Blog: Favorite Youtube Videos (Volume 3)

This is the third volume of my favorite youtube video series. In this volume we take a break from the video game music for some exciting time lapse videos and take a look at the earliest days of an internet phenomenon.


  • The first video is a time lapse of various night scenes accompanied by very beautiful music. Keep an eye out for the LAX landing sequence.
  • The second  and third videos are both photo-a-day projects of two guys who recorded a picture of themselves every day for several years. The first at least is pretty well known and parodied but it's still a fascinating thing to watch. The second I think is less well known but interesting in its own right as the man goes through a lot of maturing over the course of the video.
  • The next two videos are little pieces of internet history. Yahtzee Croshaw is known for his long running, snarky, fast talking video game reviews on the escapist. But did you know he got that job on the basis of two videos he posted to youtube? (You did? Well ok then I'll just go feel not special over here.) Please to enjoy the slowest talking you will ever hear from Yahtzee.
