Good Morning: A Fun Way to Listen to Music on YouTube

uWall wall

Good morning, dear readers. Are you ready for a day that's a little warmer than it's been lately? Look for a high of about 42 degrees today and enjoy the 40's because they won't be back until Tuesday.

If you're spending more time indoors than usual, let me recommend spending some quality time with uWall, www.uwall.tv, a innovative way to listen to music on YouTube. Click on an artist's image on uWall and the service will create a playlist of  music and videos by that musician and start playing. You can also search by type of music, artist's name, or artist's country. uWall is a fun way to listen to the vast collection of music that's on YouTube.

YouTube Movie Reviewer Wanted

All Life Is Local is looking for somebody to review YouTube movies. Some of the most imaginative and evocative films are produced and shown on YouTube. We want to share those discoveries. The Story of a Sign by Alonso Alvarez (below), about a young man and his emotionally powerful encounter with a beggar in Mexico, is a film that makes my eyes teary, no matter how many times I see it. This is a film about how kindness and creativity from an unexpected place can make an invisible man be seen. It's about how a few words make a difference, if they are the right words.

The YouTube movie reviewer job is a volunteer position. These short reviews will appear once a week, and are more like introductions than comprehensive reviews. A few sentence long introduction to the film would work for some videos. An important part of this internship is discovering gems on YouTube. While fortune may elude you, we can promise both fun and some fame. If you're interested in this position, please email us a sample movie review of something you've discovered on YouTube (no more than 250 words) at the contact address to the right or to alilinfo at ftml dot net.
