Got an email back from the folks at RabbitHoles - the price is not shocking, I guess, but I was hoping for a little less.

I haven't uploaded a file in a while and don't have any webspace at the moment, so I tried a random site - let me know if you can get at the attachment via this link:

I get a chub for must grunge, but especially for Soundgarden, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Alice in Chains.

And my avatar is how I'm going to be reincarnated. So if you're reincarnated as the Great White Hunter, please don't shoot me.

Just got an email back from one of them and he said that only California and a few southern states actual still use it. Not only that but he is in on a study for the university of Wisconsin. The study trained the cows to come in when they want to be milked not on a set schedule. They replaced half of the milkers with electronic ones that are warmer and measure everything. Not only do they come in when they want the over all production is up by at least 15%. The only thing they used was some basic antibiotics and alcohol wipes on the machinery. He is buying all the equipment when they are done he is so impressed.

none at all!

The problem for me is that I had the post bookmarked so every single time you posted a comment, I got an email to celebrate the occasion. After 4 posts and 4 emails I simply made my appreciation known .

Hope no hard feelings.

You do realize the sarah silverman bit was a joke, right? I actually think she's kind of funny. Guess my comments weren't?

Just got the email for my http://www.videosift.com/video/PTA-knockout and it looks good. It even has the exact time!

Yes, I'm a vote whore.

yeah, same thing happened to one of my vids. I got an email today saying that one of them had been saved, but when I went to look at it, the * save comment was there, but then an hour later sifty discarded it for lack of votes. wtf?

It was this one: http://www.videosift.com/video/Elton-John-Ru-Paul-Drag-Queen-Goodness

Drag Queens everywhere demand justice!

I signed up over a week ago and got an email that they would send me an "invite" when the beta was ready. Haven't received the invite yet...and my user name and login don't work.

"You were sent a standard legal notice regarding someone who uses your site. Any professional would just remove it. Your NASTY call for insults in really unnecessary. As someone who runs a site you should be bigger than that."

Actually your letter was not a standard legal notice. It did not conform to the standards set forth in the DMCA.

"If Universal Studios had sent you a notice to remove a pirated video whold you have been so insulted?"

If they had requested monetary redress for perceived losses I would have most certainly raked them over the coals on our blog. Even a cursory glance at the site would have let you know that we don't actually host any of the content. As well as shown you that we aren't selling anything.

"And by the way no production company or studio believes stealing films is publicity."

Well that's patently untrue, Jon Stewart and Lorne Michaels, arguably two of the largest names in entertainment, both see copyright infringement, which by the way is NOT stealing as being beneficial to their business models.

"and thanks for acting so quickly!"

Well you are welcome, but you are still sort of missing the point. The video had been pulled from our archives before you ever contacted me. Our own internal moderation system had flagged the video as being dead weeks before I even got your email. In effect I did nothing but respond to your email and throw up this post. Which all sort of goes back to my whole point about you not even bothering to check out the site before you sent us that nastygram.

That said I am sorry if what I said seemed nasty to you, but you in effect sent us a drive by threat. This threat had no basis in the law and could be viewed as extortion. A simple, "Hey I don't know why this on your site but my clients are the owners of the content and we would like it taken down," would have sufficed in the place of a standard DMCA take down which would have also provoked a sift talk thread, albeit a much more mild one asking users to refrain from posting the video. Also your assertion that I should know better as someone who runs a site is a bit fallacious. If the internet community doesn't draw attention to crap like this, copywrong law in the US will never change. We are not YouTube and we have no obligation to kiss ass to content providers. We have and will continue to act hastily to respond to DMCA notices, but I will not give up my right to be indignant about such affronts to decency.

One final addendum, I used the word nastygram because it is the accepted internet vernacular for a take down notice.

Also welcome to the community, I hope you stick around and sift. We can be a surly bunch, but for the most part we are amicable.

Yeah, they put it back apparently. Very strange, I got that email from the Dutch (I'm from the Netherlands) Google site. Maybe the international Google doesn't care. I don't know, very strange.
Here is part 2: How to Have Fun in Baghdad

Just got an email from Google saying it was deleted
The video is too long for YouTube, anyone know another site that will allow the upload without the whining?

Hey I never got the email for this one!

I just got an email identifying this as a self link.
