The New YouTube Video Edit Page


Are you having problems monetizing your videos with the new interface? 


I made a video about monetization back on April 3rd.  What to write in the additional info box when you are submitting a video. Typical YouTube, they have changed the monetization process. 


A newly designed Upload page and Metadata Interface page are now in use.




What happens if YouTube does not approve your video? What happens if monetization is denied?

Awesome USB WIFI High Power Router Repeater




Long range connect to any public wifi, here’s how.
  
We purchased a USB Router Repeater for our sailboat. We like it soooo much I wanted to make this video. It is a great product and if you are looking for WIFI access, check out this unit from Radio Labs!
  
The coolest thing with this repeater, all you do is connect the external antenna and plug it in to power it up. No cables, no software, no switches, no drivers, nada.

Do It Yourself - Debunking the 6 Volt and 12 Volt Battery Myth


Pirate Lifestyle TV ™ Quickie 083


Should you use 6 volt batteries or 12 volt batteries? 


Are you sure? Why? 


Think about what a battery is. Batteries are made up of cells, and each cell contains lead plates and acid. Each cell is two point one volts. There is nothing magical about a battery with three cells, nothing that makes it better than a battery with six cells. So, why do so many people continue to believe six volt batteries are better than twelve volt batteries?

What kind of Inverter do you need? Are you sure? 

One of the most important parts of the home power system is the inverter.

Well,


Today, I received my 2011 4th quarter earnings (revenue) check for my book, Sail the Seven Seas of Freedom. Awesome. And I thank you!!





This has inspired and motivated me to "get back on the horse" and work on my next book project. I have the first draft written and need to get going on editing and re-writing the darn thing.





And as Gene Fowler says, "Writing is easy: All you do is sit staring at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead."

“If it’s not a hole in the boat, don’t worry about it.”


You Are a Pirate So Do What You Love

Pirate Lifestyle TV ™ Quickie 075

In our modern world it is easy to be distracted from what is truly important. We start worrying about things we have no control over, like the price of gas at the pumps, or what is happening in other places half-way around the world. Or even worse, silly things like which fast food joint to have lunch at.

So remember, “If it’s not a hole in the boat, don’t worry about it.”

YouTube is Changing, It is a New Year, and my 2 Year Anniversary

You won’t believe what you’ll see in this video. Let’s get started. 

You know, when I started doing this, my goal was to share a bit of our life. We live on this sailboat and I thought you might find our story interesting. 

Over the past two years I have received lots of advice on how to improve my videos, and I will be incorporating a lot of your thoughts and ideas in my videos. 

For example, many of you find my “Mr. Rogers” style of talking condescending. You feel I am treating you as babies, and that I come across as I’m smart and you’re not. Well no more. 

Watch the video to see all of the many changes.

Pirate Lifestyle TV - Two Year Anniversary


Ahoy me hearties!

I created Pirate Lifestyle TV, my YouTube channel, January 14, 2010 (two years ago).

I have faithfully uploaded one video each week these past two years. Once in a while I have missed a week and occasionally I have uploaded two videos in a week.

I did take a bit of a break in December 2010. I think I uploaded just two videos.

I have been spending some time really thinking about what direction I want to go in with my videos. I have been doing research, reading books, and making plans. About one year ago I was getting 1,000 and more view for each video. Now I am getting 300-500 views. So something needs to improve!

I appreciate everyone's feedback! And I am planning to get back on schedule with the new year, 2012.

Thank you my friends. Arrrrr.
