High quality, embeddable Michael Jackson clips on YouTube

July 4, 2009 @ 11:57 am

Sometime in the past week, you may have gone to YouTube to check out a few of Michael Jackson’s music videos and realized that most of them on his official YouTube channel are of very low quality. For an official channel representing one of the biggest celebrities of all time, this is disappointing to say the least. Add on top of that the fact that none of the clips on his official channel are embeddable and you may understand why I think the official Michael Jackson YouTube channel sucks (I blame the record company).

Anyway, YouTube (or MJ’s record company) seems to be allowing a brand-new Michael Jackson channel at Michael Jackson Clips that show all of his music videos in high quality (and they’re embeddable too)!

I mean, just compare the high quality video below of “Thriller” with the quality that’s on the official Michael Jackson channel and you’ll instantly see the difference.

Head on over to Michael Jackson Clips to see all of his music videos in high quality.

WWIII propaganda posters

World War 3 isn’t currently under way (at least not officially), but if it were to happen I believe these fake WWIII propaganda posters speak the truth about the power behind the spread of information in the virtual world. The continual access to relevant and correct information is no doubt going to make a big difference in driving support — or disgust — against a particular side in a conflict. Check out the rest of the Flickr photoset to see some posters about the power behind Twitter.

Googling with Bing

I still use Google 99% of the time, but I won’t knock Bing too hard because it’s actually pretty good.

YouTube unveils movie trailers page

YouTube has finally dedicated an actual page for movie trailers, which is welcome news because I hate relying on YouTube users to upload trailers properly (because most can’t).

This is sure to rival Apple’s own movie trailers page once more trailers are added. And surprisingly, all of the studios are allowing the videos to be embedded which is nice.

Here’s the trailer for Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs (just for fun).
