Blog: Favourite YouTube Videos (Volume 141)

In this volume of my Favourite YouTube Videos, we get our feathers in order, look waaaaaay back and then put on our music helmets.

• First, Meine Meinung, hop on their chocobos and take us for a ride.
• Next, John and Hank Green team up to talk about Big History, and start, as you do, with the Big Bang.
• Finally, if you wanted to hear all of Daft Punk's songs mashed into one accapella ear worm, the Pentatonix are here to provide.

Blog: Favourite YouTube Videos (Volume 124)

In this volume of my favourite YouTube videos, we cut to the chase, drink tea and attend a play.

• First, this Video. (from Mike Rugnetta)
• Next, Charlie talks about his patriotism, how to be patriotic when you're British and how wonderful hot leaf water is.
• Finally, dust off your Greek classics and watch John Green talk about Oedipus on Crash Course Literature.

Blog: Favourite YouTube Videos (Volume 32)

This volume of my favourite YouTube Videos we get everything we could need about video game history, dance and world history all in one awkward bundle.

• In the first video in this volume we learn everything we need to know about Dead Space. In less than a minute. What more could you need?
• Next up John Green teaches us everything we needed to know about Chinese history. In more than a minute. What more could you need?
• Next Rosanna Pansino does some chair dancing to the closing credits of Plants vs Zombies (written by perennial favourite Laura Shigihara). What more could you need?
• Finally, Husky and Kurt Hugo Schneider (and a lot of nerdy people) bring us their ... cover ... of "Sexy and I Know It". It's a little weird, but it's on this list for one very good reason: the zerging dance. First we have the video itself and then the behind the scenes. What more could you need?

Blog: Cool Things I Never Mentioned

So I decided not to keep going with the weekly Cool Things posts. I either had too many or too few things to post and then keeping cool things for a week doesn't make much sense. So from now on cool things will show up on my Twitter feed (and I might post a round up here from time to time).

I have a pretty big list of videos left over that I didn't post and I'm going to post a list of them here (just as links since I don't think any of us need a 40 video long post).
