A little off topic: Offbeat Clips
By glblguy
My 11 year old son has been interested in my blogging efforts for a while. He’s tried a few different topics including cars but never found anything to keep his interest. His real passion is humor and he enjoys finding funny videos on YouTube and sharing them with his family and friends.
We discussed this a little and decided that creating a video blog would be right up his alley. I reserved a domain name for him, installed Wordpress, and helped him find a good video theme to set-up his vlog. I then taught him how to create posts and manage the blog and he’s been having a blast. Just like his Dad, he’s obsessed with checking his stats, but his traffic is currently really low. This morning he asked if I would “advertise” for him for free. How could I say no??
He has a good number of videos up now and honestly I enjoy watching many of the one’s he found. I know this whole post is a bit off topic, but hopefully you won’t mind me promoting my son’s video blog a little.
If you have a minute, head over to Off Beat Clips and check out the videos he’s posted. If you also feel like leaving a comment, I am sure you would make his day!
Thanks for indulging me and I hope you’re having a wonderful Sunday!
