		<description><![CDATA[This year's Streamy Awards featured a wide range of content made just for the web. Here are four shows to check out (if you haven't already seen them). <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=paidcontent.org&#038;blog=33319749&#038;post=224820&#038;subd=gigaompaidcontent&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Don&#8217;t call it <a href="http://gigaom.com/2010/04/12/the-streamy-awards-a-producers-apology-and-its-three-fails/">a comeback</a>, but the highly-anticipated <a href="http://www.streamys.org/live/">Streamy Awards</a> returned on Sunday night for a third time, to honor the best that web video had to offer in the last year.</p>
<p>&#8220;Web video is all about passion,&#8221; host Chris Hardwick said during his opening monologue, and there were so many shows, full of said passion, that were <a href="http://www.streamys.org/nominees-winners/3rd-annual-nominees/">either nominated or awarded on Sunday night</a>. Here are a few of them that deserve, if not statues, then definitely some consideration.</p>
<h2 id="sourcefed"><i><a href="http://youtube.com/sourcefed">SourceFed</a></i></h2>
<span class='embed-youtube' style='text-align:center; display: block;'><iframe class='youtube-player' type='text/html' width='604' height='370' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/9PotowQ0Sdo?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;wmode=transparent' frameborder='0'></iframe></span>
<p>The winner in the Best News/Informational Show category was long-standing YouTube star Philip DeFranco, but worth checking out is his fellow nominee <i>SourceFed</i> &#8212; and not just because DeFranco created it.</p>
<p><i>SourceFed</i>, a lively news recap hosted by a revolving troupe of hosts, covers topics ranging from <i>Doctor Who</i> news to North Korea testing nukes. I was first exposed to the manic energy of the show&#8217;s hosts during last year&#8217;s <a href="http://gigaom.com/2012/07/01/vidcon-2012-love-respect-and-double-rainbows/">VidCon conference</a>, and they are consistently entertaining.</p>
<h2 id="lindsey-stirling"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/lindseystomp/">Lindsey Stirling</a></h2>
<span class='embed-youtube' style='text-align:center; display: block;'><iframe class='youtube-player' type='text/html' width='604' height='370' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/0dfZ9BXaNyE?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;wmode=transparent' frameborder='0'></iframe></span>
<p>Lindsey Stirling, a one-time <i>America&#8217;s Got Talent</i> quarterfinalist, began making YouTube videos in 2007 that featured her dance and music skills. She won a Streamy this year for Best Choreography. The above video, an homage to Michael Jackson&#8217;s &#8220;Thriller&#8221;, is a great example of why.</p>
<h2 id="burning-love"><a href="http://screen.yahoo.com/burning-love/"><i>Burning Love</i></a></h2>
<span class='embed-youtube' style='text-align:center; display: block;'><iframe class='youtube-player' type='text/html' width='604' height='370' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/KB6Y4uTOMEo?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;wmode=transparent' frameborder='0'></iframe></span>
<p><em>Burning Love</em> swept the awards dolled out for Best Comedy. It&#8217;s pretty funny, especially if you&#8217;ve ever seen a single episode of reality television. <a href="http://paidcontent.org/2013/01/20/2013-the-year-of-the-web-series-second-season/">A second season</a> just got started, so you&#8217;re not too late to check it out.</p>
<h2 id="epic-rap-battles-of-history"><i><a href="http://epicrapbattlesofhistory.com/">Epic Rap Battles of History</a></i></h2>
<span class='embed-youtube' style='text-align:center; display: block;'><iframe class='youtube-player' type='text/html' width='604' height='370' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/njos57IJf-0?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;wmode=transparent' frameborder='0'></iframe></span>
<p><i>Epic Rap Battles of History</i> has been a comedy rap juggernaut since 2010; above is their Steve Jobs vs. Bill Gates rap, which they performed live during the Streamys. I mean, it&#8217;s no &#8220;Ice Ice Baby,&#8221; but <i>ERB</i> still knows how to drop a beat.</p>
