The problem with making a statement like this is that I can't stop people from posting after me.... yet.

Hey, I was wondering how you got the info for the Google search statistics. If this is very obvious, I'm sorry... I'm a little slow. lol

Thanks!

This is actually a fantastic idea.

My roommate once suggested that it would be neat to run a company with a reward system in place that resulted in each employee getting to level up. At first you start off with just a desk and a computer. As you are recognized for doing good things in your job you will be reward by receiving upgrades your workstation.

You know what I hate about the Olympics? Nothing.

That was very Glee-ful!


You misspelled painful.

I liked Star Trek when it was Star Wars.

I think we were seeing weird things in non-logged in searches, and it was sometimes causing performance issues. Security and performance I think. MetaFilter does the same thing.>> ^lucky760:
@Unsung_Hero - @dag made that change a while back because... I'm drawing a blank now. What was the reason for that?



Ahh makes sense. Thanks for the Info

Knowing German makes this even better. There were some puns and sexual innuendos.

This isn't so much as a trick but more of a question as to why a certain feature goes away.
If you're a member and are logged in you can "Search" for videos but if you're not logged in the search box in the top right corner disappears. This is frustrating because sometimes I want to show people a cool video on VS but don't really want to log in due to various reasons (such as but not limited to: Not wanting an entire auditorium to know my VS name, time constants, on a public computer where I don't want to type my passwords, my name is so awesome people's heads might explode). Being able to search without logging in would be fantastic. Unfortunately, I stopped coming to VS to show people videos because of this and end up just searching Youtube. This of course limits the amount of exposure this site gets. Every now and then I show a video to more than a hundred people. That's a lot of potential future members which can lead to a better community, more exposure through word of mouth and internet talk, and even donations.
If this has been asked before and answered, I apologize and may the Flying Spaghetti Monster have mercy on my soul.
Oh and...
Yay! I popped my SiftTalk posting cherry

This is probably blocked in order to prevent attacks on the site via bots.
If you want to search a video on videosift, use google and type in:
site:videosift.com tricks of the sift
which will lead you to this page.
(<-- thanks bert)

Yeah, I know. It's just much easier to not have to back out of the page and go to Google with every new search.
Thanks for a response

While working a part-time job at a civil engineering firm, I got my undergraduate degree in General Business.

Looked for a job/career for 6 months, nothing.

Went back to school to get an MBA. A year later I was back searching for a job now with a Masters degree... nothing.

Finally, a year later I got a position within Disney doing finance for 2 hotels. Didn't like the job on many levels including the hour and a half commute each way with tolls which knocked out 1.75 days of salary a week (I didn't get paid very much ) I quit and work part time with the Engineering company again (welcomed me back with open arms) and now I am currently looking for a full-time career.

Oh come on. That's practically entrapment.
