I've put the North-o-Meter, and some other old UsVsTh3m games, up at www.tomscott.com/usvsth3m/ - I've disabled the sharing buttons, though. No-one needs them to go viral again. In the middle part of "How To Be Popular On The Internet*", it's time to talk about giving the people what they want, about getting noticed, and about the north-south divide.

I had to do 2.5 minutes worth of video once -- just me talking into the camera -- and I didn't have the patience to do it over & over 'til I got it right. I wound up with one small edit.

Oh my gosh!! I forgot you were ever on Computerphile. I remember when that was created... I bet that's how I found you! Glad I did, Tom. Your content always makes my day better.

Am I spotting subtle *Back to the Future* references in these videos, or am I just being overly fanatical?

To a southerner the North starts at Watford Gap, to a Northerner the south starts at the Tyne. The Midlands are large and negative.

@ActualCharky 6 лет назад

I think the Tyne is a bit optimistic. The wear though... Perhaps. Certainly past the tees.

People trust white men with British accents. And yet we're the baddies in movies all the time too ;-) Coming next - "How to build an underground lair, narrated by Tom"

@alandmunk3h 6 лет назад

For "British" and "Underground Lair" See: Colin Furze

@martinsmouter9321 4 года назад

Yes, but white men with German accents are more often the villain and white men with British accents basically always play someone who knows what he's doing. This is both true for the villains and the heroes

It’s always the best to have people recommend what you do to other people. That means it’s probably something positive to them and the next person will almost always look at it positively. In the company i work for that’s the main reason people buy what we build.

i appreciate that you acknowledge that the game of striking out online is way different than its origins, that you're "out of touch with it." the biggest Nope i give is when people who are successful seem to think that the way they did it will work for anyone, anywhere, at any point in time. thanks tom!
