain anything is possible
7. Live unbound
8. Plant a tree
9. Don't quit your day dream
10. What do you think 10 should be? Leave it in the comments below and let me know.

Youtube Preview Commercials and Ads

Best Youtube Commercials and Ads

Recently I've been on Youtube alot more than usual, mainly looking at various channels and seeing how Youtube is slowly progressing into the mainstream entertainment as compared to Television. I didn't even know that Youtube offered Movies and TV Shows to subscribe to as compared to having an actual Youtube Channel. Based on what I've seen if you're a Youtube Partner and you have a descent following, then your channel will become part of the their content source for TV Shows. You get all of this plus tons more content at the cost of a monthly internet bill. I don't have a Television and I'm glad I don't because I appreciate the content on Youtube a whole lot more and the best part if that you can relate to the Youtuber alot more.

I'm still a huge TV Series fan though so I'm all for the Shows still, I even work on a few at the moment, Falling Skies and Once Upon a Time in Wonderland. Back to the original point, here are a few Youtube Commercials I've seen that sticks out for me. Let me know what you think in the comments below of the ads and also your take on Youtube becoming the new Main Stream Entertainment Network against Television.
