MSN - 0, Live Earth Fan – 1

Previously, I blogged about MSN’s total failure in taking advantage of opportunities surrounding their online coverage of LiveEarth. Among them were the significant lack of performance videos available for viewing and their horror that people would post their own LiveEarth videos on YouTube. Any that got posted were soon taken down.

A day later, a small force of nature had posted his own LiveEarth site on YouTube. Find it and you are presented with a professionally presented mini-site of six pages, with every performance by every artist around the world. It puts MSN to shame.

I emailed the owner and asked him about it. Simple, he replied. After MSN took them down the first time, he simply reposted with all LiveEarth tags taken out.

I’d tell you how to find it, but why help MSN as well?
