So, I've been doing some stuff over at Cracked lately (I'm currently in consideration for an open layout editor position (fingers crossed) and a few months ago, I collaborated with Dan O'Brien (one of the head editors) to write an episode of their After Hours web series based on an original idea of mine that I dedicated an article to on a different site.

Well, the episode has finally been released so check it out and let me know what you think. I'm credited under my name, Matthew Hayden, at the beginning in case you're wondering.

Nice! I'll watch it later.

I thought you stopped writing for them?

I enjoyed the video. I think the fact that I had a similar discussion with me last night made it even better for me. Good work!

EDIT: I had a similar discussion with my girlfriend, not with me, lol.

That was rather entertaining.

Way to go Panda! Is this something you get paid for, or is it gratis (if you don't mind me asking.) I always wondered about that with Cracked.

Thanks guys. Cracked always compensates people whether it be with the articles, topic pages, and even the craption contest so I got the same rate that I normally get for writing a feature article (which because I've written a certain amount of articles for them is a different scale to a new writer).

Josh, I stopped writing the main feature articles for the most part because the workshop process to get one of those things published is pretty drawn out and grueling, but anything else they need I'm game for.

Satsui asked that. Idiot, gawd.

Seriously though, congrats.

DOB is one of my favorite columnists, but I haven't had the time to read cracked in ages, I have a lot of catching up to do. Sad

So he did, sorry about that Satsui. I've had the flu all week so I'm still a little delirious.
