Three Year YouTube Anniversary (+ Behind the Scenes)

[KennyWrites]

Excellent video that sums up the YouTube experience and legacy in general. Congrats on 3 years!

[LoveMattersMost]

Sweet sentiment-That you now carry the torch for James Flecker; pushing his message of greetings and good-will forward, to the next Century via the latest technology...I imagine someone 100 years hence, pushing this video of yours into the 22nd Century, by some as yet unknown technology. You and James Flecker have a lot in common-An Apreciation of Humanity, Art, and the Struggling Human Spirit. Thank-You Jennifer!

[brizzlestick]

you're cute :)

[flan984]

I just wish I'd found your channel three years ago, when you first started, as this is easily one of the most interesting projects I follow on youtube. As it is I have to take the time to catch up, but it is worth it, as there is always something of interest to watch. I hope you keep doing videos for a long time more. Here are my (very) belated congratulations, for your youtube anniversary and for your great work. Please keep it up. ;-)

[TheRavenOfPoe]

thank you very much! I certainly intend to! =)

[Lion117]

[TheRavenOfPoe]

[Lion117]

[SaBracaSam]

[11Agamemnon235]

Thanks for sharing some of your thoughts--they're often very interesting. I've enjoyed your poetry too. :)

[Mattsam1000]

[DickensianDreams]

User generated content such as vlogging, poetry reading, comedy skits, and political debate, has actually grown in popularity since the launch of YouTube. When the site first launched, the majority of users used the site as a way of uploading movies, tv shows and music videos. What I want to know is if there is going to come a point when YouTube are forced to delete a lot of the older videos.

Happy three year anniversary. :)

[SunnyDazStormyNitz]

Congratulations on three years.

[FuturesPassed]

I'm going to reach three years in a month or so as well. Quite a lot of change, and equally as much fun at least, hopefully.

It's cool to see other people that have been around that long still making videos as well.

Even though most of my oldest videos are private, I get that "they're talking to me in the past" feeling as well sometimes.

I hope you continue to make and share videos here!

[SpiderChad]

Congrats on 3 years of pleasant poetry and neato nerdiness! Keep on keepin' on!

[hermanzoon]

Happy Anniversary! You give the world beautiful color in what you do.

[kcatthedog]

Happy Anniversary and thank you; the poem was lovely and evocative, sort of sweetly warping the space time continuum !

[bluworm]

Yes; happy anniversary! I subscribe to your channel because I enjoy the simple, honest sincerity of your creativity. I have a tendency to complecate things, but when I watch one of your vids I realise how perfectly simple it can be.

And I look forward to more collaborations! :)

Is that the Evenstar around your neck..?

[ThreeofThree]

I missed this video! T_T And I missed my three year anniversary. AND I've just realized that I've been friends with you at least two years.

LOL I love the behind the scenes.

[karenergy]

Thank you for the three years of videos!

You are a unique and special presence on YT, and in life!

Thanks for sharing yourself and your creative works. I have enjoyed them so very much. As well as the thoughtful, intelligent community that surrounds this little "alcove" as someone said in the comments! much love, Karen xo

[ASAngelo]

Madame Raven you look lovely as a fair elf ... especially with your ridiculously rich deep blue chemise and eyes. I feel incredibly fortunate to listen here and post a comment here at this moment, however long this may be here.

Mister Joesph looks content to enliven your concerted efforts. He knows how to steal the show.=)

[janeczka]

Very happy anniversary! I enjoyed the little bloop reel and thank you for your creative and informative videos! :)

[frumpyframpton]

As with anything on the internet, the smaller it is the tighter the community, the better the content. Youtube in some ways is a victim of its own success, but at least there are alcoves where people interact, though frequently this tends towards exclusion by its nature. Congrats on 3 years, here's to (at least) 3 more =]

I like your shirt thing a lot. And your cat reminds me of one of the covers to the novel "Aura" by Carlos Fuentes.

[awesomeman098]

Happy 3 Year Jen!

Love your videos!

Been watching 2 years now,

can't wait to see more! :)

[LoveMattersMost]

Dear Jen, you are so blessed (although you don't really know it!), and you are literally bursting with talent, awareness and integrity. I hope that fate conspires to open up ever larger avenues for you to share your rare gifts with the World. My hope is that you become a Professional Cinematographer, Photographer, Author Artist, Musician, or Poet, so you can claim your place in History.

[sistaspooky1013]

Happy 3 years Anniversary :)

You always come up with so many different ideas for videos that are fun to watch :)

[fellowtuber123]

You're such a nice person to watch and listen to. :-)

Happy anniversary, I hope to enjoy more of your vids in the near future!

[ripley4O77]

Happy anniversary, I wish you many more years and just so that you know, I am one of those two people who really like your videos ;)

[Gamingnight]

[genericusername1]

[PerthPete1]

Happy 3rd Jen,

Congratulations on your continued creativity.

