2009-06-28
hey what's up guys it's Marcus Brownlee here from mkbhd and welcome to another tech channel of the week episode the original touch channel of the week by mkbhd and tech channel of the week number eight is Macintosh tips and this is our channel page right here and being the tech channel of the week number eight I'm gonna go ahead and give you guys a quick tour of their YouTube channel and I also happen to have a website that I'll show you in a second so let's go ahead and up top you'll see they have a banner and yes they are a YouTube partner or I say they because this channel is run by two people eebee and scooter they team up and form a number of video reviews and tutorials that have to do often with the Apple experience so I'm just gonna go ahead and run down their channel specs here on the left hand side they have 1552 subscribers we can get them definitely way past that 1600 1700 really quick guys they have a great channel and you guys know they they have a lot of videos up if you've seen this before so I'll keep going they just hit 33,000 channel views a little over that and you can see in the channel description McIntosh tips is devoted to making videos that are Apple related number one and to help users have helped Apple users have a better Mac experience so you'll see the video featured on their channel is actually a version of I stick ease of our stickies they did a a video review on that which is kind of like a tutorial and if we scroll down a bit here on the left hand side they have a they have a number of contact buttons they do have a Twitter and I'll go ahead and throw their Twitter link in the description so you guys can see that and I do remember them going live a few times in fact the first time I found this channel it was them during the week of streams we're streaming live and I was in the chat room and I was like wow what is this McIntosh tips so I went out and find that found their channel and it was it was really a surprise to me how great these videos were so if we scroll down a little bit more you will see that they have sixty-two videos out which is a good number of videos and if we go ahead and click on the most viewed videos section you will see one of my favorite videos which I actually did favorite was the Sony VCR I think it was this one the Sony DCR unboxing and review video was it yeah I think it was this video and basically this video is really really good they used I believe iMovie and a number of different things ScreenFlow for all their videos and they really get into the editing and they spend a lot of time with their videos and they definitely get the best quality out of their videos as possible so there's no messing around on this channel so we'll go back having fifteen hundred subscribers they're able to become a YouTube partner and they have autoplay and everything they have the YouTube shadows box and all that also unlike the name suggests they do have a little more than just Mac os10 tutorials and reviews although a lot of them are having to do with Mac OS 10 which I find helpful a lot of them are actually quite interesting and now if we go ahead and look at the the contact us section they do actually answer most questions if you go ahead and send them a message they'll probably answer your question so that's very helpful and they do have their own website which allows you to contact them I'll go up to that and the other tab here which is Macintosh tips.com with the Z again and I'll put that in the description as well so you guys can check it out it's a pretty good website very well laid out looks like it they you know they put a lot of time into creating it and I they even got the Google Ads on it and everything so it works well so going back to their channel one last thing is that they have a number of playlists the first of which is product reviews which are basically you know they have a lot of subscribers they have enough subscribers that companies are willing to send them products for reviews so they've picked up a few ranging from iPhone and iPod and Mac Mac accessories that you guys can check out product reviews for that if you have similar products the next playlist is Macintosh tips at the Apple Store and I was always confused about those Apple Store videos if I bet you if I tried to film myself in the Apple Store near me they just kick me out there's really not that many people in the Apple store that they wouldn't care what's going on oh yeah they didn't have some creative little videos that are filmed at various Apple stores and the last of the tutorials which has five videos is iLife oh nine tutorials and overviews now they don't just do our fo9 tutorials so they bundled the iLife oh nine sweet tutorials in this one five playlist little section here so you guys if you're new to Mac os10 you're definitely going to want to check out this tutorial series other than that this is a really great Channel I'm glad I was able to find it in the first place and I'm a proud subscriber of Macintosh tips and they are a proud subscriber I guess of mkbhd and you can be of both too so thanks for watching this tech channel of the week number eight I believe and I you can check out their website which is in the description and their YouTube channel and other than that that is it guys so thank you for watching this tech channel of the week number eight and have a nice day peace
