Comedian Billy Eichner has found the perfect medium, somewhere between traditional and digital media. As host of Funny or Die's Billy on the Street, Eichner reports man-on-the-street style on-the-air, ambushing unsuspecting New Yorkers and giving his two cents about pop culture.
The comedian told Mashable he'd also ambush people on social media if he could. Instead, Eichner remains hyper-engaged with his growing fanbase.
Billy on the Street debuts its second season Friday night. The show features Eichner running around the city, throwing his microphone in people's faces and forcing them to choose between Meryl Streep and Glenn Close
Each month, the world watches 4 billion hours of YouTube video. And many people catch those clips during work breaks, while commuting or sneaking them in at the office.
Before I started working at Mashable, I was probably still a significant contributor to this number. I don't sneak videos in between breaks at work, because I'm too busy sleeping, breathing and eating. (Plus, I think about YouTube videos for a living.) This is normally the part when someone jokes that I get paid to watch cat videos all day, but that is a myth that seriously needs to be debunked
There comes a time at every holiday party when everyone is so full of food and wine (er… good cheer) that it's just time to sit back and relax around the fire. But what if you don't have a fire?
Well, you could schlep across town and pick up a yule log DVD. But wouldn't you rather switch on your Apple TV or connect a VGA cable for some convenient holiday cheer? These YouTube videos make jolly good ambiance for any holiday party.
