Howdy folks,
First off I'd like to thank everyone for voting for me on the Snakes on a Plane contest. I seem to be kicking ass. For those of you in the nyc area hit me up as there will likely be spots open at the screening.
Also big ups to Wired Magazine for their recent blurb about YTMND.
YTMND will be having its own contest as well, read more for details.
As many of you know, I recently changed things around so instead of the "site not found :(" message you get a YTMND. Since that time I've gathered quite a few misspelling domains from typosquatters. ytmd.com, ytmmd.com, ytnnd.com, ytmnd.org, ytmnd.net, etc. It's up to you guys to make a YTMND explaining that people who visit these sites have misspelled the name. The site will redirect after around 15 seconds, and the best site will be an automatic HoF entry. Post your entries here for the time being.
This brings me to my next topic, original content. Every day I receive more and more complaints about stolen content ending up on ytmnd. Please guys, if you are going to take the time to upload something you didn't create yourself, find the time to cite the sources, and no "internets" doesn't count.
