Search Marketing and Weird News

My name is Todd Mintz, and I’m a Weird News addict. With my Facebook friends (and feel free to friend me if we’re not already friends), I share my favorite “oddball” stories, and I’ve clearly developed a reputation as a top-level curator within this content niche. Beginning with the “original” Weird News story that took the Internet by storm during the middle of the last decade (prior to the rise of social media), I’ve been fascinated by these stories. The rise of Facebook and its “relevance” algorithm allows me to be exposed to many such stories each day, and I share the ones that I feel jive best with the peculiar nature of my persona. Now, I know quite well that not every Weird News piece that I share will resonate with many folks…or even with any folks. For example, this David Lynch Pabst Blue Ribbon advert won’t resonate with people who: never saw Blue Velvet (one of my all-time favorite movies), aren’t beer snobs (which I am), don’t remember the old Pabst Commercials (I do), and don’t know anything about the life of Dennis Hopper (since life imitated art in many of his films). IMO, if you watched this video and didn’t understand it…sorry, it’s your loss. :.)
