DFTBA

Here is an interview with John and Hank Green, two brothers whose "project" I stumbled across this past summer while procrastinating studying for an exam. John and Hank are both approaching the age of thirty and living in different states, they realized that over the past couple years their relationship had become almost completely textual in nature. On New Year's Eve 2007 (a year ago) they challenged each other to have no textual communication (emails, text messages, instant messages, etc) for an entire year, instead they would take turns posting videos to each other everyday on YouTube. Over the course of the year, they developed quite a following of people (like me) who discovered their videos and started watching each day. Here is the link to their website, if you scroll down a bit you will see all of their videos are archived on the left side. Go to January and watch the first couple (they are only about 3 minutes long), they are pretty funny.
