- 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.

If the sifted video is in a play list, have a look at the play list to see other interesting videos the Sift users have linked together.
  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.

Notice the book on the shelf behind Mike Merrifield, "Atlas of Creation". This is a huge volume that attempts to debunk biological evolution. In 2006 & 2007 a Turkish man named Adnan Oktar randomly sent thousands of copies of this, presumably very expensive, book to scientist around the world.
Of course, it doesn't make a very compelling argument for creationism, but the thing is... the book is so well produced, of such high quality, that many who received it just couldn't bare to throw it away.

If you have time, I recommend watching the entire, uncut interviews.

Interesting. I agree, the photos are very nice.
I wonder if Dawkins kept his?
