Introducting The D&AD Inspiration YouTube Channel

Yes, it’s finally up! The D&AD Inspiration YouTube Channel has been probably one of my biggest projects so far. It’s a huge channel that allows creatives to upload commercial creatives to the area and have them viewed for free by the wider community. The process isn’t judged by D&AD, it’s a free for all really, well, apart from the moderation stage; this makes sure only the best stuff is uploaded.

This has been a beast of a channel, having to have a middle tier proxy and caching system and also making full use of the YouTube Contest API and the YouTube GData APIs. It’s also allowed me to write a lot of new open source code that’s released up on my github account. Hopefully you’ll enjoy it and upload some stuff too: http://youtube.com/dandad

Where have comments gone?

Good question my old fruity. I'm now sticking any post discussions on Google+. Why? Well simply it's better. WordPress's comment system isn't very elegant and nor are ones like Disqus or Livefyre, so to save hassle I've just shipped them off to a social network, like a real boss.
