Just wanted to share the latest channel update. Mostly background items that I want to share.

1. End Card - You've been seeing something similar for a while now, but starting on Sunday, you will see the new end card with annotation links to a bunch of stuff like channel, subscribing & appropriate playlists. As a result, the subscribe annotation you will in the top right corner will go away.

2. Hiking videos are getting a tweak, check out the difference between the upcoming hiking video and the last one. The next video will have a few more change. Let me know what you think.

3. These changes are all about adjusting my channel based on the analytics I've been seeing on my channel. I've written a post on my google+ about the last Year over Year analytics last week. Basically I've doubled views per month since last year and mobile is getting more important.

4. monetizing videos - since everybody can put ads on their videos, I've gone and looked if they actually are worth it. Since november I turned off the in-video ad for new uploads, and starting in january, I'll probably turn off the ones that start at the beginning of a video. Once they reach a month old, I'll monetize them. And since mobile views is growing, those ads don't even show up anyway.

Avoiding Chores is a collection of interests from a group of guys who do everything possible NOT to do chores. This involves getting into a number of interests such as: hiking, camping, outdoors, bushcraft, running, beer reviews, live hangouts and long term projects like living off the grid or stone carving.
