Bo Burnham: Welcome to YouTube - YouTube's live show YouTube Live was a lot better than many people thought it might be. Kate Perry performed and a lot of YouTube stars performed including Tay Zonday, Esmee Denters, William Sledd, Lisa Nova and Fred. Queen Rania was awarded the first YouTube Visionary Award for her YouTube channel that discusses stereotypes and answers questions about the Arab World. Alphacat did a pretty good Barack Obama impression - see here. Another highlight from YouTube Live was Bo Burnham's song "Welcome To YouTube." The song has a lot of positive buzz on Twitter as you can see here. Take a look:

Bloggers Discuss Black Friday Sales - The holidays are drawing closer and so are the big holiday sales. Black Friday comes the day after Thanksgiving and it is the day retailers offer big deals to try and lure shoppers into their stores. Retailers are hoping the holiday shopping gets off to a get start but many have concerns because of the serious financial crisis. Tech blogs and product blogs cover the holiday in earnest releasing shopping tips and sharing the best deals. Here's a look at some of the Black Friday activity.

  • Wal-Mart didn't want some of its Black Friday ad circulars leaked so it issued takedown notices.
  • The Is it Black Friday Yet? website answers an obvious question and also provides a handy Black Friday Ads Chart showing which websites have posted the Black Friday ads for the big retailers.
  • The Inquistr has a post offering ten ways to find those Black Friday deals.
  • Mashable also has a post that lists ten sources for Black Friday ads.
  • ReadWriteWeb has compiled 25 resources to get you ready for Black Friday.
  • Rumors about what Black Friday deals Apple is planning have been discussed on many of the Apple blogs including Wired, Macrumors.com, Tom's Guide, Mac Daily News, Gizmodo, I4U, Gizmodo, Yahoo Tech, TUAW, Infinite Loop, Techmeme and MacBlogz.
  • Here are some quick links to the Black Friday sections from some of the major gadget and shopping blogs: ShoppingBlog.com, CrunchGear, Engadget, Gizmodo, Joystiq, I4U, Kotaku, WalletPop, Consumerist and The Cheapskate.
  • Some Twitters have been set up to cover Black Friday including @BlackFriday, @BFads, @BlackFriday_fm, @FW_BlackFriday and @DealTaker and ConsumInterests. You can also search Twitter for "Black Friday" and read all the latest tweets. Some Twitter users are also using hashtags and marking their tweets with #black or @blackfriday
  • Some of the major retailers are Twittering as well. Here are links to some retailer twitter accounts: Toysrus, The Home Depot, Whole Foods, ThinkGeek, Build-a-Bear, Zappos, Starbucks, PacSun and NewEggMall. Note: The Social Brand Index lists more twittering retailers here.
  • The most heavily discussed Black Friday deal so far is the Wal-Mart's Black Friday Magnavox blu-ray deal, which is the Magnavox MB500MG9 for $128 - down from $198. It's probably the most discussed deal aside from the rumors about Apple's Black Friday ads.
  • What will be discussed after Black Friday in detail and what will impact the stock market is whether these Black Friday sales actually help to get consumers buying again or whether the sales will dissapointing.

  • Boing Boing Launches Gaming Blog - OffworldBoing Boing has launched a new gaming blog called Offworld. Brandon Boyer makes the introduction in this post.
    As Offworld lifts off over the coming weeks and months, I'll be bringing to it a focus on the overlooked, the underappreciated, the rise of the independents and, in general, the games that are bringing genuine excitement and innovation (in both gameplay and design) to the industry.

    Offworld will also be home to a number of guest appearances by and regular features from people outside the games industry proper and those that have had only marginal influence but deserve more, because it's when those influences come in that the results have been some of the most magical and memorable, from illustrator Rodney Alan Greenblat and Masaya Matsuura's unforgettable Parappa the Rapper (the face that would launch the rhythm gaming genre proving so profitable today), to studio artist Toshio Iwai's musical Electroplankton, to Keita Takahashi's Katamari Damacy.

    That's not to say that Offworld won't also be exploring and featuring gaming's blockbusters, powerhouses and the history of its respected decades-old institutions, but in general we hope to chase away a lot of the industry's cynicism and myopia that's set in and bring the joy of discovery and a fresh breath of playfulness and wonder back, because we're all in this to have fun, aren't we?
    The blog is part of the growing Boing Boing blog network which includes Boing Boing, Boing Boing Gadgets and Boing Boing TV. There's also an explanation of Offworld here from BB TV. If you enjoy computer and video games you should add Offworld's feed to your news reader as Boing Boing always offers up some unique and interesting content.

    Al Gore Joins Twitter and Quickly Gains Many Followers - Al Gore TwitterFormer Vice President Al Gore recently made the move to join Twitter. You can see his Twitter here. Al Gore has amassed nearly 19,000 followers since his first tweet eleven days ago on November 6th, 2008. It's probably the fastest growing Twitter in history although there is no way to verify that. There are sites that list the top Twitter users like Twitterholic and Twitter Counter but none that list Twitter growth records. What's the fastest Twitter to get to 20,000 followers? That's probably going to be Al Gore who looks like he will get there in about twelve days.
