Nerdfighters

Nerdfighter Projects

Since John and Hank pioneered the whole idea of collaborative YouTube channels, lots of siblings, friends and even strangers have started up channels inspired by the Green Brothers.

If you'd like to have your project on this page, just leave a comment with a little summary about the project and of course a link to it! (Saying 'link' because only writing the name gives me more work because then I have to search for it as well and honestly it get's tiring.)

Youtube projects:

  • The Ninglings                                                                                                     - TheNinglings is a collaboration channel of 7 Nerdfighters who create awesome by interacting with each other and the community.

Nerdfighteria Documentary

A documentary about the birth of Nerdfighteria - what it is, how it was created and all the amazing and awesome things we have accomplished as a community! This is a final film project for my university degree at the Queensland University of Technology and I think it will be a brilliant way of introducing Nerdfighteria to larger and broader audiences to this awesome community. If you'd like to help or participate in away (mainly through the form of videos) please email me at: stephanie.winter17@gmail.com - DFTBA!

thehangedspirit.wordpress.com is a Blog run by a Nerdfighter wishing to do something every week to better herself, or to try something different. It has evolved past that into a place where she now talks about anything from the kids she works with, to international events, to the midseason finale of The Walking Dead.

My friend Jenni and I are following in the vlogbrothers' footsteps by alternating YouTube videos during weekdays while we're far away at different colleges. We call it "Vlogging Thru College," and our videos are filled with all kinds of nerdy discussions, activities, and friendship. We're ambitious, but dedicated to our cause (after all, it's the only way we can talk to each other now)! http://www.youtube.com/user/VloggingThruCollege

Comment by Julia Kelleher on October 2, 2012 at 2:06pm

nerdfighteriaftw.tumblr.com Is a blog made for nerdfighters to submit short (or long!) paragraphs on how nerdfighteria has affected their life positively.  This project is for school, and I am making a book about the affects of nerdfighteria on nerdfighters.  (so much nerdyness :D!)  You can send in pictures too, or even drawings that relate to nerdfighteria. DFTBA!! :D

Comment by Colton Flick on August 31, 2012 at 7:56pm

Hey there! I've got a collaborative Brotherhood 2.0-style vlog project going with a friend of mine, as an attempt to stay in touch despite the 800 miles that college has put between us. We're occasionally funny, occasionally philosophical, often pretentious, and in it for the long haul. We update every three days.

Comment by Jodie Paterson on August 13, 2012 at 12:46pm

Well hey there! :D I was thinking of a colab channel with 5-7 people where each has a resignated day (Like all the usual ones :P ) I think it would be nice to get to know new people, particularly with different cultures. 

I thought it would be cool if each week one of us had a question we had to ask the others and we would answer. If anyone is interested and has any other ideas about what we could do please contact me! :D

Here is my youtube channel if you wanna learn more about me: https://www.youtube.com/user/Edwoodiscool?feature=mhee

Hello fellow nerdfighters! Just thought I'd post this here. I used to be in the channel weekofeight but we haven't made videos in a while so I decided to make my own vlog channel. I just posted my first video a few days ago and am just trying to spread the word because I want more internet frands! Check it out if you wanna be my frand! I promise I'll be funny and respond to video responses!  http://youtu.be/o1vLYmOEsEU

New York to Texas  www.youtube.com/newyorktotexas

Hello! My name is Theresa and in April 2012, my friend Caroline and I started a channel that is like the Vlogbrothers meet 5AG. You see, in August 2011, Caroline moved from our small beach town in New York to Austin, Texas (hence the name New York to Texas). We make videos every week day. 

Comment by Hillary Meaden on July 26, 2012 at 1:57pm

Hello there! :)

My name is Hillary, and basically I have an idea! You see,
 my friend Krista and I have been talking about making a collab channel with group of five girls all together including ourselves. Our plan is to have each girl be responsible for making a video once a week on their given day. We thought about the possibility of having a theme each week but we can discuss any further ideas once we are all accounted for.These themes could range from our favourite pillow to the current political issue. The possibilities are endless and entirely up to us! 

Now you are probably wondering what type of girls we are looking for, and that my friend is a good question. Basically, we are looking for any girl that is ranging from ages 17 to 22 so that we all can all sort of relate to problems, experiences or understand one anothers point of view. It would also be great if those that respond to this post are outside of Canada and the Us, although we will not exclude your post! The only reason we ask this is because we would like to have a diversity in opinions and cultures :).  Again everyone is still welcome to respond, these are the beginning stages so who knows what will come about this channel!

Over all we hope that this channel will bring an opportunity to learn about new cultures, meet some amazing people, give us a few laughs and lasting memories and above all a great platform where we can be ourself and enjoy little slice of life.
