    This short, punchy Top-Five video thing is a good idea.  Never seen it before.  Hope it pulls in traffic.

    • Matt Staggs

      Thanks. It’s hard learning to do this stuff in front of a million skeptical faces, especially as the “new guy”. Every kind comment is greatly appreciated. 

      • Jin The Ninja

        lol, this made my morning! thanks for the shout out, and i think it’s a great idea to continue

        • Matt Staggs

          I hope to make our commenters the star of the show. People like you, Buzzcoastin, Liam McGonagle, Camron Wiltshire – and yes, JF Quackenbush ;-) –  are the heart of this website.

    I likes, just like conventional news. Now its time for naked news!

    • Matt Staggs

      Trust me, you don’t want to see that.

        You would be producing. It would require the acquisition of some “talent” to do the actual presentation. But good job, trying something creative is fun.

            Sounds like a hit. The Site got better after you materialized out of the ether keep it up.

            Thank you very much. There’s much more coming. 

          • lifobryan

            Agreed. Rock on Matt.

  • Matt Staggs

    Apologies, by the way, for my congestion in the voice over. I’ve had a bit of a sinus problem.

    • NowAndThen

      This is a fun idea. My only bit of constructive criticism would be to lower the volume of the music in the background…it was a bit distracting. But besides that, keep up the great work :-)

      • Matt Staggs

         Good suggestion. Will do!

  • Ted Heistman

    I think it looks pretty sweet. It gets me excited to find out what will be featured next. Its funny how the effects work. I guess I am more suggestible than I thought!

    good edit, great job

      I’ve considered it before.
      Pithy news bursting
      like firecrackers
      in eardrums
      time is a factor
      days blur together
      day job consumes
      the sun like a hungry dragon
      I’m hemmhoraging hours
      bleeding out productivity
      onto the stain-resistant carpet
      evenings fly too fast
      too litle sleep
      laptops are
      poor dining companions
      and even worse spouses
      says my wife

      • http://buzzcoastin.posterous.com BuzzCoastin

        quit the job
        but then
        kinda kills the podcast thingy & the wife
        but then u could
        cash out the savings and travel around have adventures
        experience that thing called life before you’re toasted
        or, on second thought
        days blur together
        day job consumes
        the sun like a hungry dragon
