I don’t have any particular reason for posting except that I think it is a funny commercial and I like it!

Cool Music Videos & Just Cool Videos

Domingo — Sat, 29 Aug 2009 03:45:19 +0000

Some of you all may know already about the loss of a little life in our extended family. In this trying time I wanted to start this post of Cool Videos with some inspiring music, music that has lifted my spirits and the spirits of many others. Also, my wife, was given the link to a video that I feel should be seen by every adult that owns a cell phone with text capabilities, has a teen that owns such a cell or knows of someone who does.

This first video, performed by Chris Tomlin, needs no less of an introduction suffice to say this is his version of Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone). Enjoy

This second video is performed by a fairly new artist to me, by the name of Mindy Smith. Today this video and the song, Come To Jesus, meant a lot to me….

Even in hard times there is hope in His arms.

Ok, now for some really cool trailers! My good friend Jake Carpenter (@jakecarpenter) tweeted this link recently and I feel that it is cool enough to be mentioned here. This movie is going to be released for standard theater screens and Imax. Can you guess where I want to be watching Avitar in December?

This next trailer made me so stoked when my brother emailed me. For those of you who didn’t know me in high school and in college, I was a huge MechWarrior and BattleTech fan (both on the computer and the table top game). Well without further ado, MechWarrior -

And finally the video to make you think about this next week

Cool Music Videos

Domingo — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 06:00:27 +0000

It’s been a couple of weeks since I have put up some cool videos so today I have included 3 of my favorite music videos.

This first one is by a band that some of you may or may not know of: Newsboys. The song is called Something Beautiful and really pulls at my heart for it really just points to the simple point – That love, true genuine, unconditional love is something truly beautiful. Take a look.

This next video is by U2 and in my opinion is their very best song of all time. Some may argue that this song is rivaled by “With or Without You,” however, I would strongly disagree. This awesome song was performed by U2 at Slane Castle in Ireland back in 2002. Enjoy.

Finally this next video is a cover performance of Ozzy Osbourne’s “Crazy Train.” This video has made my pick because of two reasons:

It was performed at a church with the congregants giving the band players and singer a standing ovation at the end.
I am one of the camera operators filming. None of the video was edited in post production and what you see is what the Hope church attendees saw on stage and on the two large screens on either side of the stage. Following this sweet performance Pastor Mike Lee had some really cool things to say about “Crazy Train.” Now, watch the video!

Let me know if you like this series of posts with videos. If you have recommendations for cool videos, please comment! I’d love to hear your thoughts and see what you think is cool!

While I have been on vacation I have been looking around the net for a way to incorporate video into my blogs and so far I have found two – one old school and one that I think is much better for viewership within a blog:

This video has been up for about a month, but since I’m experimenting with inputting video into my blog and because it is so wicked cool I thought I’d use the same one for both examples!

This first attempt is what appears to be just a text link using the built in tools on WordPress (old school):

KEN BLOCK GYMKHANA TWO THE INFOMERCIAL

This second attempt is using a plugin called Youtuber (way cooler):

This second attempt is much better in my opinion since it allows the video to be played directly from ones blog. For more information on this plugin go to: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/youtuber

What plugins do you use for your readers to watch videos posted within your blog? Please post your comments!
