Today Belongs to Brookers

Folks, making videos is hard. Just ask Ken or DJ how many days, or even weeks, it can take to complete a 4-minute piece.

When showtime comes around it's literally a matter of "Ready or not, let's see what you got." And when it's your work on the screen it's easy to feel like you're watching a newly-born foal trying to stand on its own feet for the first time.

Other times you gotta take a deep breath ... and hope viewers don't start throwing seat cushions.

Posting videos at YouTube.com can earn a would-be filmmaker either almost instant acclaim or thousands of blisteringly negative reviews. That's why Brookers deserves mention.

Love her
or hate her, Brookers is a 20-year old auteur from Worcester, Massachusetts who's created her own phenomena with nothing more than a web cam, a silly grin and a small galaxy of imagination.

Here's the first video that got the YouTube world buzzing about Brookers.
