Today's video of the day is a throwback to one of the all time classics of Internet videos: the numa numa video. 12 years ago this was the height of Internet video.  Video quality and broadband copacity was not what it was today, and the content reflected that.  Most Internet video 12 years ago looked like something you'd see on America's Funniest Home Movies -- not great.  Now, with full HD and faster Internet speeds  what we watch over the Internet is vastly superior in terms of quality and content.  Just imagine what kinds of videos we'll be watching on our computers in 12 years time.
