Before the negative posts start arriving please understand that this is my comment to the editorial story on IDG which I’ve linked here for you entitled:

http://news.idg.no/cw/art.cfm?id=E7290BAD-D82E-48D3-7B44A9A6D5FAD161” “Why Linux on the Desktop Is Dead”

To clarify, I call any PC which a user sits at, that has the traditional keyboard, mouse and display a desktop PC.

I cannot fault the author of that article because it is simply true. You can convert users, but over time without good constant support from a real person they are likely to move back to Windows.

Does YouTube Falsify Views?

For the record I’m a big fan of YouTube. I spend far too much of my free time loving all those viral videos, as well as some of the funnier stuff and of course many others who have great videos about the latest geek gizmo or other such interesting distractions.
However, its when I see such oddness that I have to ask. I was visiting FPSRussia after receiving an G+ notice that a new video was up, so I went to watch it Here. After I noticed the Like/Disklike numbers were a bit skewed. See this picture:
Youtube views
Don’t get me wrong I’m a big fan of FPSRussia and his gun shooting, and I’m sure eventually his video would garner this level of likes. My question is about how this was achieved from such a small viewing quantity. Youtube in it’s greatness was unable to answer my question, so until it happens to me personally I guess it will remain a mystery. If anyone out there has an answer feel free to post it or link to this article with your explanation.

Yes, I did finally update this. This time two separate video’s to attempt to keep the boredom viewing times to a reasonable limit.

This is being done on a Ubuntu 10.04 machine and the USB drive is a 2GB Kingston. Its older, but more than sufficient for the job.

Part 2:

I hope this helps anyone having issues with this process. If you have any questions feel free to comment.

Since I made the post for 10.10 here, I decided to update it with the process for 11.04. Honestly it’s not any different.
