Interview with John Chow (almost)
written by John Chow on August 30th, 2007
Ian Fernando has posted a video interview he did with me. The funny thing is I can’t remember doing this interview. Anyways, I figure you might enjoy this interview while I wait for Greg to upload my interview with Leo Laporte.

Reply to this commentYeah me too! The video might have been very cheesy, but at least the fella got some traffic heading his way…

Oh in any case this was a great move by Ian Fernando
haha, I have seen the guy moving here and there for a bit now…seems like he did hit the spot
Well done Ian.
Reply to this commentYeah that was a pretty good idea and will certainly garner him some attention.
Reply to this commentIt was! John is just the strong silent type
Reply to this commentScary and disturbing. But, at least he gets to experience the John Chow Effect!
Reply to this comment“Scary and disturbing”.
Reply to this commentThese were the same words that came to my mind initially. What is your take on this John? Flattered or a little scared?
Definitely agree on that one! He gets a boost in traffic!
Reply to this commentYeah a little bit freaky but certainly a great way to get exposure and quite neatly put together.
Reply to this commentI wanna experience the john chow affect :’(
Reply to this commentWell just put together your own video of an interview with John Chow!
Infact why not do a video duel of Probloger vs John Chow or something like that - sure to get you lots of attention, exposure and the desired John Chow affect!
Reply to this commentI am dying to see your interview with Leo. This video was a good appetizer.
Reply to this commentI agree!
Congrats to the interviewer!
Reply to this comment* Yawwwwwwnnnnnnn*
Reply to this commentDude work on your audio next time …
funny pics though
Reply to this commentWhen someone does something like that…
You know you’ve made it!
I’m waiting for my day when someone conducts an interview using my pictures.
Reply to this commentYou should do a complete (not almost) interview video John! Maybe the John Chow podcast? I thought about doing a weekly video like problogger does, except my subject is…well skiing not as popular as making money
Reply to this commentIf he pronounced John’s last name properly it would have been convincing.
Reply to this commentWhat’s the proper way to say it?
Reply to this commentPretty funny in a way - but the audio needs to be up a notch
Reply to this commentI thought everyone knew how to say Chow. Good idea to get a JC link back I guess.
Reply to this commentyup…he definately gain from the link jc gave him
Reply to this commentThat is pretty good. I’d give him a high thumbs up for making that video. Well, maybe John will start posting all the youtube videos that we start making with his pictures….
My evil roots are coming alive!
Reply to this commentThinking of, I have a great idea for some funky videos. (Hint: use Photoshop)
Flame him all you want but I thought it was at least creative.
Good job Ian.
Reply to this commentAnd also the first to do it - I’m sure lots of people are reading this thinking why didn’t I think of that!
Reply to this commenthaha funny stuff!

Reply to this commentIt was creative work from ian, using screenshots and video to do a interview.
Reply to this commentJohn, I am making a video response to the above video, it’s got no photos but maybe you will find it interesting?
Reply to this commentgreat video, very creative!
Reply to this commentAhah great idea Ian… got you posted on JohnChow.Com, mission accomplished!
Now if John was so amused by this that he’ll grant you a real interview, you’ve really hit the jackpot!
Reply to this commentJohn - Thanks - I knew this would catch your attention soon! For everyone I will take in your ideas - especially with the audio. I just started video marketing and I was just experimenting, as it was a second video that I made - maybe I just need a better camera, sorry for pronouncing your last name wrong too John my apologies.
Reply to this commentJeez John, how did you not remember your own interview?!?!
You must have drank too many of those small wines…
Reply to this commentThat beer plugin must be working well for him!
Reply to this commentVery clever, good job on getting the John Chow effect for free
Reply to this commentVery funny!
Reply to this commentLOL Nice!!! good editing.
Reply to this commentI wonder how long it took to edit this all together? From the exposure he’s got on here though I’d say it was worth it.
Reply to this commentThat was pretty creative!
Reply to this commentAt least John has a sense of humor about the interview.
Reply to this commentYeah do you think he’ll post a reply?!?
Reply to this commentfunny interview. great stuff Ian.
Reply to this commentVery interesting link bait
Reply to this commentYah, he certainly gets credit for creativity lol.
Reply to this commentThat’s pretty funny.
Maybe John could do a weekly video post responding to readers questions on how to make money - a quick one minute tip for the week? Just a thought but after watching the video it got me thinking.
Reply to this commentThat is a creative linkbaiting method
