BillBoardVideos.net Website Review

Who doesn’t know about the Billboard. The most prestigious place for a music track to be. The Billboard has been ranking music tracks from 1946 and is an amazing source to know the changing taste of people. Whilesearching for interesting music videos to watch on YouTube, I came across this interesting site called BillBoard Hot 100 Video Archive which lets you browse the BillBoard top 100 charts (starting 1946) and watch the music videos of the chart busters over YouTube.

I find it really fascinating that this site has links to videos as old as 1946! Moreover, most video links posted redirects you to an ad-free, high quality video. This site really has a huge archive of YouTube videos and the best part is that the site is absolutely easy to use.

As soon as you enter BillBoard Videos, you will be amazed at the simplicity and ease-of-use factor of the site. The site is very straight-forward, simple to use, and the best part is that there are no misleading links, unlike many other sites. Many pages of the site are ad-free, while the ad-bearing pages are designed in such an excellent manner that the ads do not bear with the user’s browsing experience.

The Home page of the site has a really plain and straight-forward feel to it, which is really laudable as most of the web pages nowadays are stuffed with useless matter. You will be presented with a list of years and you can select and year’s BillBoard videos.

Once you click an year, you are presented with a long list of the top 100 grossing music tracks at the end of the year. Each video has an embedded hyperlink which when clicked, redirects you to the music video of that particular song on YouTube. I really loved the fact that the site doesn’t has any useless images or content, which makes the site load incredibly fast and makes is very much compatible with mobile browsers.

Along with that BillBoard Videos has the “Contact Us” section on that site, which presents you with an easy to use form for contacting the site administrator. I really like this feature as many sites miss on it. The songs listed in the pages are really informative as they are named under the Song Title and Artist Name, along with the rank of that particular song on the Billboard. I really appreciate this feature as this makes the site alternatively usable for research and other information fetching tasks, providing that it’s easy enough to be used by a caveman.

I really loved this site and appreciate the effort put into constructing such an amazing and full-of-content site. Putting together the simplicity in using, easy navigation and straight-forward browsing of the site, it is the best resource for searching BillBoard music and watching the videos. I would recommend this site to anyone who has a taste for music and wants to know about various amazing songs that once topped the BillBoard charts.

Huh, What?

ST 3G Speaks...
Speaker:Abhay Sharma

Whenever I ask a question to any member of the esteemed Sharma Family, the response I usually await is "Huh, What?". Seriously, I ain't kidding anyone. Try asking something creepy or unexpected to them, and they will reply as "Huh, What?".

And then the burden of repeating the question again comes forward. And if you repeat your query, they will take atleast 3.45 seconds (average) to respond. Yes really, I calculated the time using a stop watch.

Here is what Dr.B.P. Sharma speaks about this Huh, What? thingie...it's kind of diplomatic, so beware...

"Whenever someone asks you a question, reply by saying "Huh, What?" (even if you listen it), and then utilize the time he uses to repeat the question in the following tasks :-
*Why has that question been asked to me?
*If I answer positively, what can be consequences? (Same for negative reply)
*How should I answer it so as to be in the good?

And then answer the question. This is one trick for being witty and not getting spoofed by people."

That was some interesting teaching there, Dad, but really, can you ask and answer all the 3 queries within the time the person repeats his question?

Let's see:

Person:Hey chintu, can I take your PSP to my home?
Chintu:Huh, What?
Person: Can I...
Chintu (In his mind): Why has that question been asked to me? Because I have control over the PSP.
Person:...take your PSP to...
Chintu:If I answer positively, what can be the consequences? My PSP can get smashed, Papa can throw me out of the house, or I will have to bear another LOOONNNGGG lecture from Parents.
Person: ...my home?
Chintu: How should I answer? My father will scold me/ My brother will complain/ My sister has already asked to take it in her vacation, she would be arriving anytime.
Chintu:My sister has already asked to take it for her vacation, she would be arriving anytime.
Person: Cool then, bye.

Phew, that was some interesting stuff up there, but as per my calculations, the person will take 1.5 seconds to repeat the question, so you have 0.5 seconds to think and answer all three questions. You'd have to be pretty quick with that.

It would be okay to use the "Huh, what trick?" at times of distress, but would you appreciate if 90% of your questions have these types of answers? And then you have to repeat them all? Let's take a look:

Abhay:Papa, when will you get me an iPhone?
Papa:Huh, What? (He somehow asks all the 3 questions within his mind)
Abhay:When're you gonna get me an iPhone?
Papa:Get 90% or above.
Abhay:I got it.

-------------------------------------------------

Abhay:Can I use your cellphone?
Akshay:Huh, What?
Abhay:Can I use your cellphone?
Akshay:Low battery!
Abhay: I knew this was coming.

-------------------------------------------------

Abhay:When're you coming to Kota?
Dinesh:Huh, What?
Abhay:When're you coming to Kota?
Dinesh:Network Problem.
Abhay:As expected.
------------------------------------------------

You never know how irritating it gets when you get such answers, followed by a negative reply. You won't believe that till 7th grade I believed that my brother is deaf and needs an ear machine as most of his replies to my inquires were "Huh, What?".

It was after my 7th grade that I slowly absorbed the witty tricks of people like this one. And if someone asks me what this post is all about, I will just answer "Huh, What?"
