  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.

Is it perhaps the non-Alanis-Morissette kind of ironic that I had to watch an ad for Reebok before the video about egregious product placement would play?

MilkmanDan says...

Actually, addendum / full disclosure to that: The video wouldn't load at all in my Firefox (I get "Video not found") but I assumed that was because it wasn't playing nice with my combination of NoScript, Adblock, and Cookie Monster plugins.

I tried Chrome, and it successfully played the ad so I made the post above, but then I got the same "Video not found" when it got past the ad and tried to cycle through to the actual video.

I then tried in IE (my "last resort" browser), which I have just today "upgraded" to IE9, only to discover that apparently there isn't a solid version of Flash for IE9 on Win7 x64.

I'll try again later.
