'Motherload' not carrying the load?
PaidContent.org reports that despite great diversification in the video clips offered, Comedy Central's "Motherload" broadband streaming service only got a meager number of visitors on its busiest week (granted that was during the holiday rush). I've been impressed with the advertising integration the network's done with the service, being one of the few to actually dare to drive traffic to an online service on TV.

I'll admit that I don't much pay attention to the stand-up bits and the "web-only" clips don't make my playlist - I typically save "Reno 911", "Chapelle's Show" and "Crank Yankers" clips.
The numbers are still small. During its best week, in early December, MotherLoad attracted 109,000 viewers.

Jason,

How goes it? Just wanted to let you know that your RSS feed has been spitting out only partial post bodies for the past 5 or so posts. Not sure if it's on my end or not, but thought I'd let you know. Good to see you back posting.

Hi John,

Yeah, I haven't been able to figure that out. I think it happens when I add additional markup to blog posts like images or indented blockquotes. Weird.

Sorry for the inconvinience, but thanks for subscribing nonetheless! Hopefully it'll work itself out in a day or so.
