  • esaks, on 04/03/2008, -4/+15I'm liking the GV.com stuff more than WLTV these days.

    • xlar54, on 04/03/2008, -4/+3Because some dork declares "Good People Day"? Thats pretty damn scary - even for digg...
    • mphree, on 04/03/2008, -0/+1"...some dork..."

      Did you watch the video? No, really, did you?
      • bcclist, on 06/11/2008, -1/+1yeah, he's a tool. I feel like this guy existing is an April Fool's Day joke 2 days late. I'm all about being positive and good people but give me a fcking break, Gare.
  • nickwest, on 04/03/2008, -5/+6Everyone needs to celebrate 2008's Good People Day! For the good of mankind please!
  • itbytes, on 04/03/2008, -4/+5So many good people, so little time! I better start early.... well maybe not too early, I'm not much of a morning person, maybe after my first coffee.
  • hunee, on 04/03/2008, -5/+5and since i am in asia and it's april 3 in here so i guess i have to start Good People Day! yay!
  • briansolis, on 04/03/2008, -4/+12He is the Tony Robbins of Web 2.0!!!! Rock n Roll Gary!

  • twilazoned, on 04/03/2008, -4/+6Go Go Gary! You're GOOD PEOPLE!
  • iceman0113, on 04/03/2008, -3/+5Why only one day? Why not be kind and good everyday? Seems pointless to just be good for one day...
    • thailand1972, on 04/03/2008, -1/+1It means we can be nasty to good people everyday apart from today - hurray!
  • XXXXXXXXXXXXXX, on 04/03/2008, -17/+9Good People Day can suck my dick and so does your face.
    • OdinMW, on 04/03/2008, -3/+1man ***** you ... it is kind of gay but w/e i respect people who do the right thing even if its not cool
    • Freckled, on 04/03/2008, -0/+1we just found someone unworthy of being celebrated
  • ma11man, on 04/03/2008, -3/+6Lets BRING THE THUNDER!
  • AManWithNoName, on 04/03/2008, -6/+3So, does Gary count as a good person by making this day or what? Isn't that a paradox of some sort?
  • DrTiki, on 04/03/2008, -4/+19Props to Gary. He is good people.
  • kru1e, on 04/03/2008, -8/+7***** the RIAA?
  • digitallysick, on 04/03/2008, -5/+4Sorry, no good people left
  • spmyke, on 04/03/2008, -3/+3Bring the thunder, baby!
  • Richandler, on 04/03/2008, -9/+47Hmmm... Another BS "day." How about we stop all these this day we do this and that stuff and start acting like decent, smart human beings all year round.
    • thailand1972, on 04/03/2008, -2/+1RAISING AWARENESS is what "good people" do for one thing for one day a year, then forget about it the next day.
    • ralphthemagi, on 04/03/2008, -1/+2Because doing it on the internet means you don't really have to do anything. All you have to do is Digg it up, and somehow that makes everything good...er.

      See, in the old day you actually had to do something on these BS days. Now, thanks to the internet, all you have to do is know that that exist. Or send it to someone else. Copy & Paste makes the world a better place.

      Metagoodness FTW!
      • thailand1972, on 04/03/2008, -0/+3You're right - bumper stickers, wrist bands, lapels, turning off power 1 hour a year etc - all empty gestures IF you're not backing up these sentiments with daily actions.
  • krolls, on 04/03/2008, -7/+4Finally a EAST COAST .commer gets some attention (Facebook does not count)
  • rogerdonaldson, on 04/03/2008, -3/+5Link is dead, any mirrors?
    • xlar54, on 04/03/2008, -2/+3Youre not missing anything...some moron going on and on endlessly about "Good People Day"
  • xensoldier, on 04/03/2008, -10/+3I could care less, it's my birthday in an hour :3 !!! ***** the RIAA birthday to me.
  • dball48, on 04/03/2008, -11/+12***** off
  • AmericanEnder, on 04/03/2008, -14/+16Am I the only one who has a major problem with this guy? The fact that he broadcasts himself all over with such obnoxious announcements like "good people day" makes me sick. Shouldn't we be praising the work of good people EVERYDAY? At that, do I need him to remind me of this? Plus the fact that people follow him like lemmings...C'mon.
    • KDAY12, on 04/03/2008, -5/+6Hes one of the most annoying humans I have ever heard speak...
    • illegalamigo, on 04/03/2008, -0/+3I agree with both of you, the lemmings that don't think independently will bury us into oblivion...
    • OpaqueMurdock, on 04/03/2008, -1/+2I watched this and yes, something about him made me "nervous". He does seem to have a bit of a strange vibe, self promoting, aggressive. I also saw another video where he compares people creating web 2.0 services to innovating hip hop artists of the mid 80s... *blink* Uh, What? I understand the point he was trying to make (personal brand ugh.) but he seems blind to why people may sorta think thats a flawed comparison. The music Industry is not something you want to model you success as a creator on... ever.

