The point was to get a single voice, a single personality to unite their online efforts. They got that in Gabi. </p> <p>I know you said she doesn't seem geniune, but she is one of the nicest, most genuine people I've ever met and I'm so happy she won. She really is a 'voice for the people' as corny as that sounds. She is a regular girl, who gets this awesome job. She is normal. She is a fan. She is living the dream. Will there be moments when she flubs on camera? Maybe. Will there be spelling errors on Twitter? Duh. But that is what is real! That is why I love her! </p> <p>And just for the record, MTV said all along that the final five would b determined by the Tweetlevel score, votes on Facebook, AND how MTV determined we did in the challenges. The contestants knew that all along. Maybe it seemed like 'fine print' for the general public- which was obviously a snafu on MTV's side. </p> <p>Overall, the contest was a cool experience for the contestants and (I think) the fans, and it accomplished MTV's goal of establishing a Twitter presence and finding a Twitter personality. </p> <p>-Danielle<br /> @daniellesmyname, a 'loser' TJ </p> I don't think MTV missed te point at all….

This would allow your sidebar to have a column of 3 videos and be more interesting. There's a plug-in that does this ("Latest Youtuve videos"), for code refernce, but I'd prefer yours b/c it's coded to match the theme better. Actually, lots of plug-ins have the option to select multiple videos. Would you be able to use their code and add that feature? </p> Is there a possibility to add the option of how many videos from yuor channel to show (i.e. 0-10).

Looks like the buyer changed the winner to someone else, so I'm not terribly concerned. I'll probably edit these pics a little bit, though, and add a watermark or something. </p> Thanks for pointing that out!
