Have you seen the founders of Fluther get interviewed on YouTube? Look now! What do you think of the video?

Asked by EgaoNoGenki (1164points) January 6th, 2010

It’s right here!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1_IHOpTFak

As of submission time, it’s only got 436 views so apparently many fellow Flutherites haven’t seen it yet.

When I first heard them say “Fluther,” their pronunciation threw me off. They pronounced it “Fl uh ther,” while all this time, I’ve pronounced it “flew ther.” I like my pronunciation better, so I’ll still sound it out that way.

(Answerbag allowed us to embed videos on their questions. Wouldn’t it be nice if Fluther allowed the same thing?)

Bwahaha; How to make apple cider?

I remember that question.

Go Fluther!

Raises fist, headbangs.

Yes to me seeing it.

No to “Wouldn’t it be nice if Fluther allowed the same thing?”

I thnk this was in the blog, but whatever, I did see it once.

Yes to visualization of said video. But the posts would get too crowded if we could embed any kind of media and detract from the actual answers. Linkin is fine by me.

@EgaoNoGenki You need to discuss your ideas for the improvements/additions to fluther with the founders, rather than here. I like what I see, and sometimes I like new additions, and sometimes I don’t. Talk to the owner/founders.

ragingloli's avatar

I guess they can call them the “flounders” now.

YARNLADY's avatar

@ragingloli Oh, hahahah, you have me laughing out loud, for real LOLFR

I liked the video. I’m glad to see who the founders are: Ben and Eric (whatever their last names are). I agree with Dr. C concerning the video attachments. I believe that sticking to the true ideal of answering the questions would be better and then adding a link. Simple is Better. I hope that the founders don’t get into marketing so much. There is already too much bombardment out there. I like the simplicity.

Ben and Eric, it’s catchy…....
The “shoe designs…..” thing at the start of the interview made me laff and I don’t know why.

Nothing like being interviewed with the sun in your face is there?

teee hee!! A great video! Fluther rocks!!

I have seen it a couple of times. No I’m not a stalker. It was research for an interview with Andrew, the other co-founder, who was not in the video.

I prefer links to pics and video.

Judi's avatar

So is Andrew’s name really Eric?
Edit: I just read @jonsblond ‘s answer.

marinelife's avatar

I liked it, although it is a little out of date.

By the way, it is Fluth-er (rhymes with brother)!

AstroChuck's avatar

I’ve seen this before. It’s interesting to see again even though it is a bit old.
@john65pennington- I believe it was taped in San Francisco. Near Fort Mason perhaps?

This question has been asked several times already.

The pronunciation is provided here. It really doesn’t matter how you feel like pronouncing it or if you like yours better. Its not going to become the correct or preferred pronunciation for the word.

If you would bother to read here and there, you would find out that the reason that fluther does not allow things to be embedded is because we prefer the flow of the conversation rather than the choppiness, among many other good reasons. Yet another presumptuous suggestion. Although its in a presumptuous question, thinking that you’ve revealed something to us that we don’t already know. You didn’t.

I thought the video was generally impressive and I noticed that Ben’s shirt was virtually unstained so that’s probably a good thing also. I’m not exactly sure where that last part came from.

“Siblings” is on the side. Its not that hard to do the homework. This question was asked as recently as a month ago and had also been previously asked.

You do know that people can translate Japanese to English, right? Just because you post insults in another language doesn’t mean we don’t get what you’re saying. Flagged.

EgaoNoGenki's avatar

@shilolo Thanks for that.

Still, plenty of Flutherites haven’t seen that question, so anyone who hasn’t seen the video has now seen it after reading this one.

shilolo's avatar

@EgaoNoGenki Can you tell me what the Japanese means? We don’t generally allow non-English quips.

AstroChuck's avatar

Let me clear things up for you. According to my translator application it says,
“Oh Vu month to 24.7 hours. 
Her behavior appears.”

Okay. Now I understand.
