I have this weird hobby where I’ll think about some random topic that I want to learn about: then for anywhere from the next day or two to the next 30 minutes I’ll surf Wikipedia, YouTube, Pinterest, etc., and do not a deep dive but more like a surface level dive; I get distracted or disinterested or something, idk, and I just forget about it and move on.
What if I took the random topic that’s popped into my head, and instead of just browsing Pinterest for half an hour and forgetting about it, I made a video about it? In the style of how horror video series are often named on YouTube, call it Random Things from Around the Internet.
worth doing bc the process of writing/making the videos will improve your ability to learn about the topics that interest you
i think it would be nice if you can actively be witty, let’s learn about how the Tibetan tribes were affected by Genghis khan and how they are connected to Tibet, china, central Asia and the rest of the Indian subcontinent!
If you have the personality to pull it off… sure.
That sounds pretty interesting, I suppose it could be fun as a hobby if you record your screen and audio while casually reading a wiki entry/browsing whatever while adding your own comments. Plus it’s pretty low effort too.
Though from you example those videos are usually pre-written so I guess you’re thinking of something more edited and more demanding. Anyway, depending on the topic and writing those videos can be fun
What have you got to lose? Sounds fun. Give a try, maybe you’ll like it, maybe you won’t. No harm in finding out.
So, basically, Half as Interesting? Lmao
It’s like the opposite of the similar 4 hour things people do so sure why not. Sounds fun
