Tobuscus (Toby Turner) wandering the halls of Philip DeFranco 's studios If you're not subscribed to Tobuscus' TobyTurner 's channel this video may leave you a little confused. "Intro of darkness, then reddness, the whiteness" What? That is of course how Toby opens and closes his lazy vlog where he walks around (with Steven his aide-de-camp, gopher, cameraman, invisible friend). Toby doesn't say much in his daily vlog but does use a lot of words while doing so and it is usually done outside on the street where he easily gets distracted by planes and flowers (with a half-finished caffeinated beverage in one hand and the audience in the other). Of course trying to get you to watch his lazy vlogs is difficult if you are unfamiliar with his somewhat unique style although I am preaching to the choir for many who watch daily hoping to win a Tobuscus t-shirt, game or toby-related swag (annotated at the bottom where the most recent winner "congra...

In case you don't know, a little gathering of online folks has been taking place in L.A. known as "Vidcon" and here Shay Carl and the Shaytards are vlogging about the shindig. Shay and the family are going to be on stage (hopefully Shay won't throw Rocktard out into the audience like last year) and if you watch the video you will likely see all sorts of the top Youtubers. First there's KassemG, Michael Buckley from his "What The Buck Show", iJustine, Tobuscus, MysteryGuitarMan, CTFxC (Charles Trippy and Alli Speed) and many others passing by the camera. Now don't you wish you had bought a ticket? It unfortunately sold out in early May. If you're thinking ahead to Vidcon 2012 it is still a long way away and the location and other stuff has not been worked out, but you better plan on buying your ticket as soon as they become available.

Here is the compilation video that a bunch of Youtubers made for Toby Turner (aka Tobuscus! ). As always I like to see who I recognize in these. Needless to say, just about all of them if you are like me. Loved the Wheezy Waiter and Shay Carl parts. The part by Matty was surprisingly creative - hats off to your Matt. What I found interesting was the next couple of videos by Tobuscus and iJustine. It seems that Toby, iJustine, PhillyD, Matty and Tony went to the local go-kart track to celebrate Toby's birthday (poor IJ ended up with a nasty bruise on her knee) and this first video shows them at the go-karts. It's the second one that I found really interesting when they discuss what happened... After the go-karts they went to a restaurant and IJ filmed it, they discussed what happened:

From being a subscriber of both iJustine and Tobuscus (aka Toby Turner), you probably know that they are both heavily caffenated most of the time. If you watch any of Toby's "Lazy Vlogs" he is always carrying a cup of java and IJ tosses back her share too, so its not really surprising to find them at a local coffee shop (The Coffee Bean of course) before heading back to the crib to get their game on and no, I do not mean that as an inside joke. Toby and iJustine are probably two of the biggest gaming geeks on Youtube outside of the Machinima crowd and according to what IJ says in this video, apparently they plan on playing Little Big Planet 2 , although I'm pretty sure she is more at home playing Black Ops. If you missed the iphone grocery store video iJustine mentioned, that link will take you to it. I have to warn you though that it is actually 14-plus minutes of IJ shopping for groceries. You do need to be an IJ fan to get through it. Actually these iphone ...

And what is this about iJustine wanting a baby? Does that make Tobuscus (Toby Turner) her baby's daddy? But beyond the baby they picked up at the store, IJ is looking for some fancy heelys so she can show up Toby in the heely department. I remember seeing some videos where iJustine was wearing heelys from back in the day (she mentions 2007), but Toby wears them every day and heelys like a semi-professional heely person. By the end of the video IJ was doing pretty good. The video was shot around the the same time as the one posted on the Tobuscus channel (check out this post: Tobuscus And iJustine Are Dating?! Dispelling The Rumors ). I don't know if they are actually dating or not, but there is so much chatter about them maybe getting together in the comments that I'm surprised they didn't include a shot of them heely-ing off into the sunset with the little eggshaped bambino (that baby sorta reminds the little brother of Kyle from South Park, Ike). I did like the ...

"Intro of darkness, then redness, then whiteness! What?! Audience? What are you doing staring at iJustine ?" No, that's not how this latest video from Toby Turner (aka Tobuscus ) could have started but it may as well have. Recently Toby and iJustine have been seen together in several of each other's videos and that of course set tongues wagging and sent the Youtube rumor mill into a frenzy: "Have you heard that iJustine is seeing Tobuscus?" and "Toby Turner is dating IJ?!", so they made the video below, with their little Youtube love child: Yeah, like THAT'S going to dispel the rumors lol. iJustine and Toby went shopping for babies? When Toby was vlogging he mentioned that she had vlogged "the same thing" just before he did, so if IJ does post her version of the parking lot baby fiasco I will post it on here as well so we can get her story. But I think this will be the end of it. After all IJ is my secret Internet girlfriend (so s...

