Not a surprise that 50% of people watching a video click away after a minute. TV has known that for a long time. They don’t have commercials longer than 60 seconds (in general). Good stuff to keep in mind in our church communications.

Sunday School Musical is fun by virtue of who produces it. As I mentioned in my blog, Michael David Latt has a habit of plagiarizing movie titles. I mean, this is the the guy who just produced The Day The Earth Stopped.
