If you want to put some real hurting on my computer, just write a blog entry with dozens of YouTube videos embedded therein. A friend of mine has a blog, and he does it all the time.
I must be really lazy if I'm going to take content from my one of my other blogs and post it here. But I have an unstated policy banning the use of embedded YouTube on that site. This site does not have such prohibition, and the interface, in fact, makes it easy.
So here then is the Musicwhore.org Favorite Edition 2008, complete with a whole clusterfuck of YouTube videos. Writing about music is like dancing about architecture, so the saying goes. Rather than read the list, it would probably be more helpful to listen to it instead. (LiveJournal readers may want to click through to Vox to experience the video overload.)