[tlatlicue]

Feliz aniversario =) I have been watching your videos for about a year. i first subscribed to your YT because your voice drew me in your web and compelled me to want to listen to more of it. happy happy third year it is a prime number and you are still in your prime may you give us more of your work for years to come =D

[mithiaur]

Congratulations and thank You :)

[twish1999]

Congratulations on your third anniversary, my third will be in march.... glad i found you here

:-)

[Mattsam1000]

Gratz on three years and hope you can make more vids into the future and you are right about the youtube community as long as people have internet i think there will be a youtube :). hope all is well

[TheRealGentleman]

Happy Anniversary! I hope to see many more of your videos in the future! It is indeed a pleasure to watch videos like yours; they are, as others have said, very friendly and inviting yet very engaging. You might inspire me to try my hand at vloggin' one of these days.

Also, thanks for including those outtakes. I got a good laugh out of the microphone falling. I believe I'd asked you before how many takes you usually need to make a video, and this was a nice peek into the process. Cheers!

[stars1861]

I subscribe to your channel for a couple of reasons-your creativity and slant on the world around you is wonderful. You also are a reminder that there are still civilized, cultured people around. Thank you for your posts.

[moob744]

The pity is that so many have missed out on your gem-like productions. I know I have with all my adding/subtracting of subs.

I also admire your ability to communicate in such a free and friendly way, as if chatting with a friend,but then of course you are! (those you mention in this video) :)

[yowee1234]

I have been watching your videos for about a year now, and I must say, you are one of my favorite people on Youtube. Your videos are among the most creative and meaningful I've ever seen. Keep up the good work! :)

[Artlitfan]

great reading, it is a favorite of mine as well,

and it does you well to do whatever video you feel feels right, like with anything, if you stamp your own consciousness into it, and conceive it in an original personal way, then with some luck, you will succeed, and, if nothing else, it is as pure as it can be,

whatever that's worth...  :)

[harleynanda]

Congratulations, Lady Raven, on your 3rd anniversary and thank you for reading such a fitting poem. Your description of the evolving YT site is also rather descriptive of each our own experiences herein, growing and changing in time. Yet there remains a certain core of those with whom we are close and which make up the heart of our YT experience and community. You, dear lady, are such a vital part of that to many. Continue, always. Much love to you, Jennifer, my beautiful friend.

[CleverDjembe]

It's funny when peoploe speak like it's the eighteen hundreds

[Nessysnape]

Oh feline interruptions, i think the cat wants to be a part of the video lol. Congrats on staying on being here for so long, its been great listening and watching your work. and you mentioning if Flecker had a youtube sparked a bit of an idea. I just woke up so said idea might need a bit more thought. I'll get back to you on that one. -pounce pounce- and Peter sends his love in the form of a happy purr.

[TheRavenOfPoe]

Aw Peter ^^ hehe! Thank you dear Nessa!!

[wdciii]

[TheRavenOfPoe]

Thank you so much Nicey :)

[MARSHOMEWORLD]

Such is the nature of being a creature bound to linear time. Time passes; time "flies", time "creeps"...yet it's passage is set at a finite rate (quantum physics be damned). Congratulations on a very charming 3 years my dear.

[TheRavenOfPoe]

Thank you very much Mars! :)

[DavidRandallCurtis]

Long live TheRavenOfPoe!!!  5*/faved ;)

It's been an amazing experience knowing you! And finding your strangers video in a very unconventional way..

I loved the ending, the music suited it perfectly! =)

[TheRavenOfPoe]

I am so glad you stumbled across my Stranger video! It has been so fun getting to know you too =)

Thank you! ^^

[HailRasec]

Congrats

[TheRavenOfPoe]

thank you! ^^

[telofy]

Congratulations to your anniversary!

Wow, I had this box almost full with text, but I think these four words are rather more pithy. ;-)

[TheRavenOfPoe]

hehe, they say it all really =) Thank you!

[Wwerner25]

Happy Anniversary! Your videos are beautiful especially your german recitations! I hope you´ll do a lot more!

[TheRavenOfPoe]

Danke Werner! I plan to do a new German recitation soon =)

[keanghiero]

Congratulations.

5*****

all the best

Kean

[TheRavenOfPoe]

Thanks Kean!

[proteanview]

I'm amazed how, after being on YouTube for almost 2 years, I can still stumble upon a video maker who has tons of viewers, but have never seen her/him before. There are so many 'villages'. Reminds me of living in a dense, urban area where you walk a couple of blocks and enter a different world full of folks who also think theirs it the center of YouTube.

Some folks like the the predictable.

I like your variety.

Congrats on three years.

WOOT! WOOT!

[TheRavenOfPoe]

Very true! I find the exact same thing =)

Thank you Ed!

[jenny1719]

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!! And many more! <3

[TheRavenOfPoe]

thanks jen!! =)

[zebidee55]

Very cute and cool! A big thankyou to Aeric Winter for his talent competition.

I wonder how much of what we do will survive, especially as it isn't written on paper or carved in stone? The thoughts and words of a thousand years ago have a very slim chance of reaching us. I think however, the human condition is eternal, and for all our perceptions of uniqueness, we are all essentially the same, throughout all time.

The outtakes were a wonderful addition! Good to see Joe being a proper cat!

[TheRavenOfPoe]

Thank you Michael!! Joe was being a proper cat for certain during the filming here, hehe =)

[Kasarii]

Happy anniversary. Liked your choice of poem!

[TheRavenOfPoe]

Thanks Kasarii! =)

[Regusername]

Happy anniversary, I would like to think you were being watched in a thousand years time.

You were a youtuber

You were young

[TheRavenOfPoe]

hehe, thank you very much ^^
