An anonymous source sent me this confidential “YouTube Research by Google” video that was meant for internal use only by Google. I think it’s worth the legal risk of posting, because it gives us insights into what due diligence Google conducted before buying YouTube.

This post could be entirely fictitious, but it’s absolutely fascinating anyway. It’s a fantastic scenario that would explain how Google rationalized the $1.65 purchase of YouTube. The source?
