Why YouTube Sucks Donkey

I made my first attempt at uploading videos to YouTube tonight. At first, everything was grand. Then I realized that more than half my uploads were failing conversion. wtf? I tried dumping the AVIs to MP4s, but this still resulted in a very high fail rate. So, completely annoyed, I decided to try AOL's Uncut Video. It was a little slower, and the upload process was much more processor-intensive, but there's no denying the end-result: all uploads were successful on the first try, regardless of AVI or MP4.

You can check out my videos here. Thus far I've posted vids from my Bangalore trip (crazy traffic!) and from the Capitol 4th celebration in DC. Coming later Sunday will be my Europe videos. I'll post a note here when those go up as I'll also be posting several photo updates to my site around the same time.
