Puppet Tom: an IMterview with the next MySpace star
Hey, MySpacers! It's Puppet Tom, the dummy who's everyone's buddy! And in his first vlog post, he's giving Friendster founder Jon Abrams (poor guy can't get a break today) a beatdown.
What genius hast wrought this? Well, the same guy who showed it to me. So I pumped him for info. The IMterview's after the jump.
Video: Puppet Tom [MySpace profile]
Valleywag: Tell the studio audience your name or witty handle.
Puppet Tom: My real name? I guess we should really go with Puppet Tom for this.
PT is a project for my sketch comedy group Train of Thought.
Wag: Where can people find Train of Thought? Are there more videos?
P-Tom: Yeah there are. But not of PT yet. This is his first video blog.
They're all on YouTube. Train of Thought is on MySpace at myspace.com/sketchcomedy.
Wag: What else will Puppet Tom be doing on his vlog? Any other guests we can anticipate?
P-Tom: I think JA will definately be back once he heals from his beating. Puppet Tom's vlog will be about his different adventures in running MySpace and answering user questions.
Wag: Is Real Tom your friend?
P-Tom: No. We're having some fun with MySpace and the community in general. We're having a lot of fun putting these together. The goal is to be fun and stay positive.
Wag: And to get laid.
P-Tom: LOL
That wouldn't hurt.
but just in case we have a character for that too: http://myspace.com/drmarx
Wag: How much has News Corp. offered to buy you out?
P-Tom: LOL. We're going to wait and see what Facebook goes for.
Wag: So again, while we're not plugging you, that's http://myspace.com/puppet_tom and http://myspace.com/sketchcomedy.
P-Tom: Exactly.
