With more than 72 hours of footage uploaded every minute, it’s physically impossible to keep track of the content on YouTube. But in YouTube Guide, the Daily Dot will curate its five favorite finds for each workday.

1) Alberto Belli, “For Your Consideration”

Anne Hathaway is practically a shoo-in for the Best Supporting Actress Oscar, but she’s not taking any chances. With one final video (to the tune of “I Dreamed a Dream”), she reminds the Academy just why she deserves that award on Oscar Night.

2) Kickstarter, “Oh hey, I didn’t see you there”

Oh hey, I didn’t see you there reading this article, but Kickstarter noticed how many of you start off your campaign videos in a similar manner. There were so many of them they placed them into a montage that ranges from the believeable to the completely ridiculous.

3) cdza, “History of Wooing Men”

Men have a history of wooing women through song over the years, but as it turns out, the ladies have done their fair share of wooing, too. While the earlier tunes are woo-worthy, things start to go downhill once you hit the mid-90s.

4) Nerdist, “All Star Celebrity Bowling: RoosterTeeth vs. freddiew/Key of Awesome/Nerdist”

On the latest “All Star Celebrity Bowling,” Chris Hardwick brought an all-star YouTube cast together to compete in a game filled with Lebowski references, Play-Doh, Freddie Wong special effects, and rapidly decreasing sobriety.

5) Official Comedy, “Super Bowl XLVII Trailer (Harbowl & Warrior Mashup)”

The real story this weekend isn’t the game pitting the 49ers against the Ravens, but rather the matchup between the Harbaugh brothers as they are forced to play against each other in a mashup with Warrior (as well as the biggest game of their lives).
