YouTube is Seven Years Old

Happy Birthday, YouTube. You’re Seven. In internet years, that’s 49.

I didn’t get you a present because I think I only counted 5 YouTubers in this video.

YouTube Founders Revive Delicious; Flip Guy Goes Grilled Cheese

ByNalts

The duo that founded YouTube bought Delicious from Yahoo. Okay. Fair point. As far as serial entrepreneurial ventures go, this is not as intriguing as Flip Cam (Pure Digital) founder Jonathan Kaplan going into the melted cheese business. (See video). But this one’s a bit more fascinating to me because I got to meet Chad Hurley…

TubeMogul Plays Cupid Between Advertisers and Creators

ByNalts

TubeMogul is giving online-video reators a profile page to showcase their work (see my Nalts profile). TubeMogul is now helping connect advertisers with popular and talented creators for ad sponsorships or custom-content development that would give brands broader access, street credibility, and a higher-impact exposure.  I see this as far more profitable for video creators…

So Revver announced that it’s running on API now. But it looks the same (except you see Revver logos before thumbnails load). So you’ll have to take their word for it: From the Revver blog: “You’ve heard us mention this thing that is called an Application Programming Interface (“API”). That is, a set of services…

Bottom Posting Must “Die”

ByNalts

Web-standards advocate, Molly Holzchlag (molly.com) proposes, in a recent post, abolishing “bottom-posting.” I was disappointed to read that headline, until I realized she was not referring to blog posts about our bottom. In my case, I’ve been constipated for three days and I’ve consumed 3 bowls of cereal in the past 20 minutes hoping Mother…

The Internet’s New “Viral Video Villain”

ByNalts

I’ve been called everything from a sellout to Satan (this video is the best hater video I’ve ever seen, and features me with a sign “Will Video for Souls” as I transform into Lucifer). So it gives me some relief to know that the online-video community has found a new Osama. His name is Dan…

  2. I woke up with some nasty ass diarrhea this morning which I was actually glad about because first I thought it was my period & I have only had one period since november & that has to continue for at least one year for me to officially be thru menopause which will be FUCKING AWSOME so I guess what I am saying is you’re welcome for the TMI.

  3. pretty sure in internet years they are closer to 70 or 80. – you can tell by their short and selective memory

    the question is, have they been a good citizen?

    Like everyone the could have done more and they could have just done it for the lulz, but we all know they did for the money.

  4. Yeah that was an annoying video. Nothing on Community or Vlogers. I think I only saw Shane Dawson Briefly. it was 99% Viral Videos.

  6. I started supporting every effort to get away from youtube –

    perhaps it’s a futile endeavor… scine I still use it and watch stuff on it –
    .
    when you have a company like google that claims it’s profit in Ireland and all it’s losses in the US – because Ireland offers a next to nothing tax to corporations and the US allows corporations to write off their loses – I find it immoral to support such a company, I do my best.

    but the world is so screwed up I don’t know what to make of it any more – I keep seeing history all over again.

    The lies and deceptions are so thick and in your face I often wonder if I’m in a bad dream or if someone slipped soma in the water table.
