Adopt a Feature: All Hail MikeandToneRP
Monday, September 7, 2009
Lots of good news to report since we
last spoke about
Adopt
a
Feature
v2
. This round, the number of submissions to the program more than doubled -- 76 videos were made about
annotations
,
tags
,
Quicklist
,
mobile uploads
, the
customized homepage
and
a
few other features -- and in all they were viewed 407,994 times. Annotations were the most popular
feature
to
adopt
by far, and you had
a
lot of fun with it:
KOHPelord
literally
brought an annotation to life
to explain the
feature
, while
DeStorm
envisioned
a
superhero named
"Annotation Man"
to save the day.
But the most-viewed video of the bunch, and thus the winner of this edition of
Adopt
a
Feature
, was
MikeandToneRP
's
exploration of tags
, featuring an off-kilter "Megan Fox," viewed nearly 80K times. Congratulations, Mike! Look out for
a
YouTube T-shirt headed your way.
In addition, many current and past
Adopt
a
Feature
