About
- Try clicking on the various channels to see videos posted to that channel - if you're into music you can click the Music channel to get more music sifts - go on and explore! Use the "hotness" when you have opened the channel link to get videos that have gotten a lot of votes, or use "newness" to have a look at the new sifts.

  Enter the Sift Lounge to chat with online sifters about anything and everything, or read interesting posts in the Sift Talk forum.
  The Top New Videos list is always full of interesting, current videos. It is always recommended that you have a look through the Top New Videos, but also have a look at these:
  - Upcoming Unsifted Videos - active video submissions that neither are published to the front page nor archived to the submitter's personal queue
- Have you seen a really funny, surprising, scary, interesting, cute or in any other way extra good quality video?
  Post and share it here - VideoSift is the best video aggregator on the Web, where we share, discuss, promote, and interact with the best videos out there on the web. Post it here, and share it with the large community of video-interested users. And - you are guaranteed to find more very good videos here already!
  Mind you, we only share videos you discover that someone else has made; if you "self link," by posting a video you have made, have posted or have interests in, you risk the ban hammer - read the posting guidelines before posting. The sift is NOT for promoting your own videos - it is for sharing videos others have made.

All That Is Solid Melts Into Google

submitted by geo321

1 decade 4 years 8 months 3 weeks ago

this is the first cut of an essay film about technology and control, it describes google, but a lot of it refers to the internet itself and how it has become alligned with making us think in the last few years.

it has some concerns in it about digital imperialism, i think that we need to question the authorities that have such a massive impact on our lives and the way we experience everything (almost). This used to be the news folk like the murdochs, the bbc and the cnns of the world. But this has moved to the web folk.

that...was....AWESOME!

Moving this video to geo321's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

*promote

Self promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued - promote requested by original submitter geo321.

yeah it's moved to the tainted webfolk, who need to use their powers for good and not with what they have been programmed with....Perhaps a drum circle or some recycling...Stop the poison-Plant a tree and watch it grow instead of television-teach your children that information is what you can take in with your 8 senses-smoke more pot, eat more shrooms ,max out your credit cards and refuse all phone calls and correspondence on the matter....

Oh and, "Thre3e cheers for recombinant DNA!!!
