A New Face on Revver
Revver 1.1 launches today. I’d cover it, but this guy from TheDailyReel did it with poetry I can’t match.

I’ve been getting some comments disparaging Revver (the first online video site that paid video creators). That same commenter was claiming Eefoof was making him rich. I realized that I didn’t give Eefoof enough of a chance on my first glance… it just didn’t seem serious. So I’ve done more homework: User Interface: Eefoof is…
Nice clip featuring “internet superstar” Charlene Li (Forrester) ruminating about online video. (Source: BeefTV via My thoughts: I can’t believe she’s so easy on YouTube. Yes they have an audience but can they commoditize that? She seems surprisingly optimistic. Not sure advertisers need video ads to promote on video sites. I’m doing my own experiment…
Now that we’re seeing several online video sites that share revenue with video creators, it’s time for a comparison grid! For now I’m starting with Revver vs. Panjea vs. Eefoof, since they’re the only prominent sites that share revenue. I’ve also included YouTube and Google Video since they’re popular and give us a comparative base on some non-revenue…
Revver is hosting a contest for Halloween videos. I shot this one in August or September to help them promote it (Greedy Trick-or-Treaters). But I’ve already lost before judging has begin.

Is it everything you hoped it would be?

Revver 1.1 sounds nice,but it will still be the pay per click model.I emailed sean boyd(member services coordinator at revver),he said to “look for pay per impression in a couple of months,and that 1.1 will take a fair amount of testing”.At least they are moving in the right direction! * P.S. I just made my first .12 cents on Blip.tv!! Except its still pending,i guess it takes some extra financing to deal out that kind of cash? good luck all, Steve :-O
I stopped checking on Blip. It was depressing me. My revenue looks like my stock dividends during the bubble bust.
The new widget builder is definitely helpful, and I like the look of the site a lot more. Even though it’s not every thing I would like it to be it’s well on its way.
