At the 48th hour, they rested.... Official "Mess of Me" two-day recap!

Got an email from Corey Vidal, the Switchfoot Youtube channel manager. He's given me permission to post it in its entirety here.

Here's Corey:

Other things worth noting:

Your (new) account is now a Partner.
The new 'Switchfoot' account has jumped with over 2,500 new Subscribers in the past 48 hours, putting the channel at almost 43,000 Subscribers.
Both 'TheDrewcast' and 'FictionFamily' have seen a jump in 400+ new Subscribers since it launched (the FictionFamily channel doesn't even contain any videos yet).
It has been "Popular" for the past 30 hours (therefore being seen by non-subscribers and non-followers/fans on Twitter/Facebook).
This video, in its first 48 hours, has about 3x the stats than the previous Mess Of Me video from September had at that time.
Your primary 'Music' competition on YouTube was Weezer (getting a 4-video frontpage sponsored Spotlight), Jay-Z's new song about New York City, Britney Spears' new music video about threesomes, and a character from South Park singing a Lady Gaga song.
It was featured in the 'Video' and 'Music' and 'Entertainment' categories on Digg.com, and also Featured on the front page.
Job Ang ('Joberooni') left over 1,000 comments alone.

Sincerely,
Corey Vidal
