Hello, this is Dan with an important message...
Remember that website, ZippCast, that I mentioned a while back? The alternative to YouTube that offered the old channel design?
It's gone.
It's been down for a while. I've tried typing the URL repeatedly and it won't show up. I just thought it was a server error, because it had a lot of those. But then I read somewhere:
"As of June 17, 2013, ZippCast has been closed and the servers turned off. The ZippCast staff had no knowledge of this until Friday, June21, 2013, when one of the staff received a short message from Louis stating that he had shut the site down and turned the servers off... That is the only thing we have heard from him since June 16. It is now time for me to close ZippCast chapter in my life and move on."
Basically, one of the creators of the site deactivated it without permission of the other members. The URL now redirects to another social networking website--another Facebook copy, as if we didn't have enough of those already.
I am really pissed off about this, but apparently a lot of people are happy.
Whatever. I guess I'm stuck using YouTube until another alternative shows up.

For one thing, you know a layout is bad when it's legitimately difficult to add images to your favorites. It used to be so easy. You could click on an image and drag it into the folder of your choice. Why is it that with the new layout, you have to actually open up the image, click on it, scroll down to the "Add to Favorites" button, add it to the main folder, and only th

Keep Your Hands to Yourself: 2020 Edition
I came up with these parody lyrics to this Georgia Satellites hit after self-quarantining in my apartment for two weeks. Yesterday, I visited my parents, who have also been self-quarantining, and recorded this at their place.
But seriously, stay safe, everyone. And wash your hands!

ZippCast is coming back!! At the beginning of March 1st (tomorrow) EST! It went down because The owner was expecting a baby soon, and if you looked at his profile back then, you would have seen. Now they said they have systems in place so that will not happen again. They still might have to work out a few bugs, but it is launching tomorrow, in less than one day!!
