I am sure that most of you have no idea what Rocketboom is. So here is my attempt at letting you know about a great internet video weblog site. It is called Rocketboom, and on their about page, they call it a "three minute daily videoblog based in New York City. We cover and create a wide range of information and commentary from top news stories to quirky internet culture. "
I watch Rocketboom everyday. I know, it sounds wierd, but it is really great. Like, today’s clip was interviews with people on the street as to whether they liked Internet Explorer or Firefox. It was great. The segments can be anything from interviews, to dramas, to a news recap of everything internet and pop culture related. One of the best dramatizations of the happenings during the wake of Hurricane Katrina came from this site. I mean, really amazing. And then there are things like this week’s interview with Joshua Davis who is the author of a new book about surviving the most outlandish competitions. So the guy is like 130 pounds and sumo wrestles, arm wrestles, tries to take down bulls, all sorts of stuff. You really need to check it out. Plus they put it out everyday. It is anywhere between 3 and 5 minutes and is really great. Once you go Rocketboom, you’ll never go back.
