- 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.
  When browsing sifts you like, have a look at the Related Posts list to see other related videos, click the tags under the video title to see more sifts tagged with the same tags or have a look at other sifts from the same user in the More Posts By list. 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.

This is your brain. This is your brain on Google. Any questions?

I've been seeing more articles about this lately. Many of them say that multi-tasking is bad for concentration because over time your brain becomes less capable of focusing solely on one task at one time. Which seems logical, but on the other hand with the mass of information that we have to process each day we have to multi-task or we would never get through all of it.

*promote! This is way too cool not to be seen by more people. The internet makes you use more of your brain!

Self promoting this video back to the front page; last published Saturday, November 22nd, 2008 7:32pm PST - promote requested by original submitter LittleRed.

Your brain on google gives 37 200 000 hits, no wonder there is so much activity.

... yeah, this glosses over some important details, but... BRAINS!

Interesting! Maybe one could say that it makes us smarter in some ways but dumber in other aspects as a trade off?