      He could be a great guy, and this is a somewhat neat Idea... but still.
      • iancorey, on 04/03/2008, -0/+2No one who says they are going to "San Fran" is a good person.
    • flipdoubt, on 04/03/2008, -0/+1Beware users, G-to-tha-V serves the MCP. Comply or face deletion!
    • beerncheese, on 04/03/2008, -0/+1Video blogs in general are absurd. Is it that you are too lazy and illiterate to actually type your message? Or is it that you are vain and you hope a hollywood producer and/or single supermodel happens to fall in love? In either case 1) you're wasting my precious bandwidth, 2) you're wasting my time (because I can't skip past the boring/redundant parts, and because I read faster than you talk) 3) you're ugly and annoying.

      Oh, and congratulations on wearing not one, but two wristbands. I'm going for three. Wish me luck.
  • pandorazboxx, on 04/03/2008, -4/+5Great idea, but why not give people some notice, like say more than 1 day?
  • jarinudom, on 04/03/2008, -6/+6Gary is hella rad
  • rkef, on 04/03/2008, -9/+20Am I a hater if I'm completely turned-off by this fellow, and whatever brand of snake oil he's selling? Please stop yelling at me...
    • xrEE, on 04/03/2008, -0/+3very rarely do I post an internet laugh as a very short appreciation comment, but that one got me.

      LOL
  • Vorin, on 04/03/2008, -4/+11whoa now, that's a little too much enthusiasm for me.
    if the idea is to act like that, then i don't have the energy. I try to do my best with treating people with respect and honoring authority, but i don't see how GPD will help the world.
    • gregwilker, on 04/03/2008, -1/+2you should watch his other videos ... by all accounts this one is tame.
  • itrichs, on 04/03/2008, -3/+16who told gary he can make up new holidays?
    • gregwilker, on 04/03/2008, -2/+3I did, cause I print the calendars!
      • bamafun, on 04/03/2008, -0/+1i love it !! go Greg ! At least someone is trying something - it sure beats doing nothing ! People are stressed out, discouraged and need some hope so I'm all for any attempt at improving lives!
  • marcucuarcu, on 04/03/2008, -4/+7whatever he's on...i want some...
  • ThePerkins, on 04/03/2008, -3/+5Is this the guy who took the kids from Superbad to that party and got beat up? I don't know why, but I can't make myself like or respect him. He's pretentious.
  • thailand1972, on 04/03/2008, -8/+12That video exhausted me. The guy wore me out half way through, and he actually got more intense at the end. I thought his eyebrows were going to rub together too much and actually catch fire.

    And can he like, you know even finish a....you know what, I just want him to complete just one ....no scratch that, you know, let's make a day tomorrow, let's call it, let's call it "GET TO THE POINT DAY"
  • ralphthemagi, on 04/03/2008, -5/+7You know, he's cool and all... but I think his internet celebrity status has gone to his head. What next? Adopt some kinds from Vietnam?
  • xlar54, on 04/03/2008, -6/+11This guy is ***** weird.
  • fudged71, on 04/03/2008, -3/+11April 3rd ? WHAT THE ***** !?

    how about you put it at least a month ahead of when it is posted? when people actually know about it? spread it around the net? so hows that novel coming along?
    • xeyne, on 04/03/2008, -1/+3Huh? Gotta a big, uh, big stack of papers there?
    • flipdoubt, on 04/03/2008, -0/+2...working on your, uh, character development a bit, maybe?
  • MrLeEx, on 04/03/2008, -8/+4this guy is a genius
  • WhatsUpWithJack, on 04/03/2008, -6/+10*sigh* A for effort, F for execution. Buried, as will most every other piece of bloggerish that comes from GEE VEE DAWT CAWM!!
  • todduh, on 04/03/2008, -4/+2It's my birthday! I'm Good People :)
    Thanks Gary
    • fatrandy13, on 04/03/2008, -0/+1buried for it not being my birthday
