- 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.

Why Predictive Text Won't Let You Swear

Useful explanation of this phenomena, although I don't text and have no experience with it.

holy crap, anal and cock are both the same number combination!?!?! *revelation

Nice sift Flock! Thats what my phone gives me for "fjnbk"...

This is some truth to this! I tried calling my friends "bitches" via text but it came out as "chubies." Now it's quite common for us to use this ridiculous term.

"What up, my chubies!"

omg it's true.. my K610i only has shiv!

Yes I've had experience with shiv.

Just think of how much money you could make if you invented a phone that takes the opposite approach. It would default to predictive abuse mode, and have a random obscenity button for those times when you're just too angry to come up with your own. Of course it would still have caps lock, but it would be called CRUISE CONTROL.

Maybe it's just Nokia, but mine has them all built in . . . lol PLus, I can add new ones :-p

I just tried it on my phone, the first choice I get is shit, then shiv, sigu, shiu and shi8. Bitch, bitches and ass work too, but not fuck.

Hello! This is why phones have microphones and speakers!

there's a famous one in norwegian, if you want to write "loffen", a bread type, you get "jødedo" which translates directly to "jew toilet".