If you follow Toby Turner (aka tobuscus ) on Youtube you will notice that his audience finds itself in all sorts of awkward places at the start of his videos, but I don't know if we have ever been in an odd spot like the pocket of director James Cameron before. And what the heck is Tobuscus doing hanging around with the famous director of Titanic and Avatar? If you follow Toby Turner on Twitter, or any number of the other bigname youtubers like Phil DeFranco, MysteryGuitarMan, Nigahiga, you would have seen that they tweeted about meeting Cameron and Olga Kay and Shane Dawson tweeted pictures with him. It sounds like it was a pretty cool night. If you want to follow James Cameron on Twitter, he is @JimCameron . He just started tweeting on Friday and he's already got 35,000-plus followers. I took a look at some of the people Cameron is following and he started following actor Tom Arnold before he followed Barack Obama - how does Arnold rate that? lol. Olga Kay Talks With ...

If you follow Toby Turner (or Tobuscus ), you know he is a big time gamer and like everyone with even a mild video game addiction, Toby has been awaiting the arrival of the new Call of Duty: Black Ops game. Here he busts open the even harder to find Black Ops Prestige edition, with the car. Have to say, that was the SLOPPIEST unboxing I've ever seen lol. If you want to win this bad boy, you have to go on Twitter and tweet to Toby's account (that would be @TobyTurner ) the time code of the TobyGames video where he first says "I just poured own sauce all over your family".

I've been subscribed to Philip DeFranco ever since I stumbled onto his channel back in the day and thought "Hey YouTube let's me make my own channel & I can subscribe to people like sxephil?! Awesome! Where's the make you channel button?" So yeah, Phil is one of the first youtubers I started watching with some degree of regularity. Just about everything he puts on YouTube passes in front of my eyes and being of a somewhat stalkerish mentality I look for anything and everything about my favorite people. And it looks like Phil's been interviewed by NewTeevee and Phil discusses the interview below: If you want to take a look at the website with the interview, check it out here: 5 Questions With…YouTuber Phil DeFranco . The article does give some info about where Phil's at now, with his company "DeFranco, Inc." where he's the CEO (meaning Phil is the Big Kahuna) and links to an earlier article about Phil & Toby Turner (aka tobuscus )...

Toby Turner aka Tobuscus has a couple of channels on YouTube you must be subscribed to. Okay, he's got an armload of channels - there's his main channel, Tobuscus, where he has over 508K subs and he's about 62nd most subscribed of all time, but he also has his "Lazy Vlog" channel under his real name, TobyTurner (if that indeed is his real name...). That's the one the clip below is from: As expected, Toby did the unexpected. Doing his Supernote in his car and then hopping out and doing a walking vlog. He did his Supernote for Team Beard who it looks like will probably win the whole enchilada as it is down to it's last day and Team Beard is still in the lead (unless Shay Carl and his Shaytards Rebellionites can manage some last-minute heroics). As well, he was recently featured by the boys over at ST1RFRYTV in their "YouTube Spotlight" which is a tip of the hat to Turner. Stirfry has also done spotlights on Charles Trippy and Alli Speed as...

Don't you hate it when you produce a clone to do your work for you and said clone proves completely inept and unable to do the simpliest of tasks? Actually that can be looked on two ways - first, that your clone making is not very good and you need to see quality control improvements, or - second, what you based the clone on, the original you, is actually to blame. There's a sobering thought. Maybe YOU are the inept one and the clone is REALLY close to the original? Sorry, too much sci-fi mumble-jumble for me. Let's just watch Wheezy Waiter 's latest. I don't know it is simply a matter of being calcium deficient that could cause a clone's hand to fall off , but it may be that Wheezy's clone making needs an upgrade. Why I was just reading in Clone Makers Monthly (that's a magazine for clone making aficionados, but you've probably never heard of it) that with a few tweaks, problems like Wheezy's calcium deficient clone can be lessened. But the...

Sweet rendition of the popular game Assassin's Creed Brotherhood just posted by Ubisoft machinima . I don't usually get a chance to play these games (Blasphemy! says all the gamers) but I could easily be persuaded by clips like this. If you have even a passing interest in video games, you should subscribe to Ubisoft to keep up to date with their newest content and exclusives. But, also for shits and giggles, here's Tobuscus with his epic take on the Brotherhood release. 53M views! More than the actual trailer.
