First off, I'd like to thank you for coming here! I really appreciate your interest in helping me decide this.
We have some great things planned in the coming weeks and we're trying to decide on an 'intro' and 'out-tro' for a video series (and all videos we do). I personally covet the blues. Southern blues. Mississippi Delta Blues. =)

Hey Folks! Welcome new subscribers.
Earlier today we had a webinar on SEO basics. We had 50 people registered and only 30 people showed up. Some came via Twitter at the
last moment. I was hoping for 200, based on the promotions that I planned but many of them fell through at the very last minute and I had no time to maintain them since they were all delegated.

I've noticed two changes and I haven't seen any blog post or article about them. I could be seeing something that has been going on for a few weeks/month but to me, I think these are some amazing changes to both embedded YouTube videos and Google Image Search.
