A History of Online Video
Wowza. I thought I was on top of online video. I’m hanging my head in humility. Check out this post featuring a timeline of online video by Steve Bryant in his new blog, “ReelPopBlog.”
Included is this dreamy graphic. Click to see it up close.
You think that graphic is dreamy? I think it fails in its raison d ‘etre. It’s too hard to read in its full size. A graphic is supposed to support text and visually impart information. I can’t read this thing with my monitor lighting set to max. Doesn’t anyone own a colorwheel any more?
Okay- on second view it says too much and therefore too little. But it’s the first of its kind. What would be more interesting is to show growth by share. So we can get a relative sense if YouTube is growing as fast as the market.
Hah, yeah, I’m no graphic designer, that’s for sure. Hence the list of links in the rest of the post. But thanks for reading!
