So Best Buy’s got this contest running called TechUOut. Upload a video about why your dorm room needs some techie refurbishing, and you could win $15,000 for a Best Buy shopping spree. So yeah, imagine nailing that new iPod, humoring yourself over HDTV and indulging your lust for Molly Ringwald films all in one big fat wad-blow.

Not all entries are a waste of infinite tube space, though. We liked this one, which just goes to show there’s still plenty of audience creativity to milk in the vast universe of CGM.

I’m 66 and the biggest lesson I learned too late wasn’t about saving more money or traveling sooner – it was understanding that every time I said ‘I’m fine’ when I wasn’t, I was teaching people that my feelings didn’t require their attention
